Controlling weeds is one of the most difficult parts of maintaining ornamental plants and landscaping. Snapshot 2.5TG eliminates the need for shovel applications or tallying of square footage, as it comes with an easy-to-use, granular, pre-emergent solution that inhibits the growth of unsightly weeds. It's specially formulated for control of a variety of insects, and is also great for use on ornamental beds, shrubs, and both landscape and nursery ornamentals.

Key Features

Snapshot 2.5TG is packed with powerful features that make it a go-to solution for commercial landscapers and growers. Here’s what sets it apart:

Pre-emergence Weed Control:

• Granular Formula: Snapshot 2.5TG's granular nature allows for easy application and even distribution across large areas. This formulation provides pre-emergence control, preventing weed seeds from germinating and taking root.
• Broad-Spectrum Coverage: Snapshot 2.5TG is a selective pre-emergence herbicide with more than 111 broadleaf and grassy weeds on its label, including tough weeds such as crabgrass, chickweed, clover, and spurge.

Dual Active Ingredients:

• Isoxaben (2.5%): The active ingredient isoxaben is mostly a growth inhibitor for broadleafed weeds by stopping them from growing and establishing by disrupting the development of the critical enzymes within weed seedlings.
• Trifluralin (2.5%): A proven herbicide for controlling annual grasses, trifluralin disrupts cell division in weed seeds, preventing germination and early growth.

Wide Applicability:

• Ornamental Safe: Snapshot 2.5TG can be used on 413 field-grown and 235 container-grown ornamentals, all with no fear of plant damage. This makes it perfect for use in the nursery trade and for commercial landscape use where ornamental plantings are under heavy attack.
• Long-Lasting Protection: Snapshot 2.5TG provides season-long control with just one application, making it a cost-effective option for controlling weeds over an extended period.

Usage Recommendations

Proper timing and application are key to the best results. Here’s how to get the most out of Snapshot 2.5TG:

Application Timing:

• Pre-Emergence: For optimal control, apply Snapshot 2.5TG before weed seeds germinate. Best results are obtained early in the season before weeds have appeared.
• Reapplication: For extended duration of control, reapply product mid-season, particularly to heavy-weed pressure areas and/or in extended growing seasons.

How to Apply:

1. Calibrate Spreader: Ensure the spreader is calibrated correctly to apply the appropriate amount of herbicide evenly.
2. Apply to Soil Surface: Spread the granules evenly over the soil surface where control is desired. Cover the entire area to ensure uniform weed suppression.
3. Water Activation: After application, water the treated area lightly to activate the herbicide. This helps move the herbicide into the soil, where it can inhibit weed germination.

Recommended Rate:

• On target weeds and site conditions, apply Snapshot 2.5TG from 2.3 to 4.6 lbs per 1,000 square feet. See label for specific use rates based on target weeds.

Weeds Controlled:

• Snapshot 2.5TG kills annual grasses and broadleaf weeds, such as crabgrass, chickweed, clover, dandelion, purslane, spurge, and many others.
