Clearys 3336 WP Question

[Forrest]

I mixed up a batch of this stuff to use last Thursday. When I went to use it my injector was clogged, and I couldn't deal with it at the moment. I kept the concentrate and would like to use it tomorrow morning.

Does anyone know if this is ok? Once mixed does this have a shelf life?

[Jon]

The label says nothing about how long a mixture will last. It does repeatedly state that the product be suspended in the water when applied, though. In other words, agitate the concentrate pretty well before pushing it through your system.

[Forrest]

thank you. I will spray it tomorrow morning.

I have use week old mixed Clearys and it seemed to work just fine.

[Candace]

Forrest where did you buy yours? On the net? I need to get some but I'd prefer to buy a small bottle of it, not a huge amount.

[Forrest]

Candace, a friend who purchased some and gave me some of his. It is really pricey stuff. Sadly, what I just mixed up is the last of it.

I don't know how long the mixture will work, but I have been warned to keep the unused powdered form very dry to preserve it, so would assume there is some degradition over time. I have used 2 to 3 day old mix with no harm to the plants (seedlings) but I'm not sure it was effective since I did have heavy loses.

I keep Cleary's mixed up all the time in a one gallon pump sprayer and it stays effective
for a looooong time. I just have to remind myself to shake the container really well before drenching my mounts.

[Kitty]

what is clearys?

[Jon]

It's a fungicide that's safe for use with orchids.

I've noticed that it does stain pretty badly. Anyone else get this problem?

[Jon]

I've not noted staining being a problem.

The Cleary's I have is a thick tanish-whitish liquid that makes a thin milky white solution when mixed. Never leaves a stain but sometimes it leaves a light white residue sort of like hard water residues but more easily washed off.

all i could find on a quick read through of the label is that it says "For best results, use spray mixture the same day it is prepared."

I guess this is pretty much what I'm experiencing. It does come off after a while.
