Mixing Instructions
- Use a 50 mesh (or coarser) filter screen and fill tank 3/4 full with correct amount of water. Start and continue agitation throughout mixing and spraying.
- Add the required amount of Solo herbicide water-soluble bags directly into the sprayer through the tank opening and allow to dissolve completely.
- For Solo plus Lontrel® herbicide tank-mix, add recommended amount of Lontrel.
- Agitate for at least 10 minutes to dissolve the herbicide. After the herbicide is dissolved, continue agitation.
- If required, add the correct amount of Merge adjuvant. If excess foaming occurs, a silicone anti-foaming agent may be added (e.g. Halt®).
- Complete filling the tank to the desired level with water. If agitation is stopped for more than 5 minutes, re-suspend spray solution by full agitation prior to commencing spraying again.
- Between loads of tank-mix, check in-line and nozzle screens and rinse clean if needed.
