Herbicides
Weeds suppressed
Canada thistle**
cleavers (1 - 3 whorls)
round leaved mallow (1 - 6 leaf)
scentless chamomile
sow thistle**
stork’s bill (2 - 6 leaf)
toadflax (< 15 cm tall)
*
Including CLEARFIELD canola
**
Apply when the majority of thistles have emerged and are actively growing. For best top growth control, apply before bud stage when thistles are no
larger than 15 cm in height and before crop canopy prevents thorough coverage of weeds.
***
Note. A recent weed survey in Alberta shows 90% of fields have kochia resistant to Group 2 herbicides. Without testing, assume kochia in your fields
are resistant and another broadleaf herbicide from another herbicide group will be needed to control kochia.

Ground: 22 L/acre (minimum).
Mixing Instructions
Use mixing instructions “b” on page 13.
Application Tips
Higher spray volumes are required for dense crop canopy and/or large weeds. Weeds should be less than 10 cm tall or
across at application. Effectiveness of Refine SG may be reduced if it remains in the tank for more than 24 hours.
How it Works
Absorbed through foliage. Refine SG inhibits cell elongation. MCPA ester is a systemic herbicide absorbed by leaf
and stem and translocated to actively growing regions. It disrupts cell division causing abnormal growth.
Expected Results
Weeds: Growth stops immediately. Discolouration of dying weeds may not be noticeable for 1 - 3 weeks after
application depending on growing conditions and weed species. Poor results may be expected if there is improper
mixing, timing, coverage or when weeds are under drought stress.
