<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 V2 ounce per
<br />acre.
<br />Tank Mix Combination
<br />ESCORT' XP may be tank mixed with "Embark" for improved performance in
<br />the regulation of growth and seedhead suppression. Tank mix V to V2 ounce of
<br />ESCORT' XP with Vs to V 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. TURF ONLY
<br />IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS-- INDUSTRIAL discoloration (chlorosis)
<br />• An application of ESCORT XP may cause temporary
<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"' SCOR c ol d is applied (winter
<br />that is under stress from drought, insects
<br />injury) or poor fertility.
<br />• ESCORT XP is not recommended for use on bahingrass.
<br />NATIVE GRASSES
<br />ESCORT' XP is recommended for weed control and suppression in the estab-
<br />lishment and maintenance of native grasses. It may be use where blue us

<br />Application Timing
<br />For established grasses, apply when weeds are in the seedling stage.
<br />For g�ssa is die seedling stage, apply pmplant or preemergence where the soil
<br />(seed bed) has been cultivated.
<br />BRUSH CONTROL
<br />Application Information cor
<br />ESCORT Xp is recommended for the control of undesirable ba gr o w ing in
<br />in
<br />non-crop areas. Applica tions may be made by air, high ground
<br />low volume ground application and ultra -low volume ground application. Except
<br />as noted for multiflom rose, ESCORT XP should be applied as a spray to the
<br />foliage.
<br />The lication 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 groundpp a will require
<br />100 to 400 gallons of water per acre; low volume ground application
<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 and equipment used, thorough coverage of
<br />the foliage is necessary oPt'm

<br />Application Timing
<br />Make a foliar application of the recommended rate of ESCORT' XP during the
<br />period from till leaf expansion in the spring until the development of full fall
<br />coloration on deciduous species to be controlled. Coniferous species may be
<br />treated at anytime during the growing season.

<br />Spotgun Basal Soli Treatment ion of ESCORT XP by
<br />For control of multiflora rose, prepare a spray supens
<br />mixing 1 ounce per gallon of water. Mi vigorously until the ESCORT XP is
<br />dispersed and agitate periodically while applying the spray suspension.
<br />Apply rate the spiny preparation with an exact delivery handgun applicator. Apply
<br />at the 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. When treating large pia is
<br />and more than one delivery is required, make applications 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 herbici read
<br />and follow all use instructions, application rates, wamngs and precations
<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 b of ESCORT
<br />pasture, range and wheat. This is extremely importan
<br />XP can kill or severely injure most agricultural crops.
<br />The selected sprayer should be equipped with an agitation system to keep
<br />ESCORT XP suspended in the spray tank. Use a sufficient volume of water to
<br />thoroughly cover die foliage of undesirable weeds, generally 10 to 40 gallons per
<br />acre. Select a spray volume and delivery system that will deliver a uniform spray
<br />pattern. Be sure the sprayer is calibrated before use. Avoid
