General Information

G-Max Lite herbicide is a selective preemergence herbicide for controlling most annual grasses, many annual broadleaf weeds and sedges in field corn, popcorn, seed corn, sweet corn, and grain sorghum (refer to Table 1. Weeds Controlled). Weeds Controlled Some weed species have triazine-resistant biotypes that will not be controlled adequately by this product. If resistant biotypes are suspected, use an alternate program or use nontriazine products such as Clarity herbicide or Prowl herbicide in combination with G-Max Lite, or use Distinct herbicide or Status herbicide sequentially.

Application Instructions
Apply G-Max Lite preplant surface, preplant incorporated, preemergence, or early postemergence to corn or sorghum. G-Max Lite will provide most effective weed
control when applied (by ground or aerial equipment) and subsequently incorporated into soil by rainfall, sprinkler irrigation, or mechanical tillage prior to weed seedling emergence from soil. Apply G-Max Lite with either water or fluid fertilizer as the spray carrier, or impregnated onto and applied with dry bulk fertilizer. Sprayable fluid fertilizer as a carrier is not recommended for use after crop emergenceunless the typical fertilizer burn symptoms on the crop are acceptable. Refer to Additives section for more information.

Application Rate
Use rates for G-Max Lite when used C)lone, in tank mix, or in sequential applications are given in Table 2 (refer to General Tank Mixing Information and Crop-specific Information sections for more details). Use rates of this '\ product vary by soil texture and organic matter. Soil texture groupings used in this label are coarse (sand, loamy sand, sandy loam), medium (silt, silt loam, loam, sandy clay loam), and fine (sandy clay, silty clay, silty clay loam, clay loam, and clay).
When use rates are expressed in ranges, use the lower rates for more coarsely textured ,soils lower in organic matter; use the higher rates for more finely textured soils that are higher in organic matter. Reduced rates may be used where partial control or reduced length of soil residua! control is required (refer to Table 2).

Application Timing
Preplant Surface Applications. For use in minimum tillage or noetillage production systems, apply G-Max Lite alone or in tank mixes up to 45 days befo're planting.
When making early preplant applications (15 to 45 days prior to planting), use 3.5 pints of G-Max Lite on all soil types. Early preplant applications are not recommended  for use on coarse-textured soils or in areas where average annual rainfall (or rainfall + irrigation) typically exceeds 40 inches. Early preplant applications may be applied as part of a split application program where the second application is made after planting (use 2/3 of G-Max Lite rate early followed by 1/3 of rate after planting). Use a split application when the initial application is made more than 30 days prior to planting. Tank mixes with postemergence herbicides such as Clarity" herbicide, glyphosate, Gramoxone Inteon herbicide, or TouchdownGll herbicide must be used when weeds are more than 1.5 inches tall at the time of application.
