ArborFos - Injectable Phosphite Fungicide Capsules
Arborfos is a phosphite formulated fungicide that inhibits fungal growth through stimulation of the plant’s own natural defense systems. Research indicates that Arborfos may also elicit a type of systemic acquired resistance response. Although it imparts no actual phosphorous nutrition, Arborfos treated trees tend to develop healthier leaves, roots and stems as it reduces disease pressure. Arborfos is registered for ornamental, forest and certain crop trees to manage many diseases including root diseases.

Quick estimate:
Capsules Needed ≈ DBH ÷ 2
Example: A 20-inch DBH tree typically requires approximately 10 capsules.
Note: Capsule dosages, also known as micro-injectors, are calculated by measuring the tree diameter at breast height, or DBH, in inches, then dividing that number by two to determine the total number of capsules.
