Casoron 4G Herbicide should not be applied near any young trees (also none that are less than 6 months or inside the dripline). No more than 150 lbs per acre should be applied to lilac and on plantings that are less than one year.
It is recommended that you wait at least four weeks before planting anything in an area treated with Casoron 4G Herbicide.
Casoron 4G Herbicide does not get into the air and effect plants or soil that way. It can prevent things growing in treated soil as it is pre-emergent though. Since it can stay in the soil for at least 1 year, you would need to wait at least one year after application to replant or remove the treated soil and replace with new.
Casoron 4G Herbicide is a pre-emergent only, so it will not kill any existing plants such as poison oak. The product label indicates that Casoron 4G may injure conifers if applied in a way that contacts the foliage. We recommend that you wear protective clothing, cut the vines, and then treat the fresh cuts with a brush killer such as Fertilome Brush Killer and Stump Killer or RoundUp QuikPro for best results and to reduce risk to the desirable trees.
Keep pets and kids out of the area after applying Casoron 4G Herbicide until the area has completely dried. Then it is safe to re-enter.
Per the manufacturer label, Casoron 4G should not be used near any type of conifer trees.
Since Casoron 4G Herbicide is not labeled to be used around palms, we would not recommend this application. Please let us know what weeds you are targeting so that we can make an alternative product recommendation for you.
Casoron 4G Herbicide can be used for control of nutsedge in non-crop areas only. Per the label, apply recommended rates and incorporate immediately to a depth of 4 to 6 inches. Please see the Label for complete application instructions.
Casoron 4G is not labeled for Mediterranean sage at all. We are not aware of any pre-emergents that are labeled for use on sage to prevent it from coming up or coming back. Most applications are done with a post-emergent herbicide that is used throughout the growing season to control it as it comes up. A product like Gordons Pasture Pro is labeled to control Mediterranean sage and can be used at up to 2 oz per gallon of water. Gly Pho-Sel Pro Dry 75 also lists sage in general on the label and can be used per the label at up to 7 oz per gallon. Gly Pho Sel is one of the highest percentage glyphosate (Roundup-type) products on the market but it is a non-selective herbicide so you will want to be careful with application if desirable vegetation is nearby.
