GENERAL INFORMATION

Blitz Herbicide is a selective postemergence herbicide for the control of hard-to-kill annual broadleaf weeds such as chickweed, wild buckwheat and cleavers in spring wheat (including durum), winter wheat, spring barley, and oats (tank mixes only) not underseeded with legumes. Blitz Herbicide is mixed with water and applied as a uniform broadcast spray. It is non-corrosive, nonflammable, and nonvolatile.
Blitz Herbicide must be applied early postemergence, to the main flush of actively growing broadleaf weeds. Warm, moist growing conditions promote active weed growth and enhance the activity of Blitz
Herbicide by allowing maximum foliar uptake and contact activity. Weeds hardened off by cold weather or drought stress may not be adequately controlled or suppressed and re-growth may occur. For best results, ensure thorough spray coverage of target weeds. See “DIRECTIONS FOR USE” section of this label for complete use details.
Blitz Herbicide stops growth of susceptible weeds rapidly. However, typical symptoms (discolouration) of dying weeds may not be noticeable for 1 to 2 weeks after application, depending upon growing conditions and weed susceptibility. Degree of control and duration of effect are dependent on weed sensitivity, weed size, crop competition, growing conditions at and following treatment, and spray coverage.

MODE OF ACTION
Blitz Herbicide inhibits the production of the ALS enzyme in plants. This enzyme is essential for the production of certain amino acids which are essential for plant growth. Blitz Herbicide is a Group 2 mode of action herbicide.

GENERAL USE PRECAUTIONS

Non-Target Sites
Do not apply where proximity of susceptible crops (e.g. canola and legumes) or other desirable plants is likely to result in exposure to spray or spray drift. See Environmental Precautions section of the label.
This product has potential to leach. Do not apply excessive irrigation.
