<br />Growth Suppression and Seedbead inhibition
<br />(Chemical Mowing)
<br />Application Information
<br />ESCORT XP is recommended for growth suppression and seedhead inhibition
<br />in well established fescue and bluegrass turf at the use rate of V4 to Vr ounce per
<br />acre.
<br />Tank Mix Combination
<br />ESCORT on Xp be may ��d sxeedheeaad for x �4to y ounce of
<br />the regulation of growth
<br />ESCORT XP with Vi to 1 4 pint of "Embark ".
<br />Application Timing
<br />Application may be made after at least 2 to 3 inches of new growth has emerged
<br />until the appearance of the seed stalk.
<br />IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS — INDUSTRIAL TURF ONLY
<br />• An application of ESCORT XP may cause temporary discoloration (chlorosis)
<br />of the grasses. Use the lower recommended rates for minimum discoloration.
<br />• With fescue and bluegrass, sequential applications made during the same or
<br />consecutive growth periods (i.e. spring and fall) may result in excessive injury
<br />to turf.
<br />• Excessive injury may result when DuPont d SCOR d Xp is applie (winter
<br />tu rf
<br />that is under stress from drought, insects,
<br />injury) or poor fertility.
<br />• ESCORT XP is not recommended for use on bahiagrass.
<br />NATIVE GRASSES
<br />ESCORT XP is recommended for weed control and suppression in the estab-
<br />lishment and maintenance of native grasses. I may be u ea (meadow buffalo

<br />• Suppression is a visual reduction in weed competition (reduced population of wed gad
<br />c to untreated areas. Degree of suppression will vary
<br />environmental conditions following treatment.
<br />Application Timing
<br />For established grasses, apply when weeds are in the seedbng stage.
<br />For grasses in the seedling stage, apply preplant or preemergence where the soil
<br />(seed bed) has been cultivated.
<br />BRUSH CONTROL
<br />Application Information
<br />ESCORT XP is recommended for the control of undesirable brush growing in
<br />non -crop areas. Appli cations may be made by air, high volume ground application,
<br />low volume ground application and ultra -low volume ground application. Except
<br />as noted for multiflora rose. ESCORT XP should be applied as a spray to the
<br />foliage.
<br />The application volume required will vary with the height and density of the brush
<br />and the application equipment used. Generally, aerial applications will require
<br />15 to 25 gallons of water per acre; high volume ground application will require
<br />100 to 400 gslions of water per acre; low volume ground application will require
<br />20 to 50 gallons of water per acre; and ultra -low volume ground application will
<br />require 10 to 20 gallons of water per acre.
<br />Regardless of the application volume eaud equipment used, thorough coverage of
<br />o
<br />the foliage is necessary op vo

<br />Spotgun Bawl Soil Treatment ion of ESCORT XP by
<br />For control of multiflora rose, prepare a spray suspew
<br />mixing 1 ounce per gallon of water. Mix vigorously until the ESCORT XP is
<br />dispersed and agitate periodically while applying the spray suspension.
<br />Apply the spray preparation with an exact delivery handgun applicator. Apply
<br />at the rate of 4 milliliters for each 2 feet of rose canopy diameter. Direct the
<br />treatment to the soil within 2 feet of the stem union ca Wh ns �ndg large plants
<br />and more than one delivery is required, make appli on opposite of
<br />the plant.
<br />Applications should be made from early spring to summer.
<br />IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS— NON -CROP BRUSH ONLY
<br />• When using tank mixtures of ESCORT XP with companion herbicides, read
<br />and follow all use instructions, application rates, warnings and precautions
<br />appearing on the labels. Follow the most restrictive label instructions for each
<br />of the herbicides used.
<br />SPRAY EQUIPMENT
<br />Following an ESCORT XP application, do not use die sprayer or mixing equip-
<br />ment for application to agricultural crops, except that it may be used to treat
<br />pasture, range and wheat This is extremely important as low rates of ESCORT
<br />XP can kill or severely injure most agricultural crops.
<br />The selected sprayer should be equipped with an agitati on system to keep
<br />ESCORT XP suspended in the spray tank. Use a suffi ii nt volume Of water
<br />thoroughly cover the foliage of undesirable weeds, generally 10 to 40 gallons per
<br />acre. Select a spray volume and delivery system that will deliver a uniforms sht t overpping p Be sure the sprayer is calibrated before use. Avoi d b la C &P Press.
