Instructions for use and consumption rates of herbicide Typhoon

Weeds that appear on the site often slow down the growth of planted vegetables and fruits. Therefore, when unnecessary grass appears, you must get rid of it immediately. For this, the herbicide "Typhoon" is often used. Before using such a herbicide liquid, you need to understand its description and recommendations for use in more detail.

Active ingredients, release form and purpose of the herbicide "Typhoon"

“Typhoon” is a non-selective herbicide that is used to completely kill weeds. The main component used in the manufacture of the product is isopropylamine salt. This substance is considered a derivative of glycine, which, when it comes into contact with weeds, leads to their death.

The product is produced in plastic canisters, the volume of which is ten liters. However, you can find herbicides in smaller five-liter containers.

How does weed killer work?

Before using Typhoon, you need to familiarize yourself with the features of its effect on weeds.

After completion of treatment, the active component of the herbicide gradually penetrates into the weed plants through the root system. Over time, isopropylamine salt accumulates in the stems and foliage, which disrupts lipid metabolism. This leads to the fact that the treated weeds stop developing, their photosynthesis stops, and the stems with leaves dry out.

Pros of use

"Typhoon" is popular among summer residents due to its advantages. Among the main advantages of this herbicide composition are the following:

• is able to completely destroy all weeds that grow in the garden or garden;
• has no soil activity;
• eliminates even old bush weeds;
• is resistant to precipitation and temperature changes;
• retains protective properties for one and a half months;
• Well compatible with many products.

Consumption rate for different plants

Before using Typhoon, you must definitely understand its consumption rates, which directly depend on the plants grown on the site:

• Corn.When cultivating a plot where corn will be grown, one and a half liters of Typhoon are consumed per hectare.
• Sunflower. In this case, the consumption rate of the herbicide mixture increases to two liters.
• Vegetable crops. When treating an area for vegetables, use 300-400 milliliters of product.

Preparation and use of working solution

Special instructions will help you correctly prepare the working solution for treating the area.

To prepare a solution that will be used to spray the weeds, fill the canister one quarter with cold water. After this, a herbicide is added to it. It is thoroughly mixed with some water, after which a little more liquid is added to the mixture.

“Typhoon” is used in the evening or morning, when there is no wind that can spread the herbicide to neighboring seedlings.

Precautions during operation

When using Typhoon, certain precautions must be taken. You need to wear protective gloves when working with the product so that your skin does not come into contact with the working fluid. You also need to protect your respiratory system in advance. To do this, put a gauze bandage or a special respirator on your face.

Sometimes the product gets into the eyes, causing them to hurt. To prevent this from happening, use construction glasses that will reliably protect your eyes from the herbicide.

Degree of toxicity

One of the main features of the Typhoon is that it is practically non-toxic and not dangerous to people. Also, the herbicide does not harm bees, insects, birds and other warm-blooded animals. The product belongs to the third hazard class.

Compatibility with other tools

Sometimes Typhoon cannot cope with the weeds that have grown on the site, and therefore it has to be increased in efficiency. To do this, it must be used in combination with other drugs. Experts recommend mixing it with other types of herbicides and nitrogen-type fertilizers.

However, before you mix the products together, you need to read their descriptions and make sure that they are suitable for each other.

How to store the herbicide?

"Typhoon" must be stored in suitable conditions so that it does not deteriorate for a long time. It is better to keep this herbicide in rooms where the temperature is 10-12 degrees above zero. Some people leave them in refrigerators. However, in this case, they must be placed in airtight and secure packaging so that the chemical does not spill and get on the food.

Are there any analogues?

It is not always possible to acquire a typhoon and therefore sometimes you have to use products that have a similar effect. These include the following herbicides:

• "Dual Gold" This is a popular herbicide composition that is often sprayed on vegetable gardens to clear them of grown weeds.
• "Atlas". This drug is most often used when processing fields with grain crops.
• "Tara." This product is used if you need to get rid of old perennial weeds.

Conclusion

"Typhoon" is considered one of the most effective remedies against overgrown grass. Before starting to treat the area, you need to understand the description of the characteristics of the herbicide and recommendations for the use of the prepared working mixture.
