PLANTS CONTROLLED
Herbaceous Plants
* Partial control; use higher rates for soil textures indicated above
.
Woody Plants
*Partial control; use the higher rates for the soil textures
indicated above.
Within several weeks after VELPAR L activation by rainfall,
affected vegetation may be burned, if desired. This burn may
further enhance control of vegetation. Burn the vegetation
only after any residual stand is completely defoliated, at least
twice, allowing for sufficient root uptake of VELPAR L. In
the West, results may take one to two years in areas of low
rainfall.
SPRAY EQUIPMENT
VELPAR L may be applied by ground equipment or by air
(helicopter only).
MIXING INSTRUCTIONS
For ground application, use enough water for thorough
coverage, usually a minimum of 25 gal per acre. For aerial
applications, use at least 5 gal of water per acre and at least 5
gal of water for every 1 gal of VELPAR L.
SITE PREPARATION - TANK MIXTURES
VELPAR L PLUS “TORDON101 MIXTURE”
1
For improved, broad-spectrum brush control, tank mix VELPAR
L with TORDON 101 MIXTURE. Consult the VELPAR L
Eastern US site preparation section and TORDON 101
MIXTURE labels for a listing of crop tree species where this
combination can be used.
APPLICATION TIMING
Apply VELPAR L plus TORDON 101 MIXTURE from late
spring to early summer after the trees have reached full leaf, but
before leaf tissue hardens. In the states of Maine, Michigan,
Minnesota, New Hampshire, New York, Vermont, and
Wisconsin, apply this tank mixture after bud break.

MIXTURE.
SPRAY EQUIPMENT
VELPAR L plus TORDON 101 MIXTURE may be applied by
ground equipment or by air (helicopter only).
MIXING INSTRUCTIONS
For ground application, use enough water for thorough
coverage, usually a minimum of 25 gal per acre. For aerial
applications, use at least 5 gal of water per acre. Use at least 5
gal of water for every 1 gal of VELPAR L. For best results, full
foliar coverage is required.
IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS
- VELPAR L + TORDON 101 MIXTURE
• To avoid injury, do not plant pine before the following
intervals following application of Tordon 101 Mixture:
–Southern states - 6 months
–Lake states - 9 months
–Northeastern states - 9 months
• Burning treated sites after initial contact (browning) effect on
foliage may result in poor control. Burn the vegetation only
after brush has completely defoliated at least once, allowing
sufficient root uptake of VELPAR L (usually 60-90 days after
adequate rainfall).
• Before using Tordon 101 Mixture, read and carefully observe
the cautionary statements and all other information appearing
on the product label. Tordon 101 Mixture is a restricted use
pesticide, for retail sale to and use only by certified
applicators or persons under their direct supervision and only
for those uses covered by certified applicator’s certification.
