<br />2,4-D low volatile ester herbicide, Tordon 101 Mixure hePoicido, or Tordon
<br />K herbicide and diluted to make 100 gallons of spray. Apply at a volume of 100
<br />m 400 gallons of Ntal spiny per acct depending on size and drnsity of woody
<br />plants. Coverage should be thorough to wet all leaves, stems, and root collars.
<br />See Table I for relanonship between spiny volume and maximum application
<br />rate. Wben tank mixing, follow applicable use directions and,precautions on each
<br />mannfacNrer's label.
<br />Low Volume Foliar Treatment
<br />To control susceptible woody plants, mix up [0 20 quarts of Garlon 4 in 10 to 100
<br />gallons of finished spiny. The spray concentration of Garlon 4 and total spray
<br />volume per acre should be adjusted according N the size and density of tagget
<br />woody plants and kind of spray equipment used. With low volume sprays, use
<br />sufficient spray volume N obtain unrfarm coverage of target plants including the
<br />surfaces of all foliage, stems, and root collars (Sec General Use Precautions). For
<br />best results, a surfactant should be added to all spray mixures. Match equipment
<br />and delivery rate of spiny nozzles to height and density of woody plants. When
<br />treating tall, dense brash, a wck mounted spiny gun wrth spray trps that deliver
<br />up to 2 gallons per minute at 40 ro 60 psi may be required Backpack or other
<br />types of specialized spray equipment with spray tips that deliver less than 1 gallon
<br />of spiny per minute may be appropriate for short, law N moderate density brush.
<br />See Table 1 for relationship between mixing rate, spray volume and maximum
<br />application rate.
<br />Tank Miaing: As a low volume foliar spiny, up N 12 quarts of Garlon 4 may be
<br />applied in rank mu combination with labeled rates of Tordon K or Tordon ]Ol
<br />Mixture in ]0 N 100 gallons of finished spiny.
<br />Broadcast Applications With Ground Equipment
<br />Make application using equipment that wdB auure thorough end uniform
<br />coverage of spray volumes applied.

<br />or more gallons ptt acre of total spray, or Garton 4 at I t¢ N 3 quarts may be
<br />combined with labeled rates of 2,4-D low volatile ester, Tordon ]Ol Mixture, or
<br />Tordon K in sufficient water [o make 5 or more gallons per acre of [oral spray.
<br />Broadleaf Weed Control
<br />se Garlon 4 at mtca of 1 N 4 quarts in a Ntal volume of 5 or more gallons ptt
<br />e as a water spiny mizNre. Apply at any time weeds are actively growing.
<br />ton 4 at 0.25 to 3 quarts may be tank mired with labeled rates of 2,4-D amine
<br />low volatile ester, Tordon K, or Tordon 101 MIxNrc to improve the spectrum
<br />of activity. For thickened (high viscosity) spray mixtures, Garlon 4 can be mixed
<br />with diesel oil or other inverting agent Whcn using an inverting agent, read and
<br />follow the use directions and precautions on the product label.
<br />Aerial Application (Helicopter Only)
<br />Aerial sprays should be applied using suitable drift control (See "General Use
<br />Precautions"j.
<br />Foliage Treatment (Utility and Pipeline Rights-of--Way)
<br />Use 4 to 8 quarts of Garlon 4 alone, or 3 to 4 quarts Garlon 4 in a tank mix
<br />combination with labeled rates of 2,4-D low volatle ester Tordon 101 Mixture
<br />or Tordon K and apply in a total spiny volume of 10 to 30 gallons per acre. Use
<br />the higher rotes 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-crop areas,
<br />and in forests, use Garlon 4 in oil or oil-waur mlxNfea prepared and applied
<br />as described below. When preparing mixNrcs, use as oils either a commercially
<br />available basal 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 dilucnt's manufacNrcr.
<br />Whrn mixing with a basal oil or other oils or diluents, read and follow the use
<br />dirccdons and precautions on dte product label prepared by the oil or diluent's
<br />manufacturer.
<br />Oil Mixture Sprays
<br />Add Garlon 4 [o [he required amount of oil in the spray tank or mining rank and
<br />mix thoroughly. If the mixture stands over 4 hours, reagitation is required.
<br />Oil Mixtures of Garlon 4 ind Tordon K: Tordon K and Garlon 4 may be used in
<br />tank mix combination for basal bade treatment of woody plants. These herbicides
<br />are incompatible and will not form a stable mixture when mixed togedier directly
<br />in oil. Stable tank mtxNrcs 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 />ratio. (See product bulletin for mixing instructions.)
<br />OiLWater Mixture Sprays
<br />First, premix the Garlon 4, oil and surfactant m a separate container. Do not allow
<br />any water or mixures containing water N get into the Garlon 4 or the premu.
<br />Fill the spray tank about half full with water, then slowly add the premix with
<br />nnnuous agitation and complete filling the tank with water. Continue moderate
<br />tenon.
<br />~te: If the premix is put in the tank without any water. [he first water added
<br />may form a thick "invert" (water in oil) emulsion which will be hard to break.
<br />Basil Bark Treatment
<br />7o control susceptible woody plants with stems less than 6 inches in basal diameter,
<br />mix ] N 5 gallons of Garlon 4 in enough oil to make 100 gallons of spray mixture.

<br />Apply with knapsack sprayer or power spraying equipment using low pressure
<br />(20-40 psi). Spray the basal parts of brash and tree franks ro a height of 12 N I S
<br />inches from the ground. Thorough wetring of the indicated area is necessary for
<br />good control. Spray until mnoff at [he ground line is noticeable. Old or rough
<br />bark requires more spray than smooth young bark. Apply at any Ome, including
<br />the winter months, except when snow or water prevent spraying N the ground
<br />line.
