Spinach Seed Treatment 
Growers often have difficulty in securing a good stand of spin- 
ach. This is often caused by damping-off of the young plants 
and may be controlled by treating the seed with Arasan Dust 
before planting. Use this dust at the rate of 4 oz. to 100 pounds 
of seed. 
However, this treatment will not prevent young spinach plants 
from burning off during the hot summer months.
