Cambistat

Basal Drench

Basal Drench Application  

Basal drench is the only recommended method of application for small trees, but it can be used for trees of all sizes. Caution must be used when applying to trees on slopes to prevent Cambistat from moving to off-target plants.

Basal Drench Equipment list

  • Tape measure
  • Dosage Rate Cards
  • Note Pad for record keeping
  • Reservoir tank - 3 to 5 gallon container for ready-to-use Cambistat / water mixture.
  • Graduated measuring units - We recommend three sizes for different dosing volumes; you should purchase a plastic 1000-ml measuring cup, and both 500-ml and 1000-ml graduated cylinders.
  • Pouring unit - 2 quarts or larger with a slow flow top. Even coverage around tree is crucial for good results.
  • Protection tray - Large enough to prevent spillage while transferring liquid between containers.
  • Excavation equipment - To create shallow furrow around the base of the tree. A small shovel and a pointed hoe work well.
