SOME USES<br />
For use in water to control submerged & floating weeds <strong>and</strong> algae in irrigation<br />
systems. Only to be supplied to <strong>and</strong> used by a an authorized person<br />
Pre-emergence Non-crop, lines in Non-selective<br />
Post-emergence playing fields, use general weeds<br />
Contact action, as a directed spray<br />
persists in soil<br />
Inorganic metals do not contain carbon, generally derived from mineral ores. When<br />
used as herbicides they directly poison plants, ie kill parts of plants with which they<br />
come in contact<br />
Bluestone (copper sulphate) controls algae in paths <strong>and</strong> ponds, copper deficiency<br />
Sulphate of iron (ferrous sulphate) contact effect, mosses in lawns<br />
Mix immediately <strong>and</strong> sprinkle directly onto weeds, not Selective<br />
the whole lawn. Apply in the evening so any dew can certain broadleaved<br />
activate the process or lightly sprinkle. To control all weeds in turf<br />
weeds every 2 nd week. Wear gloves (check<br />
Gardening Australia for details). Doesn’t store.<br />
Post-emergence<br />
Contact action<br />
Rapidly desiccates weeds<br />
Pre <strong>and</strong> Post<br />

with care<br />
algae, lichens, liverworts,<br />
moss<br />
Ammoniated soap of fatty acid, vinegar, lemon juices, pelargonic acid, etc. are nonselective, they suppress<br />
annuals weeds <strong>and</strong> kill the tops of perennial weeds which regenerate after a one application.<br />
