Herbicidal activity spectrum:

effective against many broadleaf weed species.

Highly sensitive (85 — 100 % mortality): field forget-me-not, common burdock, bindweed, pale dock, kidney dock, purslane (species), wild radish, field buttercup, arrowleaf (species), field sorrel, field mustard, common starwort, field chickweed, darnel (species), marshmallow, monochoria, Theophrastus knotgrass, prostrate knotweed, chamomile (species), field horsetail, yellow mustard, common chickweed, wild cabbage, umbrella plant, shepherd’s purse, blue vervain, sow thistle (species), common nightshade, sunflower (species), trifoliate orange, sticky cinquefoil, daisy (species).

Weakly sensitive (up to 59 % mortality): field dock, common ragwort, purple deadnettle, self-seeding poppy, veronica (species), bird’s-foot trefoil.

Mode of action:

penetrates weeds primarily through green tissues, has contact action.

Speed of action:

visible weed suppression symptoms depending on weather conditions appear within 1 — 7 days after application, complete weed death occurs approximately 10 — 14 days later.

Protective period:

the product provides protection for crops from the moment of application until the emergence of new weed growth.

Application specifics:

application should be carried out under favorable growing conditions (from plus 10 to plus 25 °C). Cool weather slows visible effects.
