Weed killer. The best weed control: reviews. How Tornado Herbicide Works

There is an opinion that if the ground is covered with a black film and preserved in this form for a year, then all the weeds on the site will disappear. Annual weeds will disappear, but the method may not work on malicious rhizomes - dandelion, horseradish, thistle thistle, wheatgrass. Perennial weeds can only be destroyedcontinuous herbicides and thus save 2 - 3 machining operations. To get rid of weeds for a long time, it is necessary to use a general action herbicide based onglyphosate... The chemicals gradually penetrate through the leaf blade into the root system and burn out any buds that might wake up. The agent is dissolved in water and sprayed over the plantings. The main thing is not to miss the mark over time. The best period is spring, when the leaves have already reached a height of 10-15 cm. If all the work is carried out in a timely manner, you can get by with economical, gentle dosages, but it’s worth being late - the weeds increase their mass, so you have to increase the consumption rate of drugs.

The ideal time for surgery is after rain and in clear, sunny weather, without the threat of subsequent precipitation. The necessary conditions - wet soil, new leaves and a slightly higher concentration of the product than indicated on the package. After processing for two weeks, you can not weed the ground and pull out weeds.

Description of the drug for weed control Roundup

Roundup Weed Control - a universal preparation for the destruction of any weeds... Roundup is one of the most widely used herbicides worldwide. The drug is used as a systemic herbicide of continuous action, the treatment is carried out before sowing or before germination. Roundup from weeds affects only leaves or young shoots, does not have soil activity!

Features of Roundup weed control

• Roundup is one of the safest herbicides in the world. When used in accordance with the instructions, it is not dangerous for humans and the environment
• Completely devoid of soil activity (does not accumulate in the soil). Sowing can be done immediately after treatment with Roundup
• Provides complete destruction of annual and perennial, cereal and dicotyledonous weeds, affects both aboveground and underground parts
• Active substance: glyphosate

The mechanism of action of the herbicide "Roundup"

Roundup herbicide is completely absorbed by the plant within 4-6 hours after application to the surface of leaves or shoots. Further, within 5-7 days, it spreads to the roots and other parts of the plant. Roundup weed killer disrupts amino acid synthesis, causing the plant to die. The first signs of the drug's effect are noticeable within 5-10 days after application, yellowing appears and the plants wither. The complete disappearance of weeds appears 2-3 weeks after treatment.
The drug does not affect the plant through the soil and does not interfere with the germination of seeds, it can only penetrate through leaves or young shoots. In soil, Roundup quickly loses its activity and decomposes into natural substances.

Benefits of Roundup weed control

• The product destroys weeds before they can damage the crop
• Due to the use of the herbicide, there is a decrease in the number of mechanical treatments of the site. Thanks to this, soil moisture is retained and sowing takes place at the optimal time.
• Field germination of crops is noticeably increased

Composition: Roundup contains 360 g / L glyphosate and 180 g / L surfactant.

Application of Roundup

Spraying with Roundup should be carried out on green weeds during the period of their intensive growth, in dry, calm weather. Rain that has passed less than 6 hours after treatment can wash the preparation off the leaves and significantly reduce the effect. Spraying is not recommended when strong wind or use sprayers with fine spray (spray guns, vacuum cleaners). When working near cultivated plants, in order to avoid their death, cover with a screen made of film or other material. The drug easily copes with hard-to-eradicate weeds, such as: hogweed, thistle, wheatgrass, horse sorrel, dandelion, nettle, burdock and others. Within 5 - 7 days after spraying, no loosening of the soil or removal of weeds should be carried out mechanically, because during this period, the drug penetrates into the roots. Shrubs are more sensitive to Roundup weed control in the second half of summer.

Tornado

Tornado Weed Control Agent - one of the most widespread and widely used herbicides. The drug Tornado is used as a systemic herbicide of continuous action, it is used in gardens and vineyards, on household plots to combat annual and perennial weeds. It enters the plant through leaves and stems, enters the root system and destroys the entire plant. It is recommended for the control of such weeds as creeping wheatgrass, pigs, cattail, bindweed, reed, thistle.

