The
Granules sink
directly to the bottom, visibly expand over a period
of several hours to a day, and stratify a layer of
herbicide at the bottom. Herbicide is released
slowly. As weeds grow,
herbicide is absorbed through leaves, stems and
roots.
Herbicide
absorption is quite rapid, occurring in just a few
hours under good growing conditions. Once absorbed,
the herbicide is trans-located throughout the weed to
the growing parts of leaves and roots. Growth at
these parts is halted.
With
growth halted the weed dies. Kills the entire weed
roots and all. Initial effects occur in 7 to 10
days, indicated by brittle stems and curling leaf
tips. Full kill will occur in 3 to 5 weeks. Once
dead, weeds sink to the bottom and decompose.
All
season long....
The Granules
are effective any time susceptible weeds
are actively growing. When applied in spring and
early summer, less material is required, less dead
weeds occur, and a longer weed free period will
result.
Successful
applications can be made in late summer and fall.
The full effect of late season applications may not
be fully evident until the following season.
These
Granules are a selective, root killing, systemic herbicide. Controls submersed,
immersed, and rooted floating weeds in recreational lakes and ponds. Use
around docks, boat hoists, swimming beaches and shorelines. There is a
wide margin of safety with respect to fish.
