With the combination of Charter F2 and Axcess in the quantities provided, the seed treatment mix can be tailored to specific needs without the need for additional products to be ordered separately in large container sizes.

Axcess at 0.2 fl oz/100 lb seed offers suppression of wireworm activity on seed and young seedlings. For early season protection of seedlings against injury by aphids, use Axcess at a minimum of 0.8 fl oz/100 lb with Charter F2. Use the higher rate to provide increased length of protection and from heavy insect pressure and from wireworms Easy-to-use and easy-to-remember quantities and ratios of Charter F2 and Axcess providing tailor-made protection from insect damage or injury without the need for additional products.
