Product Overview

Ranger Pro with 41% Glyphosate (same active ingredient as Roundup) is a complete broad spectrum non-selective post-emergent professional herbicide. Ranger Pro is the generic of Roundup Pro, and is equivalent and just as effective as the name brand, only much less expensive. This generic roundup will kill most weeds and grasses. It is formulated as a water-soluble liquid with surfactant, therefore no additional surfactant is needed. Ranger Pro moves through the plant from the point of foliage contact to and into the root system. It is then absorbed into the soil and breaks down naturally, and therefore will not spread through the ground and kill neighboring plants.

Details

Product Description

Ranger Pro is a postemergence, systemic herbicide with no residual soil activity. It gives broad-spectrum control of many annual weeds, perennial weeds, woody brush and trees. It is formulated as a water-soluble liquid containing surfactant and no additional surfactant is needed or recommended. It may be applied through standard equipment after dilution and mixing with water or other carriers according to label instructions.

Time to Symptoms:

Ranger Pro moves through the plant from the point of foliage contact to and into the root system. Visible effects are a gradual wilting and yellowing of the plant which advances to complete browning of above-ground growth and deterioration of underground plant parts. Effects are visible on most annual weeds within 2 to 4 days, but on most perennial weeds may not occur for 7 days or more. Extremely cool or cloudy weather following treatment may slow activity of this product and delay development of visual symptoms.

Stage of Weeds:

Annual weeds are easiest to control when they are small. Best control of most perennial weeds is obtained when treatment is made at late growth stages approaching maturity. See the “WEEDS CONTROLLED” sections of this label for specific weed rates.

Always use the higher product application rate in the range when weed growth is heavy or dense, or when weeds are growing in an undisturbed (non-cultivated) area. Reduced weed control may result from treating weeds with disease or insect damage, weeds heavily covered with dust, or weeds under poor growing conditions.

Mode of Action in Plants:

The active ingredient in this product inhibits an enzyme found only in plants and microorganisms that is essential to formation of specific amino acids.

Cultural Considerations:

Reduced control may result when applications are made to annual or perennial weeds that have been mowed, grazed or cut, and have not been allowed to regrow to the appropriate stage for treatment.

Rainfastness:

Heavy rainfall soon after application may wash this product off of the foliage and a repeat application may be required for adequate control.

Spray Coverage:

For best results, ensure spray coverage is uniform and complete. Do not spray foliage to the point of runoff.

No Soil Activity:

Weeds must be emerged at the time of application to be controlled by this product. Weeds germinating from seed after application will not be controlled. Unemerged plants arising from unattached underground rhizomes or rootstocks of perennials will not be affected by the herbicide and will continue to grow.

    Killing grass

    By John on 07/16/2010

    Verified Purchase

    First of all, ordering this product was VERY easy and speedy. We used one and a half gallons for about an acre and a quarter. It worked beyond expectation. We checked after a week and the grass and weeds were all brown and dead. Our ratio was a quart to 24 gallons. We used a sprayer mounted on a 4-wheeler. We are extremely pleased.

    Basically a "generic" Round Up

    By John on 03/31/2011

    Verified Purchase

    Shipping and packaging were without any problems. Entire transaction was very professional. The product is a very affordable version of Round Up. Round Up Pro is a 48.7% concentration where as Ranger Pro is 41%. The price advantage of Ranger Pro is 2.5 gallons for less than one gallon of Round Up Pro. The 41% is more than adequate for killing off virtually everything.

Q
How long before a rain is Ranger Pro safe to apply?
A

The product label for Ranger Pro Herbicide does not specify a certain amount of time but it does say that heavy rain soon after application may require a repeat application. You just want to make sure you have at least 6 hours of dry weather after you apply Ranger Pro to ensure its absorbed and not washed away, but up to 24 hours with dry weather is ideal for maximum uptake.

Q
Will Ranger Pro kill cactus? If not, what will?
A
Ranger Pro Herbicide is not labeled for cactus. We have only recently branched into herbicides and do not have an answer for you as to what will kill cactus. We recommend calling your local cooperative extension office for advice. The folks at the extension are familiar with the plants in your area and can usually provide the most accurate information.

Q
Will Ranger Pro kill buckthorn if applied to a cut stump? Must it be used undiluted?
A
We are not exactly sure of the dilution rate or how well Ranger Pro will work for the use you are describing.  We would ask that you call the manufacturer since they are the experts on their own product and would know better than we would.  We don't like to guess at an answer if we are not sure.  The manufacturer is Monsanto Company and you can reach them at (314) 694-1000.

Q
I bought Roundup "super concentrate" some time last year

It plugs up my sprayers with slimy film substance floating around in mixture. is this common or did I get a bad batch of Roundup? Mixed 2 1/2 fl.oz per gallon of tap water. I have been using Roundup for several years and never had this experience until I bought my last gallon "purchased 2010"

A
We are not the manufacturer of Round Up, we are just a retailer.  Although we do not sell RoundUP, we do sell professional versions that have the same active ingredient as RoundUP for much cheaper though.  We have not heard of any of our customers every tell us about it leaving a slimy film so we are not sure what the issue could be.  You may want to look at Ranger Pro, one of the professional weed killers that we sell.

Q
My barrel for sprayer is plastic but the label cautions against metal sprayers, what about metal parts ?
A
The Ranger Pro product label actually states "spray solutions of this product should be mixed, stored and applied using only stainless steel, aluminum, fiberglass, plastic or plastic-lined steel containers." The manufacturer does prohibit the use of this product with galvanized steel or any other steel other than stainless steel. You should check with the manufacturer of your sprayer to be sure that the metal parts on your sprayer are stainless steel.

Q
What would you recommend for killing a weed called "creeping charlie"?
A
When treating for creeping charlie it is best to usually spot treat the growth with a glyphosate or round up type product.  This is the best option.  This would be if it is growing in ornamental areas or places where you can treat it individually.  If that is not an option and it is growing into your grass, you can use Speedzone herbicide which is labeled for selectively killing weeds in turf grass.

Q
What weed killer can I spray around fences and fence posts to keep the grass around there from growing back?
A
If you are just looking to kill existing grass in a small area, you should treat with a professional glyphosate product like our Ranger Pro product.  This kills grass for longer than typical round up, but eventually it will grow back.  If you really do not want anything to grow back, you can use a soil sterilant.  These products need to be used according to the label though, they are very powerful and can move through the soil, so if there is anything around the posts you would want to not kill, you should not use a soil sterilant.

Q
Does Ranger Pro kill annual bluegrass?

Q
How long after spraying glyphosate is it safe to plant?
A
Glyphosate products like Ranger Pro, Round Up, etc do not stay active in the soil very long at all.  You can replant after as little as two weeks after applying a glyphosate product.
