<br />Sectagon 42 is a water-soluble liquid. When applied to properly prepared soil, the liquid
<br />is converted into a gaseous fumigant. After a sufficient waitingpperiod, the gas dissipates,
<br />leaving the soil ready for planting, Sectagon 42 is regommended for the suppression of
<br />weeds, plant parasitic nematodes, and soilborne fungi that cause reductions in the yield and
<br />quality of ornamental, food and fiber crops.
<br />Sectagon 42 will suppress only those pests in the fumigation zone at the. time of treatment
<br />Recontamination may occur subsequent to the fumigant's dissipation from the soil.
<br />Weeds and germinating weed seeds thatare suppressed include Annual bluegrass, Bermuda
<br />grass, Chickweed, Dandelion, Ragweed, Henbit, Lambsquarter, Amaranthus. sp, (Pigweed,
<br />Careless weed), Watergrass, Johnsongrass, Nutgrass, Wild momingglory, Purslane,
<br />Barnyardgrass, Crabgrass, Groundsel, Prickly lettuce, Pineappleweed, Nettieaf, Goosefoot,
<br />Nightshade, Shepherdspurse, Stinging nettle, Melva, London rocket, and Fiddleneck. The
<br />best weed suppression is obtained when Sectagon 42 is applled to weeds that are actively
<br />growing,

<br />The soll-bome plant pathogenic -fungi suppressed include species of Verticillium, Rhizactonia,
<br />Pythium; Phytophthora, Sclerotinia.
<br />The plant parasitic nematodes which Sectagon 42 suppressed include Root knot, Lesion,
<br />Dagger, Lance, Needle, Pin, Reniform, Stunt, Stubby root, Sting and Spiral.
<br />Note: Sectagon 42 will only suppress nematodes that are. in thefumigated zone at the time
<br />of treatment. The fumigated zone is defined as the depth of penetration that Sectagon 42
<br />achieves atthe time of application. In Oregon.and Washington, Sectagon 42 will only suppress
<br />Miloidogyne Chitwoodi. Other pests suppressed include symphillds or garden centipedes.
<br />USE PRECAUTIONS
<br />Keep off desirable lawns and plants.
<br />USE RESTRICTIONS
<br />Do not apply within 3 feet of the drip line of desirable plants, shrubs or trees. Do not use in
<br />confined areas without adequate ventilation OR where fumes may enter nearby dwellings.
<br />Do not use in greenhouses. Keep container tightly closed when not In use, Oo not store near
<br />feed or food.
<br />TREATMENT GUIDELINES
<br />For optimum results from soil fumigation with Sectagon 42 certain procedures should
<br />be observed at designated times In the treatment program. Described in this: section are
<br />important guldelines.for each of the four stages of the treatment process:
<br />Planning a Sectagon 42 Application
<br />Preparing a Fleldfor Application
<br />Applying Sectagon 42
<br />Preparing for Planting after Application ofSectagon 42
<br />Your sales representative will help you select the besttreatment program for your particular
<br />needs.
<br />PLANNING A SECTAGON 42 APPLICATION
<br />Time. of Application
<br />Apply Sectagon 42 after harvest and 14 to 21 days before a new crop is planted. in some
<br />areas of North America, fall applications are preferred because the fumes dissipate over the
<br />winter, allowing planting to begin as soon as favorable springtime conditions arrive.
<br />Application Hate
<br />Apply 37:5 to 75 gallons of Sectagon 42 per treated acre depending on crop, target pest, and.
<br />soil properties. Sall properties to consider when: determining the,appiication rate include the
<br />depth. of soil to be treated, soil texture and percent organic matter.
<br />Application in Tank Mix with Liquid Fertilizer
<br />Sectagon 42 may be injected In a mixture with liquid fertilizers. Since the composition of liquid
<br />fertilizers vary considerably, the physical compatibility of each fertilizer/Sectagon 42tank mix
<br />should be checked by using the following procedure:
<br />Mix a small quantity of Sectagon 42 and liquid fertilizer in a glass container. Sectagon 42 and
<br />fertilizer should be mixed In the same ratio as they will be applied to the field (Le., if 40 gallons
<br />of Sectagon 42 and 49gallons of liquid fertilizerare to be applied per acre; then Sectagon
<br />42 and fertilizer should be mixed in the jar in a.40:40 or 1:1 ratio). Agitate the liqulds to attain
<br />a.complete mixture:
<br />If a uniform mix cannot be made, the mixture should not he used. If the mixture remains
<br />uniform for30 minutes, the combination may be used. Should the mixture separate after 30
<br />minutes, but readily remixes uniformly with agitation, the mixture can be used if adequate
<br />agitation is maintained in the tank,
<br />DO NOT PLACE CAPS ON JAR, AS INCOMPATIBLE MIXES MAY EVOLVE HYDROGEN
<br />SULFIDE GAS.
<br />USE PROMPTLY AFTER MIXING WITH WATER OR FERTILIZER. DO NOT ALLOW SOLUTION
<br />TO STAND.
<br />Flush all equipment with water after each day's use. Disassemble valves and clean carefully.
<br />All rinsate should be properly applied to the field.
<br />Target Pest and Depth of Treatment
<br />For suppression of weeds and fungi causing seed or seedling diseases, treatment of only
<br />the top'1 to 4 inches of, soil may be required (see application specific requirements in the
<br />.Good Agricultural Practices section of thisiabel). For suppression of nematodes and fungi
<br />which occur throughout the rhizosphere, treatment to depths of greater than 4 inches may be
<br />required. For a given soil type, the required application rate within the specified rate range
<br />will Increase proportionately up to the specified maximum rate with the depth of treatment
<br />required.
<br />For example, if 25'gallons of Sectagon 42 per acre is required to treat 4 inches, then 50
<br />gallons of Sectagon 42 will be required to treat to a depth of B inches. Choose the appropriate
