Weed
Leaf Stage
Chickweed, common 4 to 6
Lamb’s-quarters 4 to 8
Mustard, wild 5 to 7
Mustard, wormseed 5 to 9

Rates:
Option 2.25 OD: 0.63 L per acre (10 acres per jug) plus 28% UAN (liquid 28-0-0) at 1.0 L per acre.
Option 35 DF: 40.5 g per acre (20 acres per case) plus 28% UAN (liquid 28-0-0) at 1.0 L per acre plus Hasten Adjuvant at
0.71 L per acre.
NOTE: Option 35 DF and Option 2.25 OD must be tank mixed with Banvel II at 121 mL per acre.
Add Option 35 DF or Option 2.25 OD to a half full tank, followed by Banvel II, then 28% UAN then Hasten adjuvant (for use
with Option 35 DF only).
Weed Control
Application Information:
• Water Volume:
º Option 35 DF: 89 L per acre.
º Option 2.25 OD: 60 L per acre
• Nozzles and Pressure: Use 25 to 40 psi (175 to 275 kPa) when using conventional 80° or 110° flat fan nozzles. Low drift
nozzles may require higher pressures for proper performance. Use a combination of nozzles and pressure designed to
deliver thorough, even coverage of ASABE medium or larger droplets.
• Screens: Use 50 mesh or coarser on both nozzle and primary plumbing screens.
How it Works:
Refer to Table 9 on page 48.
Effects of Growing Conditions:
Under optimum conditions weed growth ceases within 1 to 3 days and yellowing of the growing point occurs in 5 to 10
days. Warm moist conditions provide for the best activity. Activity may be reduced or delayed if applied under cool and/or
dry conditions or in the presence of heavy dew, fog, mist or rain or if weeds are dust covered. If the crop or weeds are under
stress due to environmental conditions, delay application until the both crop and weeds have resumed active growth.
Tank Mixes:
Herbicides: Banvel II (121 mL per acre)*
Insecticides: Avoid application to corn that has been treated with organophosphorous insecticides.
Fungicides: None registered.
Fertilizers: DO NOT use any fertilizers or additives other than 28% UAN (1 L per acre), recommended*.
* Option 35 DF must be applied to corn in Manitoba as a tank-mixture with Banvel II, 28% UAN and Hasten adjuvant.
Option 2.25OD must be applied to corn in Manitoba as a tank-mixture with Banvel II and 28% UAN. See ‘Rates’ section
above.
Adding ingredients in the correct order is critical for optimum performance. Check labels of both products to be mixed for
directions. General guidelines can be found on page 8.
