I am a big fan of Raptor, always worked extremely well and have used for at least 14 years. 5-7 oz per acre was always the ticket. I never had an unsatisfactory result with any field. This year I was out and decided to give Imox Imazmox a try. I read all the posts on here, and checked out the labels. I thought in theory it should be the same for a lot of reason I will not list because others have noted on here before.
I sprayed at 7-8oz per acre and I was really disappointed. I sprayed all of the clover plots the first time and the results were not good at all. After I had waited long enough to be sure the undesirables were not going to die down any better, I sprayed again which in 14 years I had never had to do with Raptor. It did improve the kill, but wow it still was not as good as a single application of Raptor at 7 oz per acre and I was looking at 14-16 oz of IMOX in a month.
I know IMOX says to use at much higher concentrations. I read the posts on here as to why that was, and I don’t know what the answer is. However, there is something significantly different between the Raptor and IMOX. If anyone is using the two with the same results I am all ears.
I know the conditions were appropriate to apply. The method of application was the same. I have not idea other than to say there must be some truth to the label that suggests concentrations needed are far greater than that of Raptor which if true means it is not less expensive to use.
