Citron� will save you time, money and frustration when applying glyphosate-based herbicides. Citron� is an acid-based adjuvant that when used properly, conditions the spray tank water by dramatically lowering the pH. This results in less bonding or tying-up of the glyphosate molecules by minerals in the water.

When you spray glyphosate without an adjuvant, only about 4% of the herbicide is absorbed into the plant tissue. When you add AMS to the tank you get the glyphosate molecule to be absorbed at a rate of 17%. With Citron�, absorption of glyphosate into plant tissue is increased to 47%. This greater herbicide absorption leads to a quicker and more efficient weed kill.

Perhaps the best thing about Citron� is that an 11 lb. package effectively conditions 500 gallons of water (it would take 85 lbs. of AMS for 500 gallons of water). It dissolves rapidly with virtually no product left in suspension after mixing. This results in less mixing time, no plugging of spray tips, less storage space, and a whole lot less weight to be handled by you and your spray equipment. And the cost per acre is virtually identical to AMS.
