Use and Care Manual
High Volume Foliar Applications Through Handguns
Using a power or hand pressured spray gun, apply a foliar wetting spray contain-
ing 1 to 1 1/2 gallons of this product in sufcient water to make 100 gallons of total
spray mix. See mixing chart under Mixing Directions for preparing small amounts of
this 1 to 1.5% spray mix.
Spray to give thorough coverage of the foliage, wetting all leaves and green stems
to the drip point. Depending on the plant size and foliage density, the total amount
of required spray is usually 100 to 200 gallons per sprayed acre.
For best results, applications should be made when woody plants are actively grow-
ing. This is most likely to occur for a period after full leaf in the spring to early sum-
mer when moisture and temperature are favorable. For multiora rose control, the
best time for treatment may be expected during the early to mid-owering stage.
The required spray volume will increase substantially if the brush exceeds 5 feet in
height. Brush over 8 feet tall is difcult to treat efciently. Large brush or trees may
be controlled better by basal or mechanical methods.
Foliar Broadcast Sprays (Ground Equipment and Helicopter)
Apply 1.5 to 4 gallons of this product in enough water to deliver 10 to 30 gallons total
spray per acre. Use a boom type or other broadcast spray equipment that provides
uniform spray coverage over the top of the foliage and make applications when
plants are growing well. The favorable period for treatment is most likely to occur
after full leaf in the spring and continue into early summer, depending on soil mois-
ture and other conditions. Follow-up treatment with foliar high-volume or basal type
treatments may be needed, especially if treating under less favorable conditions.
Aerial Application (Helicopter Only)
Use Nalco-Trol or equivalent drift control additive as recommended by the manu-
facturer of the Microfoil boom, Thru-Valve boom, or equivalent drift control system.
Thickened sprays prepared by using high viscosity invert systems or other drift
