How far will each application travel in a canal?
One of the big advantages to using MAGNACIDE H Herbicide is the long distances an application can travel. Many environmental factors will affect application distances such as organic content in the water, pH, abundance and species of weed to name a few. Velocity is a key factor in getting the longest distance. The higher the velocity the more distance. A good rule of thumb is: in a good flowing canal with a velocity greater than 0.5 miles per hour and aquatic weeds 24 inches or less in length, one can expect control for 8 -12 miles.
