Subject: Re: Question about Gramoxone?


One thing that is not often mentioned about Gramoxone is that it is light activated. If you apply it in the AM it goes to work quicikly and burns only a few cells deep. If you can apply it in the late PM it will have the night hours to penetrate deeper into the plant tissue prior to activation. You will get a more complete kill this way. However, it does not translocate in the vascular system of the plant; so only the above ground portions will be affected. Perennials with an established root, bulb, or rhizome will recover fairly quickly after the application. Seedlings that don't have an extablished root will likely be killed completely. It works much like fire or a freeze.
