LABLL <br />Foliar Treatment With Ground Equipment <br />High Volume Foliar Treatment <br />•For cootrot ofwoodyplants, use Garlon4 at the rate oft to3 quarts per 100 gallons <br />of Spmy mixture, or Garton 4 at 1 to 3 quarts maybe tank mixed with labeled aces <br />of 2,4-D low volatile ester herbicide, Tordon 101 Mixture herbicide, or Tordon <br />K herbicide and diluted to make 100 gallons of spray. Apply at a volume of 100 <br />m 400 gallons of total spay per acre depending on size and density of wootly <br />plants. Coverage should be thorough to wet all leaves, stems, and root collars. <br />See Table 1 for relationship between spmy volume and maximum application <br />rate. When tank mixing, follow applicable use directions and precautions on each <br />manufacturer's label. <br />Low Volume Foliar Treatment <br />To control susceptible woody plants, mix up [0 20 quarts of Garton 4 in ] 0 to ] OD <br />gallons of finished spray. The spray concentration of Garton 4 and [oral spray <br />volume per acre should be adjusted according to [he size and density of target <br />woody plants and kind of spmy equipment used. With low volume sprays, use <br />sufficient spray volume N obtain uniform coverage of target plants including the <br />surfaces of all foliage, stems, and root collars (See General Use Precautions). For <br />best results, a surfactant should be added to all spray mixtures. Match equipment <br />and delivery ate of spmy nozzles m height and density of woody plants. When <br />treating fall, dense bmsh, a stuck mounted spray gun with spmy tips that deliver <br />up [0 2 gallons per minute at 40 N 60 psi may be required. Backpack or other <br />types ofspe<ialized spray equipment with spmy lips [hat deliver less than 1 gallon <br />of spmy per minute maybe appropriate for short, low m modeate density bmsh. <br />See Table 1 for relationship between mixing ate, spay volume and maximum <br />application ate. <br />Tank Mixing: As a low volume foliar spay, up to 12 quarts of Garton 4 may be <br />applied in tank mix combination with labeled ates of Tordon K or Tordon 101 <br />MixNre in 10 to I00 gallons of finished spay. <br />Broadcast Applications With Ground Equipment <br />Make application using equipment that will assure thorough and uniform <br />coverage of spray volumes applied. <br />Woody Plant Control <br />Foliage Treatment: Use 4 to 8 quarts of Garton 4 in enough water [o make 5 <br />or more gallons per acre of Ntal spay, or Garton 4 at 1 r/r N 3 quarts may be <br />combined with labeled ales of 2,4-D low volatile ester, Tordon 101 MixNre, or <br />Tordon K in sufficient water to make 5 or more gallons per acre of [oral spray. <br />Broadleaf Weed Control <br />Use Garton 4 at ales of 1 N 4 quarts in a total volume of 5 or more gallons per <br />~cre as a water spmy mixtme. Apply at any time weeds are actively growing. <br />orlon 4 at 0.25 to 3 quarts may be tank mixed with labeled rates of 2,4-D amine <br />or low volatile ester, Tordon K, or Tordon 101 MixNre to improve [he spectmm <br />of activity. For thickened (high viscosity) spray mixtures, Garton 4 can be mixed <br />with diesel oil or other inverting agent. When using an inverting agent, read and <br />follow the use directions and precautions on the product label. <br />Aerial Application (Helicopter Only) <br />Aerial spays should be applied using suitable drift connol (See ^Geneml Use <br />Precautions"). <br />Foliage Treatment NBliy and Pipeline Rightsof-Way) <br />Use 4 to B quarts of Garton 4 alone, or 3 to 4 quarts Garton 4 in a tank mix <br />combination with labeled ales of 2,4-b low volatile ester Tordon 101 MixNre <br />or Tordon K and apply in a NtaI spay volume of 10 to 30 gallons per acre. Use <br />the higher rates and volumes when plants are dense or under drought conditions. <br />Basal Bark and Dormant Brush Treatments <br />To control susceptible woody plants in rights-of-way, and other non-crap areas, <br />and in forests, use Garton 4 in ail or oil-water mixNres prepared and applied <br />as described below. When preparing mixtures, use as oils either a commercially <br />available bass] oil, diesel fuel, No. 1 or No. 2 fuel oil, or kerosene. Substitute <br />other oils or diluents only as recommended by the oil or diluent's manufacNrer. <br />When mixing with a basal oil or other oils or diluents, read and follow the use <br />directions and precautions on the product label prepared by [he oil or diluent's <br />mannfaCNrel. <br />Oil Mixture Sprays <br />Add Garton 4 [o the required amount of oil in the spray tank or mixing tank and <br />mix thoroughly. If the mixmre stands over 4 hours, reagitalion is required. <br />Oil Mixtures ofGarlon 4 and Tordon K: Tordon K and Garton 4 may be used in <br />rank mix combination for basal bark treatment of woody plants. These herbicides <br />are incompatible and will not fora[ a stable mixmre when mixed together directly <br />in oil. Stable Nnk mixtures for basal bark application can be made if each product <br />is first combined with a compatibility agent prior to final mixing in the desired <br />a[io. ($ee product bulletin for mixing instmctions.) <br />Oil-Water Mixture Sprays <br />First, premix the Garton 4, oil and surfactant in a sepaate container. Do not allow <br />any water or mixtures containing water to get into the Garton 4 or the premix. <br />Fill the spray rank about half full with water, then slowly add the premix with <br />continuous agitation and complete filling the tank with water. Continue modea[e <br />gitation. <br />Note: If me premix is put m the tank without any water, the first water added <br />may form a thick "invert" (water in oil) emulsion which will be hard [o break. <br />Basal Bark Treatment <br />To control susceptible woody plants with stems less than 6 inches in basal diameter, <br />mix 1 to 5 gallons of Garton 4 in enough oil to make 100 gallons of spmy mixmre. <br />Database and format copyright G by C&P Press.

Spmy the basal pans of bmsh and tree trunks to a height of 12 N l5 <br />inches from the ground. Thorough wetting of the indicated area is necessary for <br />good control Spmy until mnoff at the ground line is noticeable. OId or rougfi <br />bark requires more Spmy than smooth young bark. Apply at any time, including <br />the winter months, except when snow or water prevent splaying to the ground <br />line. <br />Low Volume Basal Bark Treatment <br />7o control susceptible woody plants with stems less than 6 inches in basal diameter, <br />mix 20 to 30 gallons of Garton 4 in enough oil to make 100 gallons of spray <br />mixmre. Apply with a backpack or knapsack sprayer using low pressure and a <br />solid cone or flat fan noule. Spray the basal parts of brush and tree [ranks in <br />a manner which thoroughly wets the lower stems, including the root collar area, <br />but no[ N the point of mnoff Herbicide concentration should vary with size and <br />susceptibility of species treated. Apply at any time, including the winter months, <br />except when snow or water prevent spmying to the ground line or when stem <br />surfaCCS are SaNmted Wlth Watel. <br />Garton 4 Plus Tordon K in Oil Tank Mix: Gallon 4 and Tordon K may be <br />applied as a low volume basal bark treatment [o improve control of certain woody <br />species such as ash, elm, maple, poplar, aspen, haekbeny, oak, oceanspay, birch, <br />hickory, pine, tanoak, cherry, locust, sassafras, and multifloa rose. (See product <br />bulletin for mixing instructions.) <br />Streamline Basal Bark Treatment (Southern States) <br />To control or suppress susceptible woody plants for conifer release, mix ZO Co <br />30 gallons of Garton 4 in enough oil N make 100 gallons of spay mixmre. <br />Apply with a backpack or knapsack spayer using equipment which provides a <br />directed straight stream spay. Apply sufficient spmy N one side of stems less <br />than 3 inches in basal diameter to form a vested zone that is 6 inches in height. <br />When the optimum amount of spay mixmre is applied, the treated zone should <br />widen to encircle [he stem within approximately 30 minutes, Treat both sides of <br />stems which are 3 to 4 inches in basal diameter. Direct the spmy at bark [hat <br />is approximately 