Weedkiller, how much !!

If I was you, I would mix up a 25l drum at a time....and keep a couple mixed up so you can pour it straight into a knapsack...

It will keep fine for a week in a drum...... not sure how lon you could keep it but up to a month would be easily safe IMO.

 

When mixing..... put the chikara into a big mixing jug (like a 3l jug etc) and mix it with a stick or similar into a couple of litres of water, then mix that solution into your drum or knapsack... it's hard to mix it properly with such a small ammount of granular powder to such a large volume of water.

Think it should say on the label somewhere about its "post mix life span" or "tank life".

 

Sounds like Kerb could be on its way out then if FSC have banned it now. It was always great especially like said as a coctail with glyphosate:sad:

Yep, looks that way..... shame really.... they always ban the stuff that works well.

I was told the other day that it has always been ilegal to use it in a cocktail.... ie, mixed with glyphosate, but we have always done it like that.

FSC set a big bench mark for most commercial forestry owners, and so if they dont like kerb anymore, it will have a stigma attached to it and we wont get clearance to use it anywhere... so..... have to find some other residual now.... the chikara is good but really need a liquid.

I'd be surprised if that's true.

 

I know you can't mix anti cholinesterase products; I don't know what they are, but neither Kerb nor glyphosate come under that.
