How to Use GSP Esteem Fungicide:
Shake the product bottle well before opening to ensure a uniform mix.
Measure the required quantity of GSP Esteem Fungicide as per the crop-wise dosage table.
Fill the spray tank with about 70% of the required clean water.
Slowly add the measured product into the tank while stirring continuously.
Top up with the remaining water and mix thoroughly until a uniform spray solution is formed.
Spray evenly on both upper and lower leaf surfaces using a fine-mist nozzle.
Re-apply at 10 to 14-day intervals if disease pressure continues or new symptoms appear.
Best Time to Apply:
The best time to apply GSP Esteem Fungicide is at the first sign of disease symptoms, or as a preventive spray when weather conditions favour disease development — such as high humidity, leaf wetness, cool nights, or extended cloudy spells. Spray during the early morning or late evening hours when temperatures are mild, the weather is calm, and there is no harsh sunlight, to ensure maximum leaf coverage and minimum spray drift.
Frequency of Application and Re-entry Period:
Frequency of Application: Apply GSP Esteem Fungicide 2 to 3 times per crop cycle at 10 to 14-day intervals, depending on disease pressure and crop growth stage.
Re-Entry Period: Do not enter treated fields for at least 12 to 24 hours after application without proper protective clothing.
Compatibility: GSP Esteem is compatible with most commonly used insecticides, fungicides, and water-soluble fertilizers. Avoid mixing with strongly alkaline products like Bordeaux mixture, and always perform a small jar test before any tank-mix.
Safety, Precautions and Handling:
Wear hand gloves, a face mask, full-sleeve clothing, and protective eyewear while handling GSP Esteem Fungicide.

Avoid direct skin, eye, or mouth contact with the concentrate or its spray solution.
After completing the spray, wash hands, face, and exposed body parts thoroughly with soap and clean water.
Always spray downwind so the mist drifts away from the operator; never spray against the wind direction.
Keep children, pets, livestock, and unprotected persons away from the field during and immediately after spraying.
In case of accidental ingestion or contact, rinse with plenty of water and consult a doctor with the product label.
