SECTION 2: THE PRODUCT
CONVERGE FLEXX Herbicide is a selective herbicide for season long control of important broadleaf and grass weeds infesting field corn grown in Eastern Canada and British Columbia and seed corn grown in Eastern Canada. CONVERGE FLEXX Herbicide can be applied from preplant up to the 3-leaf stage of corn and preplant or preemergence in seed corn.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE
SECTION 8: CROPS AND WEEDS
8.1 CROPS AND APPLICATION TIMING
CONVERGE FLEXX Herbicide is a selective herbicide for season long control of important broadleaf and grass weeds infesting field corn. When activated by rainfall, CONVERGE FLEXX Herbicide will control susceptible weed seedlings that are up to 5cm in height. Shallow tillage may be necessary to control weeds beyond this stage. Do not incorporate CONVERGE FLEXX Herbicide.
CONVERGE FLEXX Herbicide may be applied in conventional, minimum tillage, or zero tillage crop management systems. In field corn, apply up to 14 days prior to planting, or after planting but before the crop reaches the 3-leaf stage. In seed corn, apply up to 14 days prior to planting or after planting but prior to crop emergence.

SECTION 9: APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS AND USE LIMITATIONS
9.1 GENERAL REMINDERS FOR SUCCESSFUL OPERATION
- Under certain conditions, temporary yellowing of some corn leaves may occur when the plant is in the seedling stage. These conditions include cold weather, excessive moisture and/or compacted soils. The symptoms are most visible where excessive rates have been applied, such as sprayer overlaps. The crop typically recovers quickly.
- Plant corn at least 4 cm deep. Failure to close the seed furrow may allow herbicide spray to directly contact the seed which can cause injury.
- The use of this chemical may result in contamination of groundwater particularly in areas where soils are permeable (e.g. sandy soil) and/or the depth to the water table is shallow.
- DO NOT apply CONVERGE FLEXX Herbicide to field corn grown on loamy sands or sands and/or soils with less than 2 % O.M.
- DO NOT use on sweet corn.
- Follow directions under Section 8 for the correct rate and timing of application.

9.2 GROUND APPLICATION
- Apply CONVERGE FLEXX Herbicide alone or in tank-mixtures, by ground equipment only. DO NOT APPLY BY AIR.
- Apply CONVERGE FLEXX Herbicide as a broadcast spray in a minimum of 150 litres of water per hectare at a spray pressure of 138-275 kPa. Nitrogen solution (28-0-0) may replace all or part of the water as a carrier for surface pre-plant and pre-emergence applications.
- For best results use flat fan nozzles or comparable nozzles to achieve uniform spray distribution. DO NOT apply with hollow cone nozzles or with other application equipment which does not provide uniform coverage.
- DO NOT apply during periods of dead calm. Avoid application of this product when winds are gusty. DO NOT apply with spray droplets smaller than the American Society of Agricultural Engineers (ASAE) medium classification. Boom height must be 60 cm or less above the crop or ground.
