Safe Weeding – Trial 1

Well, we’ve started our series of planned trials utilising Contact Organics LocalSafe Weed Terminator – here’s how it’s going…

30/06/2019 – After receiving about 15mm rain the previous night and in the morning, we ended-up with a partly cloudy day with a maximum ambient temperature of 10 degrees C.

Started spraying with a backpack unit at about 2:30pm using the recommended spray ratio for high density weed populations – 1:1:20 (50mL:50mL:1L) – before/after pics below…

30/06/2019 – round yard before spraying
30/06/2019 – round yard weed about 1 hour after spraying, showing obvious action
02/07/2019 – same round yard weed about 48 hours after spraying – looking crispy!
01/07/2019 – round yard about 24 hours after spraying – easy to see where the spray has been
02/07/2018 – round yard about 48 hours after spraying
30/06/2019 – outside round yard gate before spraying
02/07/2019 – outside round yard gate about 48 hours after spraying
02/07/2019 – outside round yard edge about 48 hours after spraying
30/06/2019 – tie-up rail before spraying
01/07/2019 – tie-up rail about 24 hours after spraying
03/07/2019 – tie-up rail about 72 hours after spraying

We plan to do some more trials using different mix-ratios and targeting different types of weeds – stay tuned…
