How it works
- SOLO delivers the solid weed control you need to grow a great crop.
- It controls weeds growing at the time of application and offers exceptional follow-crop safety.
When to apply
SOLO has a wide window of application that allows you to control early-emerging weeds before they affect yield.
| Crop or weed type | Stage |
|---|
Clearfield canola
Clearfield lentils
Clearfield sunflowers
Clearfield XCEED
Peas
Broadleaf weeds
Grassy weeds | 2- to 6-leaf stage
2- to 6-leaf stage
2- to 8-leaf stage
2- to 6-leaf stage
1- to 6-true-leaf stage
Cotyledon to 4-leaf stage
1- to 4-true-leaf stage (6 total leaves, including 2 tillers) |
How much to apply
- Each case of SOLO contains enough herbicide to treat 40 acres.
- The surfactant MERGE® is required for herbicide activity and is available separately from your retailer.
- Always ensure that the rate of MERGE is 0.5 L/100 L of spray solution (0.5% spray solution) for optimal performance.
For example:
| Acres | Water Required | MERGE Required | SOLO Required |
|---|
| 40 acres | 10 imp. gallons/acre | 1 x 8.1 L jug | 4x10 acre pouches |
| 40 acres | 400 imp. gallons/acre | 1 x 8.1 L jug | 4x10 acre pouches |
Application tips
- SOLO should be applied early to maximize yield.
- To optimize herbicide performance, apply SOLO in warm weather to actively growing weeds.
- Do not apply SOLO if freezing temperatures are forecast or immediately after a frost or unseasonably
cold weather. Temperatures near freezing (below 5ºC) will prevent optimum herbicide performance,
as the weeds are not actively growing.
- Initial transient crop yellowing may be observed after application, but this is outgrown and will not affect yield.
- Ensure that the rate of MERGE® is 0.5 L /100 L of spray solution.
