Development time at 68° F. (20° C.), 10 to 15 minutes for fine-grain films.
Larger amounts of Metaborate may be used with corresponding reduction of developing time (up to 10 grams of Metaborate per liter with a developing time of 5 minutes at 68°) although slightly coarser grain size will then be experienced.
