1. Avoid heavy dew (pooling when spray) on cotton plants.
2. Avoid extreme conditions (wet, dry, cold, hot).
3. Avoid “Thripy” cotton.
4. Additional additives (other than those labeled) will increase injury without improving weed control.
5. Apply proper GPA; low GPA may increase injury.
6. Succulent growing cotton is more sensitive.
7. Cotton growth stage is the greatest factor influencing injury; younger cotton, 1- to 7-leaf, is often injured less than older cotton, 8- to 15-leaf.
