Are there certain weather conditions that are better for herbicide application than others?
Contact herbicide applications can be affected by rain. Generally with these types of treatments, we use surfactants or herbicides which can be applied within a few hours or in some cases minutes before a rainfall. Conversely, some herbicides are applied to be absorbed by the roots of a plant and rain is needed to move the chemical to the root zone.
