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 />

emergent control<br />

Allelochemical<br />

Post-emergence<br />

Contact action<br />

Repeated applications<br />

need for long term control<br />

of perennial weeds<br />

Paths, driveways,<br />

around sheds, spot<br />

spraying in lawns<br />

Maize<br />

Non-selective<br />

suppresses established weeds<br />

Selective<br />

certain broadleaf weeds<br />

Gardens, paths, Non-selective<br />

spot spray in lawns annual broadleaf weeds,<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 />
