HYDROTHOL 191 Granular with alkylamine endothall is a selective, rapid-acting, contact herbicide and algaecide. Very effective against a broad spectrum of submersed weeds, also controls Problem Algae at the same time. Hydrothol 191 has been successfully used for over 20 years. For use in lakes, ponds, irrigation canals, and drainage ditches. Works rapidly enough to be effective in both still and slow moving water. May be harmful to fish at recommended application rates.

The physical form, mode of action, and general usage of HYDROTHOL 191 Granular are similar to Aquathol Super K. Where fish are present application of HYDROTHOL 191 Granular at rates over 1.0 ppm should be used only for spot treatments, narrow margins, or where some fish kill is acceptable. Do not treat more than 10% of a lake or pond at one time at application rates above 1.0 ppm. When treating lakes or ponds with HYDROTHOL 191 Granular begin at the shoreline and work toward the center. Apply parallel to the shoreline. This will herd fish away from the treated area into deeper untreated portions of the lake or pond.

As little as 0.2 ppm of HYDROTHOL 191 Granular will control algae when an entire pond is treated. For longer term control or spot treatments use 0.5 to 1.5 ppm. Repeat treatment when growth reappears. For floating mats scatter uniformly over the surface of the mat. Weeds growing in lakes or ponds will require application of 0.5 to 2.5 ppm of HYDROTHOL 191 Granular .

To determine lbs. of material to use for lakes or ponds multiply the application rate in ppm by 5. This will give the number of lbs. to use on 1,000 sq. ft. at an average depth of 4 ft. Adjust quantity of material up or down depending on average depth.

Heavily infested irrigation canals or drainage ditches will require 3.0 to 5.0 ppm of HYDROTHOL 191 Granular.

Water treated with HYDROTHOL 191 Granular should not be used for irrigation or human and animal consumption for 7 to 25 days depending on the application rate.

To determine lbs. of material to use for irrigation canals or drainage ditches use 1.25 lbs. per 1,000 lin. ft., per sq. ft. of cross section, per ppm. For a 2,000 ft. canal, with a cross section of 15 sq. ft., at 3 ppm use:

1.25 X 2.0 X 15 X 3 = 112.5 lbs.

    Amount of Hydrothol required : 40 Lbs for Submerged weeds

*Consult Label for Exact Doses, Additional Restrictions & Important Application Directions. Rates vary depending upon depth and plant types. Dose requirements are less for whole waterbody treatments like a pond.

In Wisconsin and other states, chemical use permits are required for all herbicide/algaecide applications or you must have in place a current Type I or Type II fish farm license. Check with your local and/or state regulatory group for specific requirements. In order to apply chemicals in liquid form within Wisconsin, the applicator must be licensed with the State. Wisconsin pond owners - contact the Department of Agriculture at 608-224-4887 for a fish farm license.