The mechanism of action of the drug "Weed Tornado"

The drug Tornado penetrates into the plant in 2 - 3 hours, visible signs of damage appear within 7-10 days (yellowing, wilting occurs), and after 2 - 3 weeks (depending on weather conditions), complete weed death is observed. In the soil, the Tornado herbicide completely decomposes within a month, but in the soil it does not pose any threat to plants, therefore, cultivated plants can be planted on the treated areas after 2 to 4 days.

Safety Weed Control Tornado

Tornado remedy is completely harmless to bees and warm-blooded animals, but toxic to fish. Weed tornado is a low-toxic drug (hazard class 3), but it must not be allowed to get on the mucous membranes of the eyes.

Weed preparation Hurricane Forte

Hurricane Forte - non-selective, postemergence herbicide. Designed for the complete destruction of annual and perennial weeds, as well as trees and shrubs. The drug is used in the development of sites, to prepare sites for sowing next year, for lawns, as well as along paths, fences, greenhouses. The special formula ensures the best action of glyphosate in a variety of situations.

The principle of action of the means "Hurricane Forte Weed"

The herbicide Hurricane Forte is absorbed into the plant through the aerial parts: leaves and stems. The drug penetrates into plants within 2-3 hours and easily moves throughout the plant, stopping its growth. Visible symptoms appear after 7-10 days, and after 2-3 weeks (depending on weather conditions and the physiological state of plants), the weeds are completely killed. Cereal weed is more sensitive to the drug than broadleaf weed.

Benefits of the herbicide Hurricane Forte

• a new generation drug, one of the most effective among different forms glyphosate
• does not enter plants through the soil, does not interfere with seed germination
• the product decomposes into natural substances: carbon dioxide, water, phosphates, ammonium
• weeds treated with herbicide do not grow back
• Hurricane Forte is the only glyphosate in the form of a potassium salt with high water solubility, which increases the effectiveness and speed of action
• the product is very effective for pre-harvest desiccation of grain crops
• allows you to get rid of weeds on: railway tracks, power lines, roadsides, industrial buildings, areas around warehouses, storage facilities, etc.
• cultivated fields are less susceptible to erosion and have a greater moisture supply

Ingredients: BP, 500 g / l acid glyphosate.

Application of the weed remedy Hurricane Forte

The remedy is applied from spring to late autumn on green weeds. Weeds should not be mowed or weeded before processing. Spraying should be carried out in dry, calm weather, at least 3 hours before rain! For 5-7 days after treatment with Uragan Forte, do not carry out mechanical action on weeds.

Preparation of working solution Hurricane Forte against weeds

Weed control description Rap, BP

Rap drug has a continuous effect. It is used for the destruction of all kinds of weeds and woody-shrub plants, including such weeds as bindweed and thistle, creeping wheatgrass, pig and others.

The active ingredient concentration of acid glyphosate in the form of isopropylamine salt is 360 g / l. The drug is available in the form of an aqueous solution.

Benefits of Weed Rape

Possesses unique advantages, ensuring the destruction of all forms of weeds along with the root system, is suitable for use on the territory of all agricultural crops, does not have the ability to penetrate into plants from the soil, can be used before planting / sowing and emergence of agricultural plants without limiting crop rotation ... In terms of phytotoxicity, it has no resistant crops.

Application of weed brine

Its action is provided by the absorption of the drug by weeds for 4-6 hours. Further, the herbicide blocks the synthesis of aromatic amino acids in the plant. The drug penetrates weeds by spraying, through leaves, shoots and green stems, moving towards the root system. It is not absorbed from the soil, allowing you to process the area near useful crops, seeds, until the moment of planting / sowing.

Visually, the effect of the drug Rap is observed:

Features of the use of the continuous action herbicide Rap

The period of action of the protection of the preparation Rap, BP lasts until the sowing of a new wave of weeds - for one or more months. It can be used at air temperatures above zero degrees, until the soil freezes. To obtain the maximum effect of the action, do not spray weeds with strong dew, before waiting or after rain for 6 hours, moderate air humidity and average temperature, wind speed no more than 5 m / s. It is not allowed for the processing of cultivated plants, it is prohibited for use in sanitary zones, near economic reservoirs. Storage conditions are indicated in the instructions for the preparation.

