HOW TO USE SODIUM SELENATE 
The use of Sodium Selenate on greenhouse cut flower 
crops has proved so successful in controlling aphids, red 
spider and other mites, foliar nematode and Chrysanthe- 
mum midge that its use will no doubt greatly increase. 
A deadly poison, Selenium is toxic to all forms of animal 
life and most plants although plants may absorb limited 
amounts without injury. Ageratums, Chrysanthemums, Car- 
nations, Cyclamen, Snapdragons, Geraniums, Hydrangeas 
have all been successfully treated with Sodium Selenate. 
Roses and other woody plants do not lend themselves to 
treatment. 
Sodium Selenate is available in a powder that may be 
mixed with water and in a dry form called P-40 which is 
a mixture of superphosphate and 2% Sodium Selenate. 
On bench crops use one ounce of Sodium Selenate per 
100 to 110 square feet. This amount should be dissolved in 
29 gallons of water and applied at the rate of one quart per 
square foot. This material may also be applied with the 
Hozon Proportioner, a siphon attachment for a watering 
hose. For this method, one ounce of Sodium Selenate is 
dissolved in six quarts of water for dilution to approximately 
25 gallons through the siphon and hose as it is applied to 
100 square foot of bench. Keep solution from foliage and 
stems, or syringe off immediately after applying. This is the 
most economical method. 
The P-40 or dry form, which is the most popular, should be 
applied when the foliage is dry at the rate of 3 pounds per 
100 square foot of bench space. 
For Pot Plants the best method is to dissolve one ounce 
of Sodium Selenate in 30 gallons of water and give a moder- 
ate watering approximately !/, glass to a 5 inch pot. 
Freshly planted stock should not be treated until 2 or 3 
weeks after planting. Do not apply a second treatment in 
less than 3 or 4 months. Under certain conditions and with 
some plants it is advisable to cut the strength of the treat- 
ment in half and give two treatments two weeks apart. 
Tests indicate that soils treated with Sodium Selenate 
under normal conditions of watering and leaching are safe 
for vegetables for human consumption after four to six 
months.
