Application notes and guidance:

Knapsack sprays should be applied with a pressure not exceeding 2 bar
Applications with a Rotary Atomiser should be applied with a minimum droplet diameter of 200 microns at a rate of 10-40 L/ ha
Knapsack sprayers will, on average, deliver 10 L spray solution per 500m2 (200 L/ ha) when sprayed with a 1m spray width at a walking pace of 1m/s
Different application rates apply for VLV (Low Volume nozzles) e.g.: 10 L / 1,000m2 (100 L/ ha) using a nozzle pressure of 1.5 bar
Bracken should be treated once the fronds are fully open but before it begins to turn yellow in late summer
Aquatic reeds are best treated August-September

Recommended safety clothing / PPE as per the MSDS; chemical resistant gloves, eye protection
Aquatic weed control:For improving control of aquatic weeds, we recommend adding "TopFilm Oneshot", a herbicide improver.

Took a few days to start to show signs of killing off the weeds, but then killed off all the weeds.

I bought this product to control aquatic reeds choking a pond. 3 weeks later there is no real sign that it has had any effect. I will be getting my waders back on and giving it another dose at a much stronger rate than recommended in the instructions

Hi Jonathan - Thank you for your feedback. Roundup ProActive is a proven performer for decades. Aquatic weeds are very tricky to control and more than one application may be required since getting the spray to stick is half the battle ! Approval for maximum dose rates comes from the label and is formulated after extensive scientific trials and government approval. If you would like any further information - please do not hesitate to contact us.
