Precautions (For more information, see Chapter 4. Herbicides Used in Ontario, page 23 and Chapter 5. Notes on Adjuvants, page 69).
-
Apply to young, actively growing weeds when temperatures are above 15°C.
-
Complete coverage is necessary to achieve control.
-
Use the low rate for annual weeds that are small (3-5 leaf).
-
Ude the high rate for larger annual weeds and perennial weeds.
-
Weeds that are near maturity, flowering, dormant or hardened due to drought or temperature stress are more tolerant to EcoClear treatments and may not be adequately controlled with a single application.
-
A repeat application is effective for extended control of perennial weeds following initial burn down.
- Avoid application to reactive metals.
