| Seedling (0-5 leaves) | Treat if greenbug colonies are present on 10-20 percent of plants, and visible yellowing or spotting on leaves is present. |
| Plants 6 inches tall to boot | Treat if greenbug colonies are beginning to cause red or yellow leaf spotting on lower leaves of most plants AND parasite numbers are low (less than 20 percent of greenbugs parasitized). |
| Boot to heading | Treat if greenbug colonies are present on most plants, and have killed one lower leaf,and if parasite numbers are low (less than 20 percent of greenbugs parasitized). |
| Heading to hard dough | Treat if greenbug colonies are present on most plants and have killed two normal-sized leaves, and if parasite numbers are low (less than 20 percent of greenbugs are parasitized.) |
