Mixing Order

  1. Use a 50 mesh filter screen and fill clean spray tank 1/2 full of water. Start agitation system.1
  2. Add the correct amount of Zidua SC herbicide and continue agitation.
  3. Add the correct amount of Heat LQ herbicide and continue agitation.
  4. Add the correct amount of glyphosate and continue agitation.
  5. Add the correct amount of Merge adjuvant. If excess foaming occurs, an anti-foaming agent may be added.
  6. Continue agitation while adding the remaining amount of water.
  7. Continue to agitate or run the by-pass system.
  8. After any break in spraying, agitate thoroughly before spraying again.

Note: Always follow the WAMLEGS mixing procedure when tank mixing.

1Do not over-agitate at any point in the process.

Application Tips

  • Do not apply during periods of dead calm or gusty winds.
  • Do not use on peat or muck soils with 7% or more organic matter content.

FAQ

How much rainfall is required for activation of Heat Complete herbicide?

Heat Complete requires about half an inch of rainfall for full activation. If the rainfall doesn't occur immediately, Heat Complete can remain on the soil surface for several weeks and will activate with a later rain, providing residual suppression later in the season.

When should I use Heat Complete vs. Heat LQ and at what rates?

For strictly burndown control, Heat LQ is effective at the 80-acre rate. For additional residual on volunteer canola, wild buckwheat, cleavers and stinkweed, Heat LQ provides excellent residual suppression at the 30-acre rate. Heat Complete provides residual suppression of all of those weeds with the addition of kochia, pigweed, lamb's quarter, wild oat, and green and yellow foxtail.
