Garlon™ RTU provides professional vegetation managers selective control of woody plants in a convienent, ready to use formulation for basal bark and stump treatment programs. Garlon™ RTU requires no mixing and is packaged in the innovative Jerribox.
Garlon™ RTU is a ready to use product that provides control of hard-to-kill woody plants for basal bark and stump treatment programs.
Why use Garlon™ RTU?
Garlon™ RTU controls of more than 30 deciduous tree species, including aspen, birch and poplar. It is designed for selective, direct stem application to woody species.
Garlon™ RTU formulated to be used right out of the container, no mixing is required. It is designed for selective, direct stem application to woody species.
Ability to use any time throughout the year if plants are dry.
Aerial
• Not registered for aerial application.
Ground
Streamline
This has proven to be the fastest and most effective method of selective basal bark application. Best results are on young, actively growing stems less than 8 cm in diameter.
• Achieving complete “wrap” of the solution around the entire stem circumference is essential for effectiveness.
• Spray 30 to 50 cm above ground level:
- For stems less than 8 cm basal diameter, spray a band 5 cm wide on one side of each stem.
- For stems 8 to 15 cm basal diameter, spray a band 5 cm wide on two sides of each stem (Two-sided Streamline).
• With sufficient volume, the treated zone should widen to encircle the entire stem circumference within 30 minutes.
Stump Treatment
This method is excellent for prevention of re-sprouting. It also reduces the need for repeated cutting of large diameter stumps of species that sprout from the base or sucker from roots. Applications may be made to both old and freshly cut stumps.
Thoroughly wet the stump, including:
• Cut surfaces, especially the cambium layer just inside the bark.
• The remaining bark to the ground line, including the root collar.
For the selective control of individual, undesirable woody plants, use Garlon RTU as directed below. Do not add water, mineral oil or vegetable oil. Do not dilute. Garlon RTU is formulated to be used right out of the container. Use low nozzle pressure to minimize spattering of spray solution off the target stem. For best results, apply when stem and bark are dry.
One-Sided Low Volume
To control woody plants with stems less than 15 cm in basal diameter, apply Garlon RTU Herbicide with a knapsack or backpack sprayer using a flat fan or solid cone nozzle, or wick attachment. Low pump pressures of 70 to 210 kPa are recommended. Spray the basal parts of at least one side of each stem to thoroughly wet the lower 30 cm, including the root collar area, but not to the point of runoff. Apply at any time, including the winter months, except when snow or water prevents spraying at the ground line.
Streamline
To control woody plants, apply using a knapsack or backpack sprayer with a flat fan or solid cone nozzle, or wick attachment. Low pump pressures of 70 to 210 kPa are recommended. Apply sufficient spray to one side of stems less than 8 cm in basal diameter to form a band 5 cm in width. When the optimum amount of spray mixture is applied, the treated zone should widen to encircle the stem within approximately 30 minutes. Treat both sides of stems which are 8 to 15 cm in basal diameter. Direct the spray at a point on the stem that is approximately 30 to 50 cm above ground level. Optimal results are achieved when applications are made to young vigorously growing stems which have not developed the
thicker bark characteristics of slower growing, understory trees in older stands. Apply at any time, including the winter months, except when snow or water prevents spraying at the desired height above ground level.
Cut Stump Treatment
To control resprouting of cut stumps of woody species, apply with a backpack or knapsack sprayer using a flat fan or a solid cone nozzle. Low pump pressures of 70 to 210 kPa are recommended. Thoroughly wet the outer portion of the cut surface adjacent to the cambium and the sides of the stumps, including the root collar area, but not to the point of runoff. Apply at any time, including the winter months, except when snow or water prevents spraying to the ground line. Care must be given to ensure treatment of all
cut stems in a clump.
