ACTIVE INGREDIENT
Florasulam 50 g / L, Group 2
CROPS
Barley, oats, wheat, durum or summer fallow

Controlled: Buckwheat, wild, volunteer canola 1, common chickweed, cleavers, cow cockle, wild mustard, shepherd’ s-purse, smartweed and stinkweed
1
Including herbicide-tolerant canola varieties except Clearfield *.
Suppressed: Hemp-nettle, narrow-leaved hawksbeard, redroot pigweed and sow thistle( annual and perennial)
APPLICATION TIMING
• In spring, tank mix with glyphosate and apply prior to seeding.
• In summer, tank mix with glyphosate and apply to summer fallow fields and seeded the following spring.
• In fall, tank mix with glyphosate and apply to stubble or summer fallow fields after August 1st and prior to freeze-up.
TANK MIXES
Glyphosate
APPLICATION RATES
Apply at 40 ml / ac( 100 ml / ha) and glyphosate at 182.2 g a. e./ ac( 450 g a. e./ ha) with 10 U. S. gallons of water per acre( 100 L / ha).
USE RESTRICTIONS
Spring: BLITZ herbicide + glyphosate may be applied in the spring prior to seeding and no longer than 48 hours after seeding prior to any crop emergence. Fields treated with BLITZ herbicide in the spring may be planted to barley, oats, wheat, durum or summer fallowed.
Summer( prior to August 1): BLITZ herbicide + glyphosate may be applied to summer fallow fields and seeded in the following Spring to barley, canola, oats, peas or wheat( including durum) or summer followed.
Summer( after August 1): BLITZ herbicide + glyphosate may be applied to summer follow fields and seeded in the following Spring to barley, oats or wheat( including durum) or summer fallowed.
Fall: BLITZ herbicide + glyphosate may be applied to stubble or summer fallow fields after August 1 and prior to freeze-up and may be seeded to barley, oats or wheat( including durum) or summer fallowed.
Do not use in successive years on the same field.
MIXING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Fill sprayer tank 1 / 2 full of water. 2. Start sprayer tank agitation. 3. Add the required amount of BLITZ herbicide. 4. Add tank mix partner and continue to agitate.
5. Fill the sprayer tank with sufficient water to spray 50 – 100 L of spray mixture per hectare.
6. Avoid application conditions that can create drift when applying next to sensitive crops( e. g. canola and legumes).
7. Follow sprayer clean-up directions using a recommended tank cleaner.
LIMITATIONS
In rare occasions when the mixing instructions are not followed precisely when using a K-Salt product flocculation may occur in the tank. This can easily be corrected; if one of the following products is added to the tank( after flocculating occurs) to rectify the situation:
• CHOICE WEATHER MASTER
• EZ Mix
• AMS

Always read and follow the label directions.
