What happens to the aquatic weeds after a treatment?
Submersed aquatic weeds do not have a waxy cuticle or skin like a terrestrial weed or crop. MAGNACIDE H Herbicide reacts with specific proteins in the aquatic weed cell membranes that are exposed due to this lack of a waxy cuticle. Once this reaction occurs, the cells of the plant rupture. Weeds become discolored and flaccid. As they lay down on the bottom of the canal, canal capacity increases, generally in 24 hours. The weeds disintegrate over the next several days.