<br />Low Volume Basal Bark Treatment
<br />To control susceptible woody plants with stems less than 6 inches in basal diameter,
<br />mix 20 N 30 gallons of Garlon 4 in enough oil to make 100 gallons of spiny
<br />mixture. Apply with a backpack or knapsack sprayer using low pressure and a
<br />solid cone or flat fan nozzle. Spray the basal pans of bnrsh and trx tmnks in
<br />a manner which thoroughly wets the lower stems, including the root collar area,
<br />but no[ N the point of runoff. Herbicide concentration should vary with size and
<br />susceptibility of species treated. Apply at any dine, including the winter months,
<br />except when snow or water prevent spraying to the ground line or when stem
<br />surfaces are saNmted with water.
<br />Garlon 4 Plus Tordon K in OB Tank Mix: Garlon 4 and Tordon K may be
<br />applied as a low volume basal bark treatment N improve control of certain woody
<br />species such as ash, elm, maple, poplar, aspen, hackbery, oak, oceahspray, birch,
<br />hickory, pine, tanoak, cherry, locust, sassafras, and multiflom rose. (See product
<br />bulletin for mixing instructions.)
<br />Streamline Basal Bark Treatment (Southern States)
<br />To control or suppreu susceptible woody plants for conifer rtlease, mix 20 to
<br />30 gallons of Garlon 4 m enough oil m make 100 gallons of spray mixture.
<br />Apply with a backpack or knapsack sprayer using equipment which provides a
<br />directed straight stream spiny. Apply sufficient spiny N one side of stems less
<br />than 3 inches in basal diameter ro form a treated zone that is 6 inches in height.
<br />When the optimum amount of spray mixturt is applied, [he heated zone shoWd
<br />widen N encircle the stem within approximately 30 minutes. Treat both sides of
<br />stems which are 3 to 4 inches in basal diameter. Direct the spray at bark that
<br />is approximately 12 to 24 inches above ground. Pines (loblolly, slash, ahortleaf,
<br />and Virginia) up N 2 inches in diameter breast height (dbh) can be controlled
<br />by directing the spiny at a point approximately 4 feet above ground. Vary spiny
<br />mixture concentration with erne and susceptibility of the species being treated.
<br />Best results are achieved when applications arc made to young vigorously growing
<br />stems which have not developed the thicker bark chameteristic of slower growing,
<br />understory trees in older stands. This technique is not recommended for scrub
<br />and live oak species, including blackjack, turkey, posS live, bluejack and laurel
<br />oaks, or bigleaf maple. Apply from approximately 6 weeks prior to hardwood
<br />leaf expansion in the spring until approximately 2 months afar leaf expansion
<br />is completed. Do not apply when snow or water prevent spraying at the desired
<br />height above ground level.
<br />Low Volume Stem Bark Band Treatment (North Central and Lake States)
<br />To control susceptible woody Plants with stems less than 6 inches in basal diameter,
<br />mix 20 ro 30 gallons of Garlon 4 in enough oil to make 100 gallons of spay
<br />mixture. Apply with a backpack or knapsack sprayer using law pressure and a
<br />solid cone or flat fan nozzle. Apply the spray in a 6 to 10 inch wide band that
<br />completely weucles the stem. Spray m a manner that completely wets the bark,
<br />but not m the point of runoff. The treatment band may be positioned at any height
<br />up to the first major branch. For best results apply the band as low as possible.
<br />Spray mixture concentration should vary with size and susceptibility of species to
<br />be treated. Applications may be made at any time, including winter months.
<br />ThiNine Basal Bark Treatment
<br />To control susceptible woody plants with stems less than 6 inches in diameter,
<br />apply Garlon 4 either undiluted or mined at 50-75°/a vW 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 m IS milliliters
<br />of Garlon 4 or oil mixture with Garton 4 to treat single stems and from 25 N
<br />]00 milliliters to treat clumps of stems. Use an applicabr metered or calibrated
<br />to deliver the small amounu required.
<br />Dormant Stem Treatment
<br />Dormant stem treatments will control susceptible woody plants and vines with
<br />sums less than 2 inches in diameter. Plants with stems greater than 2 inches in
<br />diameter may not be controlled and resprouting may occur. This treatment method
<br />is best suited for sites with dense, small diameter brash. Dormant stem treatments
<br />of Garton 4 can also be used as a chemical sidetrim for controlling lateral branches
<br />of larger trees that encroach onto roadside, utility, or o[ber tights-of--way.
<br />Mix 4 to 8 quarts of Garlon 4 in 2 to 3 gallons of crop oil concentrate or other
<br />recommended oil and add this mixture to enough water to make 100 gallons of
<br />spray solution. Use continuous adequate agitation. Apply with Radiaro, OC or
<br />equivalent nozzles, or handgun using 70 N 100 gallons of spay per acre N ensure
<br />uniform coverage of stems. Garlon 4 may be mixed with 4 quarts of Weedone
<br />170 herbicide [o improve the control of black cherry and broaden the spectrum
<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, generally
<br />February through April. Do not apply to wet or saturated bark as poor control
<br />may result. '
<br />Cut Stump Treatment
<br />7o control resprouting of cu[ stumps of susceptible species, mix 20 N 30 gallons
<br />of Garlon 4 in enough oil to make 100 gallons of spray mixture. Apply with a
<br />backpack or knapsack sprayer using low pressures and a solid cone or flat fan
<br />nozzle. Spray the root collar area, srdcs of the stump, and flit outer portion of
<br />the cut surface including the cambium until thoroughly wet, but not to the point
<br />of mnoff. Spray mixture concentration should vary wnh size and susceptibility