12 to 24 inches above ground. Pines (loblolly, slash, shortleaf, <br />and Virginia) up m 2 inches in diameter breast height (dbh) can be controlled <br />by directing [he spay at a point approximatety 4 fee[ above ground. Vary spmy <br />mixmre concentration with size and susceptibility of the species being [reared. <br />Best results are achieved when applications are made m young vigorously growing <br />stems which have not developed the thicker bark chaacteristic of slower growing, <br />understory pees in older stands. This technique is not recommended for semb <br />and live oak species, including blackjack, turkey, post, live, bluejack and laurel <br />oaks, or biglea( maple. Apply from approzima[eIy 6 weeks prior to hardwood <br />leaf expansion in the spring until approximately 2 months after leaf expansion <br />is completed. Do not apply when snow or water prevent spaying at the desired <br />height above ground level. <br />Low Volume Stem Bark Band Treatrent (North Central and Lake States) <br />To control susceptible woody plants with stems less than 6 inches in basal diameter, <br />mix 20 to 30 gallons of Garton 4 in enough oil to make 100 gallons of spay <br />mixmre. Apply with a backpack or knapsack spayer using low pressure and a <br />solid cone or flat fan nozzle. Apply the spay in a 6 to ]0 inch wide band that <br />completely encircles the stem. Spmy in a manner that completely wets [he bark, <br />but not to the point of mnoff The treatment band may be positioned at any height <br />up to the first major booth. For best results apply the band as low as possible. <br />Spay mixmre concennation should vary with size and susceptibility of species N <br />be treated. Applications may be made at any time, including winter months. <br />Thinline Basal Bark Treatment <br />To connol susceptible woody plants with stems less than 0 inches in diameter, <br />apply Garton 4 either undiluted or mixed at 50-75%v/v with oil in a thin stream to <br />all sides of the lower stems. The stream should be directed horizontally to apply <br />a narrow band around each stem or clump. Use a minimum of 2 N 15 milliliters <br />of Garton 4 or oil mixmre with Garton 4 to treat single stems and from 25 to <br />100 milliliters to veal clumps of stems. Use an applicamr metered or caiibared <br />m deliver the small amounts required. <br />Dormant Stem Treatment <br />Dormant stem treatments will control susceptible woody plants and vines with <br />stems less than 2 inches in diameter. Plants with stems greater than 2 inches in <br />diameter may not be controlled and resprou[ing may occur This treatment method <br />is best suited for sites with dense, small diameter bmsh. Dormant stem treatments <br />of Garton 4 can also be used as a chemical sidetrim for controlling latest branches <br />of larger trees Iha[ encroach onto roadside, utility, or other rights-of--way. <br />Mix 4 to 8 quarts of Garton 4 in 2 to 3 gallons of crop oil concentrate or other <br />recommended oil and add this mixmre to enough water to make 100 gallons of <br />spay solution. Use continuous adequate agitation. Apply with Radiate, OC or <br />equivalent nozzles, or handgun using 70 m 100 gallons of spay per acre to ensure <br />uniform coverage of stems. Garton 4 may be mixed with 4 quarts of Weedone <br />170 herbicide to improve the connol of black cherry and broaden the spectmm <br />of herbicidal activity. In western states, apply anytime after woody plants are <br />dormant. In other areas apply anytime within 10 weeks of budbreak, geneally <br />February through April. Do not apply m wet or satiated bark as poor connol <br />may result. <br />Cut Stump Treatment <br />To control resprouting ofmr[ stumps of susceptible species, mix 20 m 30 gallons <br />of Garton 4 in enough ail [o make 100 gallons of spray mixure. Apply with a <br />backpack or knapsack spayer using low pressures and a solid cone or flat fan <br />nozzle. Spay the root co0ar area, sides of the stump, and the outer portion of <br />[he cut surface including the cambium until thoroughly wet, but not to the point <br />of mnoff.
