Description
Why Choose Ranger Pro?
Professionals trust Ranger Pro for its ability to control various unwanted plant species. Adding a surfactant ensures that the herbicide adheres better to plant surfaces, increasing its absorption and overall efficacy.
Ranger Pro's systemic action means that it is absorbed by the leaves and transported throughout the plant, reaching the root system and providing complete control.
Key Benefits:
- Broad-spectrum control: Effective against annual and perennial weeds, woody brush, and trees.
- Systemic herbicide: Absorbed through the foliage and transported throughout the plant, reaching the roots.
- No residual soil activity: Allows for replanting and flexibility in agricultural and landscaping practices.
- Surfactant included: Improves absorption, making it more effective, even on tough-to-control plants.
- 41% Glyphosate: A high-concentration formula for robust and consistent weed control.
How Ranger Pro Works
Ranger Pro is a post-emergent herbicide, which means it should be applied to weeds and plants that are actively growing. Once applied, the Glyphosate is absorbed through the leaves and moves systematically throughout the plant, attacking the roots and other vital areas. This ensures the plant is killed, not just at the surface level.
Systemic Action:
- Absorbed by the plant's leaves and transported throughout the entire plant, including the root system.
- Works on broadleaf weeds and grasses, completely controlling most unwanted vegetation.
- It begins to show effects within a few days of application, with complete control achieved within 1-2 weeks.
Application Guidelines
Ranger Pro can be applied using standard spraying equipment such as handheld, backpack, or large-scale commercial sprayers. It is most effective when applied during warm, dry weather when plants are actively growing. Avoid applying immediately before rainfall, as this can reduce the effectiveness of the herbicide.
Recommended Application Tips:
- Mixing Ratio: Follow label instructions for the appropriate dilution rate. Mix 2-3 ounces of Ranger Pro per gallon of water for general use, but always consult the product label for specific rates based on the target species.
- Timing: Apply when weeds are actively growing, typically in the spring or early summer. Multiple applications may be necessary for perennial weeds.
- Avoid drift: Avoid drift onto desirable plants, as Ranger Pro will affect any plant it comes into contact with.
Effective Against:
Ranger Pro is highly effective at controlling a wide range of vegetation types, including:
- Annual and perennial weeds, such as crabgrass, dandelions, and pigweed.
- Woody brush: Including species like poison ivy, kudzu, and wild blackberry.
- Trees and tough perennials: Use for selective removal of saplings or invasive tree species.
No Residual Soil Activity
One of Ranger Pro's key advantages is that it has no residual soil activity, which means it will not affect seeds or plants that are sown or planted after application. This makes it a great choice for use in landscaping and agricultural settings where flexibility is needed for planting schedules.
Benefits of No Residual Activity:
- Allows for replanting shortly after application.
- It prevents the herbicide from lingering in the soil and affecting future crops or desirable plants.
- It is ideal for areas where you need to clear vegetation quickly and replant, such as preparing fields, lawns, or garden beds.
Safety and Environmental Considerations
As with all herbicides, Ranger Pro should be used with care to ensure safety and minimize environmental impact. Always follow the instructions on the product label regarding personal protective equipment (PPE) and application guidelines.
Safety Tips:
- Wear protective gear: Use gloves, long sleeves, and protective eyewear during application.
- Avoid drift: Be mindful of wind conditions to prevent drift onto desirable plants or nearby areas.
- Proper storage: Store in a cool, dry place out of reach of children and pets.
