Use Prizefighter with Other Herbicides
Prizefighter can be used alone or as a tank mix additive. As with any mixing of products, please follow all labeled instructions and precautions. Avoid mixing with labels that say to not mix with this product or its ingredients. Tank mixing or bucket chemistry has been around a long time. It is used less so now because of the variety and effectiveness of products that are available, but it is still a common practice for agriculture professionals and landscapers alike. Where one product leaves off, another jumps in. Taking care of weeds in a difficult field often requires the use of more than one product. Mixing products can be dangerous and can also have adverse rather than beneficial results. It is important to only mix products you know are safe to use together and make sure have similar application requirements.
How Vivid Life Sciences Prizefighter Works
To use, mix Vivid Life Sciences Prizefighter herbicide concentrate with water. One-gallon of concentrate yields on average about 10 gallons of ready to use product. Prizefighter kills weeds by breaking down cell walls and destroying the weed from the inside out. The active ingredient in Prizefighter is ammonium nonanoate. This ingredient is approved for use on both food crops and non-crop fields. According to the EPA, ammonium nonanoate has a half life of less than one day which means it has no residual effects. This also means for the product to be most effective, repeated applications are often necessary. Prizefighter is so effective that it is often used for burndowns and seed preparation for fields. Care should be taken to not use Prizefighter after wanted crops have emerged or to get the product on any desired growth because anything Prizefighter touches gets knocked out.
