GENERAL INFORMATION
V-53482 O.17G Herbicide is a selective preemergence herbicide that provides extended residual control of a wide variety of annual broadleaf and grassy weeds. In addition, V-53482 O.17G also provides limited postemergence control of certain newly emerged broadleaf weeds. V-53482 O.17G is labeled for use in containerized ornamental shrubs and trees, ground covers and non-bearing fruit and nut trees that are grown in nurseries. V-53482 O.17G can also be applied to field grown ornamental shrubs and trees, nonbearing vineyards and non-cropland areas. V-53482 O.17G should not be applied in residential or commerciallandscapas. Apply V-53482 O.17G before germination of target weeds or immediately after cultivation.
V-53482 O.17G 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. V-53482 O.17G is tightly bound to soil and does not inhibit or limit root growth under normal growing conditions. Plant injury associated with volatilization of V -53482 O.17G from soH has not been observed.
V-53482 O.17G granules may cause leaf spotting or speckling on ornamental shrubs if granules remain in contact with leaf surfaces, especially if foliage is wet at time of application. However, V-53482 O.17G is not translocated within plant tissue and subsequent plant growth will therefore not be affected by any leaf spotting.
General Restrictions and Limitations
• Do not apply to moist or wet foliage.
• Do not apply when winds are gusty or above 8 mph.
• Use caution when applying to plants that are producing a new flush of growth because herbicide may injure tender, newly formed leaves if granules remain in contact with leaf surfaces.
• Do not apply to plants whose leaves channel the herbicide granules to the leaf base (e.g., Daylily or Hosta). Do not apply to bedding plants or areas where bedding plants will be planted or transplanted within one year following application.
• Do not apply to newly transplanted ornamentals until packing and irrigation or rainfall has settled soil or potting media.
• Non-bearing fruit trees such as citrus, apples, pears, peaches, etc. are defined as plants that will not bear fruit for at least one year after application.
• Do not incorporete product into soil or potting media.
• Do not apply to flowers, vegetables, turf or to ornamentals growing in residential or commercial landscapes.
