    Q
    I mixed Pramitol 25E Herbicide at 8 oz per gallon of water. If I don't use the entire gallon of mixed solution within a day it crystallizes and plugs my sprayer. Is this normal?
    A

    That is correct, you should only be mixing up the amount of solution you plan to use at that time and no left over solution should be stored in the sprayer. Up to 24 hours is the most you would leave a product in solution for and one like Pramitol 25E will start to settle and break down in the sprayer the longer it is left sitting.

    Q
    Can I mix Pramitol 25E with Roundup Pro to help weeds from growing in my flower bed?
    A

    Pramitol 25E is a soil sterilizer and would kill all plants it comes into contact with and within typically a 5 foot reach of where it is used. This is only for bare ground applications in areas where you want no plant life to grow for up to one year, such as gravel driveways/walkways, airport runways, etc. 

    Broadleaf weeds in a flower & ornamental beds will be treated very differently and much more carefully than would be needed in a lawn. Any broadleaf weeds (like clover, violets, dandelion, bittercress, etc) have to be hand pulled or directly spot treated with a general weed control product or roundup. Since broadleaf weeds are so similar in nature to most plants found in bedding areas, you would not be able to spray over the top without harming both. Any grassy weeds can usually be controlled with an over the top broadcast spray in flower beds with no worry of harm coming to them, but you will always want to check the product label for your specific species to be sure it’s safe. We recommend using pre-emergents as that is the most effective way to stop weeds especially in flower bed areas where chemical options are limited. Below you fill find links to liquid and granule options for your bedding areas.

    Q
    Is Pramitol 25E better than RX43 mixed with RoundUp for parking lot control
    A
    Pramitol 25E https://www.domyown.com/pramitol-25e-p-1602.html is a total vegetation killing product and will eliminate anything growing where you spray it. The Pramitol will keep anything new from growing in the treated areas for up to 1year. Caution should be used during application as some leaching in the soil could occur and destroy nearby desirable vegetation and turfs. If you have existing plants in the areas, then you can use RoundUp Quikpro to mix in for a faster burn down.

  • Asked by Ronald from Sunbury, Pa
    06/17/2019
    Q
    What is the best way to apply Pramitol 25E to a gravel covered driveway? Would it be faster to use a hose-end sprayer?
    I have a gravel driveway that is approximately 5,000 sq. ft. I have to spray Roundup on it about every 3-weeks as weeds and grass keep coming up. If I use a 2-gallon hose sprayer it would take hours to cover all the bare gravel, grass and weeds. Is there a quicker way to apply it (e.g. - Hose end sprayer, Sprinkling Can, Etc.)? Thanks!
    A

    You could potentially use a hose-end sprayer to apply Pramitol 25E if you can correctly calibrate your sprayer and avoid any potential contact or runoff to any desirable plants. For susceptible perennial grasses, you would use 12 - 18 oz per 1,000 square feet in sufficient water. For hard-to-kill perennial weeds and grasses, you would use 22 - 29.4 oz. per 1,000 sq ft. It is most important to use the correct amount of herbicide for the area you are treating and then using sufficient water or rainfall to irrigate it into the soil than it is to use a specific amount per gallon of water.  Please refer to the product label for complete application instructions.  Another option would be a backpack sprayer.

  • Asked by Ben from Hiawatha, Ks
    05/08/2019
    Q
    How much Pramitold 25E do I need for an acre of gravel when mixed with Roundup for burn down of existing weeds?
    Have 3 acres of gravel lot with fringe edges worst for broadleafs, I estimate I need to spray about 1 Acre.. Considering Pramitol 25E with RoundUP sprayed at 75G water per acre, a 1-10 ratio for pramitol. Many weeds have been up for over 3 mos, reason for RoundUp. Most area will be sprayed with wand. PRIORITY IS PERMANENT AS CAN KILLING THE GROUND. What do you recommend for water rate per acre, Pramitol + Roundup rates for aggressive kills? thanks, I am a non-expert.
    A

    You are pretty close on your application needs. The Pramitol 25E Product Label states for under asphalt and similar areas: Apply Pramitol 25E uniformly at the rate of 7.8 gals. per acre (23 oz. per 1,000 sq. ft.) in a minimum of 100 gals. of water. Use the lower rate to control annual and susceptible perennial weeds and grasses such as downy bromegrass, oatgrass, goosegrass, quackgrass, puncturevine, goldenrod, and plantain. Use the higher rate to control hard-to-kill perennial weeds and grasses such as johnsongrass, bindweed, and wild carrot.

    Mixing roundup in will definitely help with the burn down of the already actively growing and emerged weeds. Using most roundup products around 2-5 oz per gallon of water will yield a strong enough solution for any burn down. Be sure to keep the Pramitol outside the dripline of any desirable vegetation on the property like trees/bushes/shrubs etc.

    Is it best to cut the weeds down first before applying Pramitol 25E ?
    Does pramitol or weed killer work best and most efficiently if the weeds are cut first before application or does the product need to also be absorbed into the leaves to best effectively kill the weeds completely?

    It is recommended to mow 2 days before  Pramitol 25E application and you can mow as soon as two days after application.

    Pramitol spilled on carpet in SUV, what is needed to clean the carpet from smell and residue?
    A

    Per the Pramitol 25E manufacturer, you should wash the area well with soap and water and allow it to dry completely.  They recommend putting a barrier over it once it has dried (a towel or a floor mat) for at least a couple of weeks.

  • Asked by Ronaldo from Plainview, Tx

    Q
    Can I apply Pramitol around a dirty lagoon of a feedlot and around wells?
    I want to eliminate weeds around a lagoon which does not have anything live in it, but I use the dirty water to irrigate my crops, could that contaminate the water and possibly damage my crop? Here is also windy, could strong winds carrying out applied soil particles damage crops?
    A

    You should not apply Pramitol 25E around any wells or cisterns as it could contaminate ground or drinking water. Pramitol is very persistent, so you should never use or spray it anywhere near desirable plants or cropt. To treat around water that you will use to irrigate crops, you will need to use herbicides labeled for this application. You could use a non-selective aquatic herbicide such as Rodeo Herbicide which is safe for use around drainage ditches, and there is no restriction on the use of treated water for irrigation, recreation, or domestic purposes. Be sure you use an aquatic approved surfactant when using Rodeo, such as DyneAmic Surfactant.

  • Asked by Gary from Boise, Idaho

    Q
    Can I use Pramitol 25E to kill bluegrass and the put down groundcover?
    I plan to plant ground cover in this area (in new top soil). As long as this new ground cover has a shallow root system, will this work or would I be better advised to use round-up?
    A

    You should not use Pramitol 25E anywhere where you want plants to grow for at least one year. This is considered a soil sterilant and it lasts up to a year in the soil. If you are wanting to renovate an area, then you can use something that does not persist in the soil, such as GlyPhoSel Pro. We recommend waiting 2 weeks for the target plants to die completely before removing the dead plant material and putting down your groundcover or other desirable plants.

    Q
    Would Pramitol 25E kill thistle? I could plant hay and not have the thistle after a year?
    What would be the solution for a 500 gal sprayer? I have an old hay field that the Canadian thistle took over, and I tried everything but the thistle keeps coming back.
    A

    Pramitol 25E  is a total vegetation killing product and will eliminate anything growing where you spray it. The Pramitol will keep anything new from growing in the treated areas for up to 1 year. Caution should be used during application as some leaching in the soil could occur and destroy nearby desirable vegetation and turfs. You should use 50-100 gallons of water per Acre, or at least 1-3 gallons of water per 1000 sq ft. You would not be able to plant hay or other desirable plants in the treated area for at least one year.
