Description

Propyzamide 500 SC herbicide

Active Ingredient: Propyzamide @ 500g/L

Similar or Comparable: Kerb 500 Selective Herbicide (Dow) & Pronamide Selective Herbicide (Amgrow)

Surefire Propyzamide 500 SC Herbicide is for selective control of certain grasses and broadleaf weeds in Lettuce, Sports Turf, Home Lawns, Legumes Seed Crops and Pastures.

Propyzamide 500 SC Herbicide is a 500g/L Propyzamide formulation, providing a highly effective post-emergent control of Winter Grass in Turf.

What turf species can Surefire Propyzamide 500 SC Herbicide be used on for Winter Grass control;

Common Couch (Green Couch / Bermuda Grass)
Qld Blue Couch
Buffalo Grass

Nb – Do not apply to bluegrass, ryegrass, fescue or bentgrass turf/lawns.

Significant damage may occur to some varieties such as Kikuyu. It is recommended that small areas be tested for turf safety before large-scale application occurs. Turf safety testing is best assessed at 6 – 8 weeks after application.

For optimum results in turf, it is best to apply Surefire Propyzamide 500 SC Herbicide prior to germination or to young, actively growing winter grass plants in Autumn / early Winter. Propyzamide is a systemic herbicide that is absorbed by the roots and translocated throughout the plant. Therefore, immediate irrigation with 12 – 25 mm of water is required to move the chemical into the root zone. Follow-up irrigation with 12 – 25 mm is required 24 hours later. This amount of water is not solely used to incorporate the propyzamide into the root zone, this amount of water also facilitates the essential need to solubilize the propyzamide, without total solubilization of the active means the plant can only absorb less than a lethal dose of propyzamide – resulting in poor efficacy. Best results are obtained by applying the product to cool, moist soil

When used in Turf, Surefire Propyzamide 500 SC Herbicide works by stunting the growth of Winter Grass, particularly the germinating seed which will start coming up in Autumn (generally speaking). Having stunted/stopped the plant´s growth, it can not spread/reproduce. Sustained treatment is required to control winter grass, and ok for Buffalo and Couch lawns.

The product is what it is. Not made by Specialist sales, but everything I’ve bought before from these guys has done the job. Just used it the other day. The product arrived in perfect condition and a speedy delivery (in covid times). And I live in Perth, as far away from Toowoomba as you can get (almost). Thanks once again.
