Subject: Gramoxone , Spray Tips and Carrier


Cen Ks		What is the NAT approved spray tip for spraying Gramoxone ? Any preference on using COC or MSO ? Will be using water as carrier, how many GPA carrier? Any special considerations if spraying small weeds early when its cool or late season and big weeds ? TIA

If you have dicamba tips from soybeans, use those. Sure helps with bowling ball sized droplets if you’re concerned about what borders ya/etc.

is no drift or killing weeds your goal? those tips do a TERRILBE job, allowing the drops to roll off the leaf. Med course to fine droplets will kill better, but will drift if allowed. spray in 2-5 mph wind, in a direction of a non crop. if you cant do that, you likely will not succeed.

Drift is as important as killing weeds. I’m not an asshole to my neighbors; maybe you’re known as “one of them”.

Full rate of chemical, using those tips with enough gallonage you won’t have a problem. Happy spraying.

East Central Arkansas		This year I ran the Greenleaf TD 11004 tips at 15 GPA. I use surfactant and a couple Oz of metribuzin where the crop allows.

I always use a tip with medium to course droplets and a NIS. Coverage is key with gramoxone. If there is any concern with physical drift you can run drift reducer like interlock.

Eastern Washington State		You need good coverage, you can get that will a smaller droplet size and less GPA (though this is more prone to drift) or a larger droplet size and more GPA (more of a logistical challenge).

I've been using Greenleaf Airmix nozzles at 11-12 GPA and ~60 PSI, these work well for me. A TeeJet AIXR would be very similar.

As far as mixes go, I use crop oil and I add 3 gals/100 of UAN. I think the UAN is very important. I feel Gramoxone works best when its hot and dry. I've had plants grow out of it when I got a rain and cool days a couple days after spraying.

Central PA		It's not what's recommended but I've never had a problem getting a kill with AI nozzles and really haven't had a problem with drift either. Normally run 18-20 GPA.
