Professional Weed Control: Using Gol, SC Herbicide on Beets

When managing beet crops, weed pressure is the biggest obstacle to reaching high yields. Being a selective systemic herbicide, it provides the necessary safety margin for the crop while effectively eliminating unwanted vegetation.

Operational Performance and Selective Action

Gol, formulated as a suspension concentrate, is designed for post-emergence leaf application. This is a crucial feature for any grower: you need a product that hits the weeds hard but doesn't cause phytotoxicity to the crop. It is a highly professional choice when you need to clean your fields after the weeds have already emerged.

Target Weeds and Efficacy

This herbicide excels at controlling a broad spectrum of problematic broad-leaved weeds.

• Common lambsquarters and Redroot pigweed (key competitors for nutrients).
• Shepherd's purse and Common chickweed.
• Purple deadnettle and Pale persicaria.

Since it acts systemically, the active ingredient, metamitron, is quickly absorbed by the leaves, leading to the rapid decay of the target weeds.

Field Tips for Application

To get the best results, timing is everything. Apply Gol when weeds are in their initial growth stages (cotyledon to 2 true leaves). Because it is a suspension concentrate, it mixes perfectly in the spray tank, provided the mixing order is followed. It does not cause clogging issues in nozzle tips, which is a major 'plus' for operator efficiency.
