galleon elliminates water hyacinth effectively
By Wade on 08/05/2014
I fought water hyacinth for several years by raking my one acre pond but was losing the battle. I finally decided to use an herbicide. After trying Sonar which was recommended and did not work on the hyacinth, I used Galleon. I applied a pint of product directly into the water, and within about two weeks, all of the water hyacinth was brown and dead. I highly recommend the product for ease of application, directly into the water, and effectiveness. The reason for four stars rather than five is the cost. It only comes in one quart size and I only needed a pint for the one acre pond. But, the cost was worth it to restore the pond.

The application rate of Galleon SC Aquatic Herbicide will vary whether you are applying directly to bodies of water, treating submerged or floating weeds, applying for post emergent control of bank weeds, etc. Without knowing where and what you are treating it is difficult for us to advise on the best dilution rate. Please refer to Table 2 for bodies of water application rates and for foliar applicatoins, you will use use 2-5.6 ounces per acre (0.05 fl oz to 0.13 fl oz per gallon) for spot treatment of post emergent weeds, you will mi. Since Galleon SC Aquatic Herbicide has been currently discontinued from the manufacturer, we would recommend contacting SePRO directly for further instructions.