Description of the drug Glyphos

Glyphos is a special aqueous solution, the main purpose of which is to combat most weeds, both annual and perennial. A substance that directly prevents the appearance of weeds is glyphosate. Its concentration is 360 grams per liter. In addition to weeds, it has a neutralizing effect on unwanted artisanal and woody vegetation.

The principle of action of means Glyphos

The substance blocks the synthesis of aromatic amino acids in plants, thereby affecting those weeds that were at the place of use at the time of spraying. The drug has no effect on those plants that appeared after spraying.

Consumption rates of Glyphos

Environmental regulations for use

Substance hazard class - IV. It is practically safe for bees, however, it causes a limitation of their summer from 6 to 12 hours. Plants should be processed at a wind speed of no more than 6 meters per second. For bees, it is necessary to leave the border zone 1-2 km. All beekeepers in the district must be notified of the planned treatment of plants through Glyphos in advance - somewhere in 4-5 days.

As soon as the time of sowing and planting ends, the most difficult days of summer residents come - weeding. Of course, if you have only a couple of beds at your disposal "for the soul" or you grow only fresh herbs "right on the table" - this is not a problem. But the owners of 20-30 acres may even fall into despair - how can you spend the whole summer without unbending? And the so-called cultivators and other new "cunning" devices are far from always effective, which is why more and more farmers are beginning to use a special remedy for weeds recently - as they have been doing all their lives in developed countries. Let's try to figure it out?

What are herbicides and how do they work?

So, herbicides (the term comes from the Latin "grass" and "kill") are special chemicals that are used to destroy vegetation. They are continuous action, when everything is burned out in the end, and selective, when certain types of plants are affected, while others continue to grow. Continuous herbicides are distinguished by the presence of isopropylamine salt. These are the preparations Glysol, Tornado, Hurricane Forte and Roundup. Lazurit and Gezagard received more positive reviews from selective agents.

They are also divided into soil, i.e. pre-emergence, and post-emergence. The ground itself is sprayed first after digging, they kill seedlings and stop seed germination. The second ones are sprayed on the plants themselves - they die, or temporarily stop their growth. Why pause when you can kill right away? The fact is that much less dangerous chemistry goes this way, and the "necessary" plants are given time to grow and get stronger, when the weeds are no longer scary.

Such chemical weeding is essential in areas prone to water erosion. The fact is that on ordinary soils weeds are somehow drowned out by cultivated ones, but on eroded soils they grow much stronger. These are areas on a slope where any mechanical restoration soil always leads to increased erosion processes, plus agrophytocenosis develops.

Is the risk really high?

The emergence of herbicides contributed to an increase in labor productivity and an increase in harvest, while significantly reducing its cost. And many have been using herbicides for ten years and growing wonderful vegetables for their families. After all, this is a common myth - not every "chemistry" turns a crop into a poisonous one. It's all about the technique of use - if everything is done correctly, there will be no danger. Such craftsmen even then hand over their vegetables for examination - to find out the quality of the products obtained. And the results are pleasing to them, while even in the supermarket today you can buy rather low-quality imported vegetables. And all because in Russia, farmers and gardeners practically do not use mineral fertilizers - more time-tested organics. Why are fungicides no longer particularly harmful - after all, they are used only to a limited extent.

In general, to harm the soil, the herbicide should be used only at a very high concentration - unless in order to completely destroy the raspberry thickets. But remember: any chemical agents from weeds are toxic to the environment - they are dangerous to bees and other insects, they can even poison a dog and a cat if they play in the cultivated area.

What tool to choose for the garden?

So, how to deal with weeds in a modern way? To begin with, determine exactly which crops you do not want to weed manually, which preparations are produced for them, and be sure to carefully read the instructions later. So, carrots, beets and potatoes are usually the most troublesome in terms of weed eradication. And a greater effect is achieved if selective herbicides are combined, i.e. designed for a specific type of weed, and continuous herbicides. You can buy the necessary weed control products both in ordinary gardening stores and through the worldwide network from specialized firms. For large areas, of course, the second option is more suitable for you, where the packaging can be larger.

Let's take a look at the most popular herbicides. So, Glyphosate is declared by the manufacturer as a solid preparation that does not possess soil activity. True, it has not been studied for quite a long time. Its trade names are: Tornado, Glyph, Glyphos, Sniper, Hurricane Forte, Roundup, Zero.

