GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
MIXING
Conquest Buckwheat Cereal Herbicide can be mixed with water only. Mix only sufficient chemical for each days use and avoid storing mix. Half fill the spray tank with water and add the required quantity of Conquest Buckwheat Cereal Herbicide and complete filling. Agitate continuously to ensure thorough mixing before and during application.
Tank Mixture: Wettable powder or dry flowable formulation (eg. Water dispersible granules) should be added to the spray tank first, followed by suspension concentrates (flowables), water soluble salts and then emulsifiable concentrate formulations (eg. Starane®200). Add spraying oils and surfactants (wetters) last, if required.
