Brassicaceae (eg. Cabbage, Turnip, Rape, Swede, Broccoli etc.)
Caprifoliaceae (eg. Honeysuckle)

Solanaceae (eg. Pepper, Tomato, Potato, Chilli, Datura, Nicotiana, Aubergine etc.)
Vitaceae (eg. Grape)

No adverse effects have yet been recorded on any of the plants tested.

However, the following points should be noted if SBPI is to be used more often than the recommended frequency:

• Frequent re-applications may result in a concentration of the product ingredients where treatments dry at the run-off points.

• This could result in the appearance of small brown staining on some leaf and petal edges and on the bottom of some fruits. In most cases, this is not permanent and if necessary can be removed by washing in water.

• Frequent applications on certain delicate plant species might result in a small amount of leaf and petal scorch where the product accumulates at run-off points.

The manufacturer strongly recommends that when SBPI is being used for the first time, a small area of the plant or crop is tested first.