Before planting, many who plant almost a field walk well on the ground with Gezagard - with a considerable dose in order to immediately kill the most viable weeds: wheatgrass, quinoa, sow thistle, nettle and wormwood. By the time of germination, only skeletons will remain from the weeds, which then quickly decay. After several hilling potatoes can be treated with a small dose of Gezagard - at the end of June. Only it is not necessary to water with poison everything in a row - but where there are most weeds. After all, the potato tops still suffer, whatever one may say, and it will need to recover for three more days. And when a new wave of weeds has already begun, it will no longer be scary to plantings. It is better to process carrots and beets when they already have 2-3 true leaves.

If you have a large plot, then it is easiest to use a sprayer on a tractor - it has a capacity from 50 liters to a ton. If it is small, then it is easier to put on a backpack with a sprayer, as in soviet times... But the effect of treatment can be negatively affected by unfavorable weather - then spraying with a selective herbicide can be duplicated.

Home Ways to Get Rid of Weeds

Here are the only working recipes for weed control - even safer than conventional herbicides. And all this can be done from the most common improvised means - try it!

Tool # 1 - natural spray

Work order:

• Take two 200 ml cups of white vinegar - it contains the necessary acid to kill weeds.
• Add 2 tablespoons of concentrated lemon juice - it also contains a lot of the necessary acid.
• Add 30 ml of alcohol.
• Pour in 1-2 teaspoons of regular dish soap or laundry detergent. The soap base will attack the outer layer of the plant and will become vulnerable to any attack.
• Dilute the mixture with water - 50 to 90%.
• Pour everything into plastic bottle with attached sprayer.

If the plants are too close to the weeds you want to kill, then set the spray nozzle to “spray”.

And here is how weed control is carried out with ordinary home remedies ...

Remedy # 2 - Salt

If the weeds are located where you are not going to grow anything else (for example, in cracks in the cover), then use salt. Just dissolve 2/3 cup salt in hot water and fill a spray bottle with this. Wet the weeds well with this solution, sprinkle generously with salt and wet again.

Tool # 3 - boiling water

Kill weeds with boiling water - pour out a full pot. Better yet, boiling water after boiling the eggs. As soon as you destroy the weeds, try to immediately cover the area with stones, film or wood chips, because the effect of such a remedy is short-lived.

When should plants be sprayed?

Most often, herbicides are used in the first phase of the growing season of plants - the weeds are easily destroyed, and the vegetables quickly overtake them in growth. But 45 days before harvesting, the processing must be stopped - so that all the chemicals are well decomposed and washed from the plantings. This crop is clean. That is why, if you rarely use herbicides and the area of \u200b\u200byour site is small, you may not even take the vegetables later for analysis.

It is necessary to process pumpkin and zucchini in the following way: as soon as the first sprouts sprout, we loosen the soil around them, clean it and spray it with a directed stream of continuous action - but so that not a drop falls on the “desired” plant. After that, the pumpkin and zucchini will quickly spread their leaves and nothing will grow near them.

How to avoid mistakes?

But what if so many modern summer residents are piously convinced that herbicides are harmful and then remain in hard-to-reach compounds in vegetables, and even in the ground? That phosphoric acid compound is then stored in the soil for up to 50 years? In fact, there is no smoke without fire, and therefore in this risky business, always do everything according to the rules:

• Rule # 1. Take only those funds that have passed government certification. In such herbicides, the norms in the instructions are even underestimated, and therefore it is not dangerous to accidentally exceed them, and the time before harvest is overestimated.

• Rule # 2. Process crops selectively. No weeds - do not cultivate, it is better, where possible, use crop rotation: every three years, transfer the cultivated plantings to a new place, and sow the used area with cereals or leave it under fallow. So herbicides and decomposition products will never accumulate - even traces of chemicals in vegetables will not be found during examination.

Weeds are the longtime enemies of any gardener. And even if there is no vegetable garden on the site, weeds can thoroughly spoil a beautifully mowed lawn, turning it into a sloppy field overgrown with grass. There are a lot of methods and means of weed control today: from traditional folk to “advanced” high-tech ones. You can choose the tool that will suit the maximum.

To make it easier to navigate in the variety of different means and preparations for weeds, in the article we will give detailed review the most effective ones. In addition, we will find out the prices for drugs, and find out by what means it is better to destroy weeds on the lawn and in the garden.

