INSTRUCTIONS
Mixing Instructions
Option(R) Corn Herbicide must be applied with clean and properly calibrated equipment. Prior to adding Option(R) Corn Herbicide, ensure that the spray tank, filters and nozzles have been thoroughly cleaned.
1. Fill spray tank with 25% of the required volume of water, and begin agitation prior to the addition of Option(R) Corn Herbicide.
2. Continue agitation to ensure full dispersion of Option(R) Corn Herbicide.
3. If Option(R) Corn Herbicide is applied in a tank mixture with other pesticides, add Option(R) Corn Herbicide to the spray tank first and ensure it is thoroughly dispersed before adding other pesticides. If Option(R) Corn Herbicide is added to a partial tank of spray solution, pre-slurry Option(R) Corn Herbicide in clean water prior to adding to the tank.
4. Continue to fill the spray tank with water to the desired volume and agitate while adding the required spray adjuvants and nitrogen fertilizers. If ammonium sulfate (AMS) is the nitrogen fertilizer source, it is preferred that the AMS go into the tank before the Option(R) Corn Herbicide.
5. Continue agitation during application to ensure a uniform spray mixture.
RE-SUSPENDING WG PRODUCTS IN SPRAY SOLUTION
Like other Water Dispersible Granules or suspension concentrates (SC?s), Option(R) Corn Herbicide will settle if left standing without agitation. If the spray solution is allowed to settle for one hour or more, re-agitate the spray solution for a minimum of 10 minutes before application.
COMPATIBILITY
If Option(R) Corn Herbicide is to be tank mixed with other herbicides, compatibility should be tested prior to mixing. To test for compatibility, use a small container and mix a small amount (0.5 to 1qt) of spray, combining all ingredients in the same ratio as the anticipated use. If any indications of physical incompatibility develop, do not use this mixture for spraying. Indications of incompatibility usually occur within 5-15 minutes after mixing. Read and follow the label of each tank mix product used for precautionary statements, directions for use, geographic and other restrictions.
REENTRY PPE
PPE required for early entry to treated areas that is permitted under the Worker Protection Standard and that involves contact with anything that has been treated such as plants, soil or water, is coveralls over long-sleeved shirt and long pants, socks and shoes and chemical-resistant gloves made of any waterproof material such as polyethylene or polyvinyl chloride.
