With the beginning of the gardening season, every summer resident again faces the problem of removing weeds from their beds and throughout the entire plot. It is not always easy to put the planting in order, because not only annual weeds grown from seeds, but also perennials with a powerful root system can grow on the site. The process of weed control is quite painful, you have to spend a long time in an inclined position, in the evening your back is taken away, your legs hurt.
Is it possible to somehow simplify the process of fighting? Of course, some gardeners and gardeners use different choppers, flat cutters. But the grass continues to grow again. The attitude towards herbicides is ambiguous, especially since it is undesirable to use them on plantations. Today, there are drugs that do not harm garden and garden plantings, if weeds are treated with them, following the instructions. One of the popular and safe remedies is Tornado from weeds. We will try to convince skeptics and prove that the product is safe and destroys weeds where the owners of the plots need.
Description
You and I are used to destroying weeds manually, spending a lot of time on work. All this looks like in the photo.
But it is possible to facilitate agricultural work several times, leaving time for outdoor activities, if you use modern safe means. Look at the photos of how the site looked before the Tornado treatment, and what happened after it. Beautiful, isn’t it?
Tornado is a ready-to-use solution containing glyphosate isopropylamine salt. This tool was developed by scientists to kill weeds. Release form – bottles of different volumes – 100, 500, 1000 ml, which creates additional convenience for site owners. You can choose any amount of the drug.
Tornado weed killer is harmless to all organisms. But since this is a product of chemical production, you need to know what properties it has:
- Tornado is called a systemic herbicide. Penetrates through the leaves, and then with the juice throughout the plant. Having treated the site with a preparation, you can be sure of one hundred percent death of weeds.
- Since Tornado Weed Poison has no selective properties, it is able to destroy all plants, including cultivated ones, if it gets on their leaves. That is why it can be applied before the start of sowing or directly during sowing.
- Simultaneously with sowing, it is possible to treat the soil from weeds with the Tornado preparation, if the seeds are “long-playing”, that is, seedlings appear no earlier than in a week.
- Plant roots are not able to absorb this drug, so plants need to be treated when they have a green mass. Thus, the poison does not get into the fruits and root crops, and does not affect the quality of the crop.
- With the weed killer Tornado, no changes occur with the soil: it does not accumulate. Once in the soil, the isopropylamine salt of glyphosate, after bonding with metal atoms, decomposes without penetrating deep.
Feature of application
We have already noted that the Tornado preparation from weeds does not bring harm to plants and humans. But this is only if the working solution is properly prepared, the instructions are followed.
The question of how to breed Tornado to kill weeds on the site, how to use it, worries not only beginner gardeners and gardeners, but also those whose experience has been calculated for decades.
Let’s take a look at the instructions in detail:
- The drug in bottles is the mother solution from which the agent for treating the area is prepared. Once the solution is prepared, use it immediately. The diluted liquid cannot be stored.
- For breeding, you need to use soft water, adding a little ammonium sulfate. So that the solution does not immediately stack from the treated plants, you need to add a Macho adhesion agent. It will help the poison to stay on the plants.
Solution dilution for different applications
Since the Tornado preparation is used in different places on the site, it is diluted as follows:
- In the garden and vineyard, when processing aisles, 10 to 25 ml of Tornado is added per liter of water.
- Before planting, weeds are sprayed with a solution of 15-25 ml per liter jar of water.
- The roadsides of the site, as well as along the paths where cultivated plants will not be planted, prepare a more concentrated solution: from 20 to 25 ml / l.
- If you need to destroy large perennial weeds that have grown to the size of shrubs, then add up to 40 ml of Tornado to a liter jar of water.
When and how to spray weeds
The destruction of weeds on the site is carried out in dry calm weather or early in the morning when the dew dries or after 4 pm.
As a rule, weeds are destroyed with Tornado once a season: before planting or after the crop is harvested.
If you need to prepare the lawn for sowing perennial grass, weed control should be done 14 days before sowing.
If you need to destroy the weeds in the plantings, they are covered with a film. Look at the photo, how the gardener works, so as not to accidentally spray the pepper with poison.
In areas not occupied by cultivated plants, Tornado can be sprayed from weeds all the way. Maintain a distance of at least 3 cm when working.
Safety Precautions
Since the Tornado for weeding is a toxic substance and belongs to the 3rd hazard class, working with it requires care. It is safe for humans, animals and insects, but you can not pour the product into water bodies.
Это важно!
- Work is carried out in personal protective equipment.
- Smoking, eating or drinking while working is prohibited.
- If the solution gets into the eyes or on the skin, rinse thoroughly with water and seek medical advice.
- If the drug has entered the stomach, induce vomiting by drinking water with absorbents before the procedure. Do not take any more measures on your own, but you need to call an ambulance.
- After completing the work, it is necessary to send the clothes to the laundry, wash well with soap and warm water.
- Tornado bottle must be burned. Pour the rest of the solution onto the cultivated land.
Conclusion
We talked about how to use the Tornado weed killer. But gardeners, judging by the reviews, are interested in how long weeds will not grow on the site. As a rule, such processing does not allow you to get rid of weeds forever. After all, most of them reproduce by seeds, they can always be carried by the wind from a neighboring garden.
But if you used the Tornado tool, then this year weeding the garden will be significantly reduced.
