Active ingredient Trifluralin Alpha, Alpha,
Alpha-Trifluoro-2,6-Dinitro-N,N-DIPROPYL-P-Toluidine (C13H16F3N3O4)
Called Scott's and the gals I talked with muddled through the label and were
very confused as I am also.
Can't be used after transplant, can be used up to 10 weeks prior to planting
up to 1 day prior to transplanting. So what's the difference between 1 day
prior to transplant and after transplant? It isn't going to dissipate in 24
hours.
My son used this product last year 2 or 3 times in his vegetable garden after
the plants were established. He grows squash, beans, chiles, tomatoes, etc.
He had a huge harvest.
Now what is the deal on this stuff?
What is it really and will it harm my plants?
It doesn't hurt bees.