Types of potent weeds removers

So, today, farmers know two main ways to combat weeds:

• agrotechnical methods;
• agrochemicals.

Let's consider in more detail different kinds means that relate to both methods. First, we will talk about the processing of the garden, and we will talk about the lawn separately.

Agrotechnics

Weeding and digging

Traditional methods of weed control that have been used in agriculture for a long time. These are environmentally friendly methods, quite reliable, but requiring a lot of effort and effort.

As a rule, these manipulations, in any case, cannot be dispensed with, therefore weeding the beds and digging it up in any case have to be periodically performed.

You can familiarize yourself with the modern methods of fighting in the garden.

Mulching

Pretty effective waynon-polluting harmful substances... Along with protecting against weeds, mulching helps to retain moisture in the ground, which also has a beneficial effect on plant development.

Mulching can be done both with organic materials (sand, sawdust, grass, peat, etc.) and inorganic (covering fabrics). The principle of operation of mulch is that it blocks the access of light and air for weeds, because of which the weed dies, unable to get out.

Reviews about the Tornado weed extractor can be read.

Of inorganic materials for weed control, black opaque film is most often used. This is the so-called Swedish weed control method. The material allows you to safely and environmentally friendly get rid of weeds (just by preventing them from germinating).

Such a film, although not cheap, however, can be used for several years: it is usually used to protect vegetable and strawberry beds.

Agrochemistry

Herbicides

This is one of the most effective weed control methods today. Herbicides are ideal if the field is heavily overgrown or if you need to cover a large area. These drugs are divided, in turn, into several types: continuous and selective action, systemic, contact and soil type. Let's consider the most popular herbicides used in agriculture today.

Roundup

This is probably the most popular herbicide today. Its safety advantage: Roundup does not harm the soil or livestock. Cultivated plants can be planted immediately after soil treatment with this herbicide.

Roundup is effective against most weeds: they are infested within 8-10 days. For a specified period of time, the weeds die completely, withering. The principle of action of the herbicide is aimed at suppressing the synthesis of amino acids in weeds.

Tornado

This product is most often used to kill weeds in orchards and vineyards. Tornado is effective against both annual weeds and perennials.

This means of continuous action, therefore it is important that cultivated plants do not get in its way.

The product causes weed death 7-10 days after spraying.

You will find instructions for using the Tornado.

Hurricane

This herbicide is effective against annual and perennial weeds. It is good when developing new land plots, when cultivating the soil around greenhouses. Great for killing weeds on the lawn.

Completely destroys weeds 2-3 weeks after spraying. The composition acts on the plant from the inside, gradually bringing it to complete wilting. Hurricane can be used throughout the growing season: from early spring to late autumn.

Glyphos

Another reliable weed killer. Glyphos is safe because it destroys weeds by affecting the synthesis of their amino acids. A positive impact is noted in the destruction of both perennial weeds and annuals.

Saltpeter

A chemical such as ammonium nitrate is highly effective against weeds. It is recommended to use the product only if the weeds are really overgrown. This method is good in that it burns the grown weeds, while settling in the soil itself, and then acting on the cultivated plants already as fertilizer.

In order for the substance to cope with weeds, it is necessary to dilute 3 kg of saltpeter in a bucket of water, and then spray the weeds with the resulting solution.

Methods of struggle with folk remedies are described.

Chemical method it helps when the mechanical is powerless: in the case of a strong overgrowing of the area with weeds, or when no other methods help. Effectively apply herbicides at the same time as fertilizing. But this method can only be used for small areas of the garden / vegetable garden. If, in the process of herbicidal treatment, the substance also fell into empty areas, then the latter can be sown only after a few weeks.

Features of weed control on the lawn - basic methods

If there are many techniques, methods and means for garden weed control, then in order to clear the lawn of "invaders", some of the listed methods will not work. Indeed, in the green grass that grows on the lawn, weeds are sure to be found, which must be destroyed without consequences for the "cultivated" grass.

The fight against weeds growing on the lawn, unlike those growing in the garden, does not stop all summer. If the beds can be sprayed, and then a month or two do not see weeds on them, then the lawn will have to be cleaned regularly: only this approach will help make this part of the garden beautiful and neat.

