GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS QUINSTAR 200 SC HERBICIDE will provide post-emergence control of summer grass and white clover in turf. Quinclorac is rapidly absorbed through the foliage and translocated throughout the plant. Death of sensitive weeds usually occurs between 1 and 2 weeks after treatment. Kikuyu grass can be suppressed by applying two post-emergence treatments. Best results will be achieved if kikuyu grass is treated in Autumn.

MIXING To ensure even mixing, half fill the spray tank with clean water and add the required amount of product. Agitate thoroughly, then add the remainder of the water. Agitate again before spraying commences. The addition of a crop oil adjuvant (preferably a methylated seed oil) may improve weed control in unfavourable weather conditions. Note: Add the required quantity of QUINSTAR 200 SC directly to the tank water, DO NOT mix with water through a filter basket. DO NOT make a slurry or paste prior to adding to the tank. Maintain agitation at all times - from mixing to spraying (including spraying times).

APPLICATION Apply QUINSTAR 200 SC to actively growing weeds at the growth stage indicated in the Directions for Use table. Apply the product in 400 L of water per hectare. DO NOT apply through any type of irrigation system. Avoid overlaps during application. Separate applications should be made if all target weeds are not at the correct growth stage for treatment at the same time. It is recommended not to mow 2 days before or after applying QUINSTAR 200 SC to maximize weed control and minimize turf injury. Refer to the Restraints listed above in the Directions for Use table for further application advice.

COMPATIBILITY QUINSTAR 200 SC is compatible with DSMA and trinexapac-ethyl.

Resistance Warning QUINSTAR 200 SC HERBICIDE is a member of the Carboxylic acid group of herbicides and has the Disruptors of Plant Cell Growth mode of action. For weed resistance management this product is a Group I Herbicide. Some naturally occurring weed biotypes resistant to QUINSTAR 200 SC and other disruptors of plant cell growth herbicides may exist through normal genetic variability in any weed population. The resistant individuals can eventually dominate the weed population if these herbicides are used repeatedly. The resistant weeds will not be controlled by QUINSTAR 200 SC or other Group I herbicides. Since the occurrence of resistant weeds is difficult to detect prior to use, Adama Australia accepts no liability for any losses that may result from the failure of QUINSTAR 200 SC to control resistant weeds.

PROTECTION OF CROPS, NATIVE AND OTHER NON-TARGET PLANTS DO NOT apply under weather conditions, or from spraying equipment, that may cause spray to drift onto nearby susceptible plants/crops, cropping lands, pastures or native vegetation. Quinclorac has properties and characteristics associated with chemicals detected in groundwater. The use of this product where soils are permeable, particularly where the water table is shallow, may result in groundwater contamination. DO NOT apply to Bahia grass (Paspalum notatum), Centipedegrass (Eremochloa ophiuroides), Buffalo grass (Stenotaphrum secundatum), Kikuyu grass (Pennisetum clandestinum), Queensland Blue Couch (Digitaria didactyla), Carpetgrass (Axonopus spp.), or lawns or turf where desirable clovers are present. DO NOT apply to ornamental beds or to exposed feeder roots of trees and ornamentals. Be particularly careful within the drip line of these plants. DO NOT apply to golf course collars or greens. Clippings from the first three mowings should be left on the treated area.

PROTECTION OF WILDLIFE, FISH, CRUSTACEANS AND ENVIRONMENT DO NOT contaminate streams, rivers or waterways with the chemical or used containers.

STORAGE AND DISPOSAL Store in the closed, original container in a cool, well-ventilated area. Do not store for prolonged periods in direct sunlight. Triple-rinse containers before disposal. Add rinsings to spray tank. Do not dispose of undiluted chemicals on site. If recycling, replace cap and return clean containers to recycler or designated collection point. If not recycling, break, crush, or puncture and deliver empty packaging to an approved waste management facility. If an approved waste management facility is not available, bury the empty packaging 500 mm below the surface in a disposal pit specifically marked and set up for this purpose, clear of waterways, desirable vegetation and tree roots, in compliance with relevant local, state or territory government regulations. Do not burn empty containers or product. Returnable/Refillable containers: Empty contents fully into application equipment. Close all valves and return to point of supply for refill or storage.
