bearing vineyards, Christmas tree/conifer plantations and non-cropland areas. Apply Gallery 75 Dry
Flowable in late summer to early fall, in early spring, or anytime prior to germination of target weeds, or
immediately after cultivation.
General Use Precautions
Gallery 75 Dry Flowable controls weeds germinating from seed. Gallery 75 Dry Flowable does not control
established weeds, or weeds growing from stolons. rhizomes, or root pieces. Existing weeds should be
controlled by cultivation or with postemergence herbicides. Weed residues, prunings, and trash should be
removed or thoroughly mixed into the soil prior to lfealmaAt application. Soil in non-turf areas should be in
good condition and free of clods at the time of application. Gallery 75 Dry Flowable is stable on the soil
surface for up to 21 days, but must be astivataE! incorporated by moisture to be effective. A single rainfall
or sprinkler irrigation of 0.5 inches or more, or ftood irrigation after application is necessary to activate
Gallery 75 Dry Flowable. If Gallery 75 Dry Flowable is not activated by rainfall of irrigation within 21 days
Elf after application, erratic weed control may result. In non-turf areas, if weeds emerge due to lack of
rainfall or irrigation, shallow sllitivata cultivation to a depth of 1 to 2 inches will incorporate the herbicide
and te-destroy existing weeds eF FaRle'le 91 haRE!.

use by treating a small area or small number of plants at a recommended rate. Prior to treatment of larger
areas, the treated area/plants should be observed for any sign of herbicidal injury during 30 to 60 days of
typical growing conditions. The user assumes the responsibility for any plant damage or other
liability resulting from use of Gallery 75 Dry Flowable on species not recommended on this label.

emergence of non-target plants adjacent to the treated area. Maintain agitation from mixing through
application. Avoid boom overlaps that will increase rates above those recommended. Calibrate
application equipment prior to use, a=rding to manufacturer's directions. Check calibration frequently to
be sure equipment is working properly and distributing spray uniformly.
