F-68 is a viable culture of naturally-occurring beneficial soil micro-organisms which provide a balance of helpful active soil organisms immediately. You do not have to wait for these organisms to grow naturally. Without these beneficial soil micro-organisms, stressful and often fatal conditions can develop for plant life.
F-68, when handled and applied properly, can stimulate the soil conditions that are favorable for nutrient release, water penetration, salt leaching, disease reduction and nematode suppression.
How F-68 Soil Conditioner Works
The micro-organisms suspended in the F-68 solution remain in a latent state for weeks, and then activate immediately upon contact with water and damp soil, thus furnishing many of the vigorous organisms that are present for a healthy soil. The newly introduced beneficial micro-organisms, a combination of bacteria, algae and fungi, reproduce rapidly.
DEVELOPMENT PRODUCT
Before being introduced in 1968, F-68 Soil Conditioner was tested for five years by Fenic Co., Inc. personnel and farmers throughout the United States and Mexico. F-68 was developed to help correct soil salinity, decompose residues, release tied-up fertilizer nutrients and enhance germination of seeds and establishment of seedlings and transplants.
F-68 was developed for CONVENTIONAL agriculture. The formula is an all-organic product. F-68 was developed to help correct soil salinity, decompose residues, release tied-up fertilizer nutrients and enhance germination of seed and establishment of seedling and transplants.
HOW TO USE
F-68 Soil Conditioner is applied at the rate of one gallon pr acre per crop
in the soil for annual and perennial plants.
DO NOT USE CHLORINATED WATER.
F-68 CONTAINS LIVE MICRO -ORGANISMS.
IMPORTANT TIPS:
- THE SOIL MUST BE THOROUGHLY MOIST FOR THE PRODUCT TO BE EFFECTIVE.
- BEFORE BEING USED, APPLICATION EQUIPMENT SHOULD BE CLEANED, RINSED AND FREE FROM PESTICIDES AND FERTILIZER RESIDUES.
F-68 IS FOR AGRICULTURAL USE AND HAS A SHELF LIFE OF 85 DAYS.

PRODUCT APPLICATION
WHEN PLANTING
For dry-land farming, mount tank on tractor. Mix a solution of 20 gallons
water and one gallon F-68 Soil Conditioner for each acre you will plant.
Apply at planting, using spray nozzle mounted on planter. Direct the spray
into furrow, immediately wetting the seed as it drops into furrow, before
furrow closes. The soil must be VERY moist.
WHEN IRRIGATING
Use 1 gallon per acre to wet soil
- F-68 can be:
- Dripped into raw canal or well water. Adjust dripper to apply one gallon of F-68 per acre.
- Sprayed from an airplane after field is flooded or after a heavy rain, by using one gallon of F-68 with 2-5 gallons of dechlorinated water per acre.
- Injected deep into moist soil with at tractor applicator ate the rate of one gallon of F-68 to 20 or more gallons of water per acre, followed by irrigation.
- Injected into overhead or drip systems at the rate of one gallon per acre.
- Sprayed on the seed at planting, into moist soil with one gallon of F-68 plus 20 gallons of water per acre.
