  3. What’s New - Select Max clethodim – Registered 2006 Select Max 0.97 EC Apply twice the rate of Select 2 EC For Cantaloupe, Cucumber, Squash, and Watermelon use 12-16 fl oz/A Label allows for use of NIS instead of COC
  4. Sinbar - Watermelon 2 to 3 oz of product applied preemergence Seeded: make applications after planting but before the crop emergence Transplants: Apply prior to transplant on bareground. May apply over mulch but ½ inch rainfall must occur following applications. Now owned by Tessenderlo Kerley, Inc

  15. Cantaloupe Runner Length 5 WAT
  16. Summary Bareground Production - Not a chance Mulch Production - Sinbar did not injury cantaloupe 5 WAT - Sinbar at 6 oz/A reduced runner length 10%, 5 WAT
  17. Sinbar Carryover There are carryover issues after an application of Sinbar most notably the cole and greens crops. Sinbar The label states “Do not replant treated areas to any crop within 2 years after last application as injury to the subsequent crop(s) may result.”
  18. Sinbar Watermelon CARRYOVER RESEARCH IN PROGRESS Label is very restrictive; UGA preliminary results: < 10% damage: sweet corn, squash, wheat, oat, rye, snap bean 1X rate 10 to 40% damage: cabbage, kale, broccoli, collard 2X rate: 40 to 80% damage: cabbage, kale, broccoli, collard
  19. Alanap Going Away – Spring 2008 Chemtura voluntarily canceling registration Production was stopped Oct. 2007 50,000 gal inventory 2.5 years of inventory if normal use continues Shelf life is about 3 years
