PRODUCT INFORMATION
This product is a preemergence and early postemergence herbicide for control of selected grass and broadleaf weeds in and around ornamental woody shrubs, deciduous trees and conifers (including Christmas trees) grown outdoors in containers or in the field (in ground), to maintain bare ground non-crop areas, conifer and poplar re-forestation and dormant warm season turfgrass. This product controls weeds by inhibiting protoporphyrinogen oxidase, an essential enzyme required by plants for chlorophyll biosynthesis. Seedling weeds are controlled preemergence when exposed to sunlight following contact with the soil applied herbicide. This product may cause spotting or speckling on foliage if the spray solution directly contacts actively growing plant foliage or green bark. Leaves that receive indirect (drift) spray contact may be affected in a similar manner. Translocation of this product is limited, and under mostconditions established and vigorously growing woody ornamentals will rapidly outgrow any injury symptoms. However, direct application to actively growing foliage can cause severe injury or death with sensitive ornamental plant species, especially in herbaceous bedding plants and flowers.
IMPORTANT: When applied as directed, plants listed on this label have shown tolerance to this product. However, this product is a very activeherbicide and the user should exercise responsible judgment and caution until familiarity is gained with this product. Due to variability within species, crop growth stage, environmental conditions and application techniques, it is recommended that users test this product under local growing conditions on a small number of plants and evaluate for 4 to 6 weeks for phytotoxicity. Testing this product on a small number of plants will determine if the herbicide can be used safely on a widespread application. Neither the seller nor the manufacturer of this product has investigated the safety to plants not listed on the label.

USE PRECAUTIONS
• Do not apply in enclosed greenhouse structures if plants are present.
• Do not move plants for 24 hours into enclosed greenhouses until the area treated with this product has been watered.
• Do not apply when weather conditions favor spray drift from treated areas.
• Do not graze treated fields or hay to livestock.
• Do not incorporate into soil after application.
• Do not apply this product through any type of irrigation system.
• Do not apply when plants are under stress from insects, diseases, animals or winter injury, planting shock or any other stresses.
• Only apply to healthy established trees and ornamentals.
• Do not apply more than 12 02 of this product per acre per application.
• Do not apply more than 24 oz of this product per acre per year.

RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT
Any weed population may contain or develop plants naturally resistant to herbicides in various modes of action. Resistant biotypes may eventually dominate the weed population if herbicides with the same mode of action are used repeatedly in the same field or insuccessive years. These resistant biotypes may not be adequately controlled by herbicides in a mode of action class for which resistance has developed. A gradual or total loss of weed control may occur over time. Other resistance mechanisms that are not linked to site of action, such as enhanced metabolism, may also exist. Appropriate resistance management strategies should be followed.
