E-2 Herbicide

NON-CROP AREAS

Rights-of-way, roadsides, industrial sites, fence rows, non-irrigation ditch banks, recreational areas and similar non-crop are as:

For control of broadleaf weeds, mix at a rate of 2 to 5 pints of this product per acre in adequate water to thoroughly saturate all weeds with spray mixture. This may require a spray volume of 50 to 300 gallons of water per acre. Apply any time between the time when plants come into full leaf (spring) to when the plants begin to go dormant. Best results are obtained when weeds are young and actively growing. Do not cut weeds until herbicide has translocated throughout the plant causing root death. For small broadleaf weeds, use the lower rate. Heavy, dense stands require the higher rate with high water volume. For small (spot) applications with small tank sprayers, apply at the rate of 2-1/4 ounces of this product per gallon of water and spray to thoroughly wet all foliage.

For control of woody plants:

Apply to both stems and foliage any time from the time foliage is completely matured until the time plants start to go dormant. All leaves, stems and suckers must be completely wet to the ground line for effective control. Regrowth may be anticipated on the more resistant species. Add 4 to 5 pints of this product per acre in adequate water to thoroughly saturate all weeds with the spray mixture. This may require a spray volume of 200 to 600 gallons of water per acre depending upon the height and thickness of the brush. Mix thoroughly before spraying.

PASTURES, RANGELAND and GRASS (HAY, SILAGE)

For these uses, mix at a rate of 2 to 5 pints of this product per acre. Retreatment may be made as needed; however the maximum seasonal application rate is 2 pounds 2,4-D acid equivalent per acre per application. Minimum of 21 days between applications, limited to 2 applications per year. The preharvest interval (PHI) is 7 days (for cut forage for hay)

Best results will be obtained if this product is applied at the germinating stage of weeds. Under favorable conditions, this is usually 7 to 10 days after planting these grasses. Reduced control can be expected if weeds are allowed to reach 1” in height before application or if germination of weeds occurs 10 days after application. Do not use on bentgrass, susceptible grass pastures (such as carpetgrass, buffalograss, or St. Augustine grass), lespedeza, wild winter peas, vetch, clover, and alfalfa pastures as injury will occur.

When perennial weeds are reaching maturity, mowing and allowing some regrowth will enhance control. Difficult to control weeds and brush may require repeat applications. For pasture renovations, wait 3 weeks per quart (2 pints) of this product used per acre before interseeding or injury may occur. If grasses are grown for seed or for seed-down purposes, do not apply after grass reaches the joint stage.
