HELMQUAT 3SL EPA Reg. No.: 74530-48 | Manufacturer: Helm Agro US, Inc. HELMQUAT® 3SL is a non-selective, fast-acting contact herbicide designed for the control of a broad spectrum of emerged annual and perennial weeds. It is also utilized as a desiccant and defoliant in various crops to facilitate harvest. The product is labeled for use on over 100 crops, including but not limited to alfalfa, almonds, corn (field and sweet), cotton, sorghum (grain), soybeans, and wheat. HELMQUAT® 3SL operates as a contact herbicide, rapidly absorbed by green plant tissue. Once absorbed, it interferes with the photosynthetic process, producing reactive oxygen species that destroy plant cells. This action leads to the desiccation of all green plant tissue. The herbicide is classified under WSSA Group 22. Key Weeds Controlled: - Annual and perennial grasses - Broadleaf weeds - Palmer amaranth - Pigweed - Lambsquarters - Marestail - Foxtails Application Timing: HELMQUAT 3SL should be applied when target weeds are young and actively growing for optimal efficacy. For pre-plant burndown, apply before planting crops for a clean seedbed. For post-harvest & pre-emergence use for rapid desiccation of green foliage before crop emergence or at harvest for quick dry-down of crops such as cotton, potatoes, and soybeans. Always refer to the product label for crop-specific directions and safety requirements. Use only according to label instructions and local regulations. HELMQUAT 3SL is a Restricted Use Pesticide—handler training and safety protocols are required.
