Apply prior to or during periods of active growth. Early spring
to early Summer.
Rainfall carries the chemical down into the root zone where
it is absorbed by the plant's root system. Results will appear
3-6 weeks after 1/4" to 1/2" of rain.
Do not mow or cut treated plants until they have completely
defoliated at least once, or in the case of cedar, have turned
completely brown.
When treating regrowth from cut off plants, the regrowth must
be at least one year old and the rate of application based on
the original plant size.
On soils high in clay and/or organic matter, use the higher
rates.
Plants With a Single Stem or Trunk - For plants with a
single trunk, such as Oaks, Elm and Eastern Red Cedar, apply 1
to 2 pellets for every inch of stem (trunk) diameter. Distribute
the pellets uniformly around the trunk, approximately half way
between the trunk and the canopy edge.
Plants With Multi-Stems - For brushy, multi-stemmed
plants, such as Multiflora Rose, apply 1 to 2 pellets on lants
2' to 4' tall and 2 to 4 pellets on plants 4' to 6' tall. Apply
the pellets by hand to the ground at the base of the plant.
Trees With Multi-Trunks - For multi-trunked trees,
such as Tallow, add together the diameter of each trunk and
apply 1 to 2 pellets for the total number of trunk diameter
inches.
EXAMPLE: 1 trunk @ 2", 1 trunk @ 3" and 3 trunks @ 1"
equals a total of 8", thus apply 8-16 Power Pellets. Distribute
the pellets uniformly around the trunk, approximately half way
between the trunk and the canopy edge.
