We often get calls about tank mixing certain herbicides and their compatibility with different products.\u00a0 I have heard of issues\u00a0mixing paraquat (brand name Gramoxone)\u00a0with certain herbicides, such as Reflex.\u00a0 I talked to Dr. Eric Prostko, Extension Weed Scientist, about the possibility of mixing issues with paraquat and he gave me some information on ways to prevent it.\u00a0 These recommendations came straight from the Gramoxone SL 2.0 (paraquat)\u00a0label on the best way to tank mix it with other herbicides.\u00a0 Here’s what the label says:<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Order of Tank Mixing – In general, Gramoxone SL 2.0\u00a0mixes with other products and should be tank mixed as follows:<\/strong><\/p>\n Fill spray tank 1\/2 full with clean water or other approved carriers such as clear liquid fertilizer<\/strong><\/p>\n Begin tank agitation and continue throughout mixing and spraying.<\/strong><\/p>\n Add nonionic surfactant to tank. <\/strong><\/p>\n Add dry formulations (WP, DF, etc.) to tank.<\/strong><\/p>\n Add liquid formulations (SC, EC, L, etc.) to tank.<\/strong><\/p>\n Add Gramoxone SL 2.0 to tank. <\/strong><\/p>\n Add crop oil concentrate or methylated seed oil where needed. <\/strong><\/p>\n Fill remainder of spray tank.\u00a0 <\/strong><\/p>\n Always refer to labels of other pesticides products for mixing directions and precautions which may differ from those outlined here.<\/strong><\/p>\n Since many of the herbicides listed on this label are available in several types of formulations it is advisable to perform a jar test to check physical compatibility.<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" We often get calls about tank mixing certain herbicides and their compatibility with different products.\u00a0 I have heard of issues\u00a0mixing paraquat (brand name Gramoxone)\u00a0with certain herbicides, such as Reflex.\u00a0 I talked to Dr. Eric Prostko, Extension Weed Scientist, about the possibility of mixing issues with paraquat and he gave me some information on ways to […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":97,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-149","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/site.extension.uga.edu\/tattnall\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/149","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/site.extension.uga.edu\/tattnall\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/site.extension.uga.edu\/tattnall\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/site.extension.uga.edu\/tattnall\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/97"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/site.extension.uga.edu\/tattnall\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=149"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/site.extension.uga.edu\/tattnall\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/149\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":150,"href":"https:\/\/site.extension.uga.edu\/tattnall\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/149\/revisions\/150"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/site.extension.uga.edu\/tattnall\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=149"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/site.extension.uga.edu\/tattnall\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=149"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/site.extension.uga.edu\/tattnall\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=149"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
