Applications & Uses

- Applications
- Applicable Crop
- Mode Of Action
Casoron 4G works by inhibiting cellulose synthesis. Optimal performance is obtained as a preventative application. Casoron 4G requires 1/2 to 1 inch of overhead watering to thoroughly incorporate granules to a depth of 4-6 inches in the soil. Casoron 4G prevents weed seeds, emerging shoots and certain existing weeds from growing through cell division. Casoron 4G develops a vapor barrier and is active for 9-10 months after application
- Use Sites
Casoron 4G can be used around established woody landscape ornamentals, non-crop areas, fruit and nut trees and respective nurseries. Casoron 4G is not recommended for use in containerized ornamentals; however, use under pots on bare ground blocks/beds, rock covered ground blocks/beds etc. typically found in nursery production areas, is appropriate.
Casoron 4G can also be used under asphalt for general weed control in roadways and parking lots or recreational areas.
- Application Rates
Casoron is applied as a broadcast soil application. Woody Ornamentals, Shelterbelts (established and in nurseries) Apply 100 to 150 pounds per acre. Thoroughly incorporate granules into the surface through watering-in. VERY IMPORTANT: See label for specific crop use instructions and limitations.
APPLICATION AND RATES
Under Asphalt Areas.
Apply 250 to 300 pounds per acre. Thoroughly incorporate granules into the surface through watering-in. Treated area should be covered with asphalt as soon as possible. See label for specific weed control instructions and limitations.
- Directions For Use

- Agricultural Use Requirements
Use this product only in accordance with its labeling and with the Worker Protection Standard, 40 CFR 170. This Standard contains requirements for the protection of agricultural workers on farms, forests, nurseries, and greenhouses, and handlers of agricultural pesticides. It contains requirements for training, decontamination, notification, and emergency assistance. It also contains specific instructions and exceptions pertaining to the statements on this label about personal protective equipment (PPE), and restricted-entry interval. The requirements in this box only apply to uses of this product that are covered by the Worker Protection Standard. Do not enter or allow worker entry into treated areas during the restricted entry interval (REI) of 12 hours. Exception: if the product is soil-injected or soil-incorporated, the Worker Protection Standard, under certain circumstances, allows workers to enter the treated area if there will be no contact with anything that has been treated. PPE required for early entry to treated areas that is permitted under the Worker Protection Standard and that involves contact with anything that has been treated, such as plants, soil, or water, is
- Coveralls
- Chemical-resistant gloves made of any waterproof material such as butyl rubber > 14 mils, natural rubber > 14 mils, neoprene rubber > 14 mils, or nitrile rubber > 14 mils
- Shoes plus socks.
For use on ground (soil or gravel) in liners in which ornamental stock will be placed: Thoroughly incorporate the granules into the soil (or other target surface) through watering-in. Once the application has been correctly incorporated through watering-in and the treated surface is dry, the WPS permits workers to enter the treated area during the restricted-entry interval without personal protective equipment or any other restriction if they are performing tasks that do not involve contact with the soil subsurface.
- Non-Agricultural Use Requirements
The requirements in this box apply to uses of this product that are NOT within the scope of the Worker Protection Standard for agricultural pesticides (40 CFR Part 170).