It is recommended that before planting grass for the lawn, first carry out preventive work to destroy the weeds present in this area. This can be done using traditional digging or a herbicide spray.

It is also important to regularly mow the lawn so that the weeds do not have time to spoil its neat "combed" appearance. Regular haircut will allow you to cope with such particularly stubborn weeds such as woodlice, dandelion, wheatgrass, nettle, bindweed and others. After each mowing, the forces of the weed weaken, and over time, the latter becomes less and less.

In addition, it is necessary to provide the lawn with sufficient fertilization with appropriate fertilizers, which, together with nutrition, can protect it from fungal diseases and various viruses. If the lawn is attacked by moss, soil aeration will help. Simply put: it is necessary to let air under the sod by piercing the lawn with a pitchfork in several places.

If herbicides are used to eliminate weeds on the lawn, then choose a product very carefully. Keep in mind that there are several types of grass that can be affected by herbicides in the lawn cover: after treatment, these herbs can disappear completely.

Planting and caring for Rarebone is described.

If you process lawn grass means of continuous defeat, then the next haircut can be done only four days after the procedure. In general, it is allowed to treat the lawn with herbicides no earlier than a year after its arrangement.

To protect the green lawn from weed infestation, so-called lawn sand is often used. This substance is at the same time a fertilizer, as it contains ammonium sulfate and ferrous sulfate. The product is scattered over the surface of the lawn, after which moss and pests gradually disappear on the latter. Iron sulfate in this case acts as a poison for weeds, while ammonium sulfate feeds cultivated plant specimens. It is most effective to use lawn sand at the beginning of the season: May-June.

After mowing grass that has been treated with lawn sand, it cannot be used for mulching garden crops.

The best chemical agents for weed control in the garden in the country

We will find out at what price we can now purchase weed control products.

Lazurite chemical against weed growth - the principle of action of the drug, how to apply the solution

We can purchase this popular herbicide for potato and tomato fields from the August company at a price of 2,000 rubles for a 5-liter canister.

How to spray a tornado destroyer

it effective remedy with excellent penetrating power from the same company can be bought at a price of 100 rubles for a half-liter container.

Roundup poison to remove weeds on the site

The consumption of funds is extremely economical, so such a small volume will be enough for a decent-sized field.

A popular and reliable herbicide is sold at a price of 370 rubles for a container of 0.14 kg.

Toxic chemical Glyphos

This effective and safe product can be purchased for about 700 rubles for a half-liter pack. The consumption of the drug is extremely economical, so one package is usually enough for a standard country cottage area, the remedy still remains.

Among the most popular weeds are sow thistle. It has a fairly strong root system and a spiny stem. Therefore, it is very difficult to pull it out of the ground with your hands, weeding in the fight against it helps badly. If you vomit the sow thistle, and at least a small part of the root remains in the ground, all efforts are in vain, because very quickly it will grow again.

The second most popular weed is woodlice. It mainly appears on an area that is mainly in the shade and has soil with high acidity. If, during weeding, you leave a piece of the root system, you have lost the battle with it - very soon it will appear in this place again.

The next plant is runny. Its root system grows very large, it becomes entrenched in the ground at a depth of 40 centimeters. Therefore, manual weeding is out of the question, because it is almost impossible to pull out the weed along with the root. To get all the roots of this plant out of the ground, you will have to dig up the entire area completely.

The most famous weed killers - arm yourself with proven ones!

Using these preparations for weed control, you need to cover the beds and holes with vegetables and shrubs with a film. After spraying chemicals, it is not recommended to enter the site for 3-4 days. And harmful plants die after 2 weeks, when the root system is saturated with sprayed poisons.

If you are afraid chemical substances, you can use home remedies against weeds. The most famous among them the enemy of pests is vinegar.... The technology of application is simple: we pour undiluted vinegar into a container with a spray bottle and treat all the weeds on the site with it. Do not forget about respiratory and eye protection.

There is an alternative - ways to control weeds without chemicals

Weed control products are effective, but not the only control method. Mulching is one of the non-chemical and nonetheless very useful ways... It consists in the fact that the soil is covered with sawdust, tree bark or agroperlite (). The pests will simply wither and suffocate under the mulch. An additional effect of this method is the preservation of moisture in the soil.
