24. Critical points in usage of Cheers
TIME OF APPLICATION
What will happen if we apply a little earlier/later
than the recommended time of application?
DOSE OF APPLICATION
What if we apply at a higher or lower dose?
What if we apply only one spray of Cheers?
1st Spray (Just before flowering) Increased vegetative
growth
2nd Spray (During fruiting)– Increased reproductive
growth
25. Cheers- Time lag for results
Results can be seen after 2nd-3rd day from
the date of application
Optimal results could be obtained at 7-8 days
after application
26. Do weather conditions affect Cheers
uptake?
Weather conditions greatly influence
PGR uptake
Application in the evening or in early
morning often enhances uptake
because of greater drying period
