Recommended dilution rate for Clinic Ace Glyphosate 360 to control Japanese Knotweed is 1:25.
This means that for every 1 part of Clinic Ace Glyphosate 360, you should mix it with 25 parts of water.
Calculation for a 7L sprayer:
Given that you have a 7L sprayer and a 5L Clinic Ace Glyphosate 360, follow these steps to calculate the dilution:
1. Determine the amount of Clinic Ace Glyphosate 360 needed:
Since the dilution rate is 1:25, you'll need 1 part of Clinic Ace Glyphosate 360 for every 25 parts of water. In this case, since the sprayer has a capacity of 7L (which is equivalent to 7000ml), the amount of Clinic Ace Glyphosate 360 required can be calculated as follows:
Amount of Clinic Ace Glyphosate 360 = (1 / 25) * 7000ml
= 0.04 * 7000ml
= 280ml
So, you'll need 280ml of Clinic Ace Glyphosate 360 for your 7L sprayer.
2. Calculate the amount of water needed:
To determine the amount of water required, subtract the amount of Clinic Ace Glyphosate 360 from the total sprayer capacity:
Amount of water needed = Total sprayer capacity - Amount of Clinic Ace Glyphosate 360
= 7000ml - 280ml
= 6720ml
Therefore, you'll need approximately 6720ml of water to dilute the Clinic Ace Glyphosate 360 in your 7L sprayer.
Preparation instructions:
1. Pour 6720ml of water into your 7L sprayer.
2. Add 280ml of Clinic Ace Glyphosate 360 to the sprayer.
3. Close the sprayer tightly and shake it well to ensure thorough mixing of the solution.
Note:
- Always follow the instructions provided on the product label for accurate dilution and application rates.
- Wear appropriate protective clothing, gloves, and eye protection when handling and applying herbicides.
- Japanese Knotweed is a highly invasive plant, and its proper control may require multiple applications and different control methods.
