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.

A great product doing exactly what it says on the tin and surprisingly economical to us as less product is required than other similar products on the market. Good to see that it is water resistant after only one hour, much better than the usual six hours. I would recommend Roundup ProActive 360 to anyone.

Purchased to rid pond of duckweed.Used with associated product. Two applications without much effect. Will persevere.

Hi Chris thanks for leaving us a review. Treating duckweed is a nightmare because it can frequently be floating just beneath the surface, or have any spray washed off by the gentlest of breezes or motion in the water. Roundup & Topfilm are only effective on emergent aquatic weeds and reliably on bigger leaf surfaces.

Good product but earlier use killed fish, we thought this was aquatic safe ?
