Pearl™ is a soluble concentrate formulation containing 150 g/l (13.52% w/w) glufosinate-ammonium. It is a fast acting desiccant herbicide used for controlling many grasses & broadleaved weeds, including troublesome weeds such as Horse-tail. Pearl™ can be used around the following areas; Fence lines, Natural surfaces not intended to bear vegetation, Permeable surfaces overlaying soils, Hard surfaces & Managed amenity turf for line-marking preparation.
Although Pearl™ is mainly a contact herbicide, there is also some translaminar movement within the plant (moving around the leaf). This makes it a safer alternative to glyphosate when spraying near wanted vegetation. Stems of trees & shrubs are largely un-affected by a treatment of Pearl™, although care should be taken as some speckling may occur. Effects of Pearl™ can be seen within 48 hours making it an ideal total herbicide choice.
Pearl™ is available exclusively to Agrigem and is also available in a larger pack size as Pearl 5L. Pearl™ is an alternative brand to third party brands such as Whippet, Harvest®, Finale 150® & Kurtail Gold®

On large or tough weeds two treatments may be needed, the first to kill the top growth, and the second to kill the stems or any lower leaves, the interval between treatments is usually within 14 days. For best results we would also recommend the use of a water conditoner & herbicide enhancer which is called Activate-g
