|---|---|---|---|---|
| Apple | Fire blight suppression (shoot blight) | 546 g/acre | 45 d | 12 d |
| Apple | Vegetative growth control (shoot growth reduction) | 328–546 g/acre | 45 d | 12 d |
| Cherry | Vegetative growth control (shoot growth reduction) | 546 g/acre | 20 d | 12 d |
| Strawberry | Runner initiation suppression | 54.6 g/acre | 21 d | 12 d |
Adjuvant requirements, compatibility notes, and mixing restrictions from the official label. Always confirm against the official label PDF before mixing.
| Guidance | Adjuvant | Rate |
|---|---|---|
| Required | AMS (ammonium sulfate) Kudos 27.5 WDG must be applied with ammonium sulphate (AMS) at a ratio of 1:1 to Kudos 27.5 WDG if the water source used for spray applications contains high levels of calcium (hard water). | 1:1 ratio to Kudos 27.5 WDG |
| Recommended | AGRAL 90 Use a standard spray adjuvant, preferably a non-ionic surfactant (e.g., Agral 90) at a rate of 0.5 mL/L or 0.05% v/v | 0.5 mL/L or 0.05% v/v |
| Recommended |
| HiActivate® NIS Recommended in conditions where uptake would be reduced: drought conditions, low humidity, hot temperatures, or particularly lush growth |

| Recommended | AMS (ammonium sulfate) For consistent performance on apples, add one kilogram of a spray grade ammonium sulfate (AMS) for every kilogram of Kudos 27.5 WDG. | 1 kg AMS per 1 kg of Kudos 27.5 WDG (1:1 ratio) |
| Recommended | AMS (ammonium sulfate) For consistent performance on cherries, add one kilogram of a spray grade ammonium sulfate (AMS) for every kilogram of Kudos 27.5 WDG. | 1 kg AMS per 1 kg of Kudos 27.5 WDG (1:1 ratio) |
| Recommended | non-ionic surfactant Use a standard spray adjuvant, preferably a non-ionic surfactant, to improve leaf coverage and performance consistency. | – |
| Recommended | non-ionic surfactant The use of a non-ionic surfactant and ammonium sulphate conditioner is recommended. | – |
| Recommended | AMS (ammonium sulfate) The use of a non-ionic surfactant and ammonium sulphate conditioner is recommended. | – |
| Compatible | AGRAL 90 Kudos 27.5 WDG can be applied with non-ionic adjuvants (e.g., Agral 90) at a rate of 0.5 mL/L or 0.05% v/v in conditions where uptake of prohexadione-calcium would be reduced such as drought conditions, low humidity, hot temperatures or if particularly lush growth is present. | 0.5 mL/L or 0.05% v/v |
| Do not mix | calcium (including gypsum) or boron sprays DO NOT tank mix Kudos 27.5 WDG with calcium (including gypsum) or boron sprays, as a reduction in growth control may result. | – |
