Application period
Timing of application is crucial. For best results apply to actively growing weeds.
General
Only use Blaster on permanent grassland that has been established for at least one year. Do not apply the product overall where clover is an important part of the sward. Clover will be killed by application of Blaster. Do NOT spray in drought, very hot or very cold conditions.
Occasionally, some yellowing of the sward may be seen following treatment, this is quickly outgrown. Avoid damage and drift onto susceptible crops or waterways. All conifers, especially Pine and Larch are very sensitive to spray drift.
Refer to Product label for complete application information. Always read the label: Use pesticides safely.

Weeds

Rate of use Litres/Ha
|
Optimum timing of application
|
Common Nettle
|
2ltrs
|
Spray when actively growing but preferably before flowering (normally up to mid June)
|
Dock (curled and broad leave)
|
4ltrs
|
Treat in the spring when the docks are in the rosette stage up to 25 cm high. If the grass has been cut leave for 2-3 weeks to allow sufficient re-growth to occur before spraying. On large well established docks, or where there is a high reservoir of seed in the soil, a second dose the following year may be required.
|
Creeping Thistle
|
3ltrs
|
Spray when actively growing but before flowering spikes are 15 cm high. For thistles beyond this stage the rate should be increased to 4.0 litres/ha. Applications of BLASTER at flowering or during seeding is likely to produce reduced levels of control. If grass has been cut treat 2-3 weeks after cutting when sufficient regrowth has occurred.
|
Bramble, broom and gorse
|
4ltrs
|
Spray in June-August when actively growing but before plants begin to senesce in the autumn. It is essential that, particularly with large bushes, all the foliage is thoroughly wetted or incomplete kill may result.
