WHAT IS CUTRINE®-PLUS?
CUTRINE®-PLUS is an algaecide which controls existing algae and inhibits rapid re-infestation.
CUTRINE®-PLUS also acts as a herbicide in controlling the rooted underwater weed Hydrilla verticillata.
|
BASIC FACTS: CUTRINE®-PLUS
- Is a liquid formulation which
contains 9.0% active ingredient.
- Contains 0.909
pounds of copper per gallon.
- Has a specific gravity
of 1.21 (10.1 lbs. per gallon).
- Controls algae at 0.2
to 0.4 ppm copper and hydrilla at 0.4 to 1.0 ppm
copper.
- Controls all three forms of algae:
planktonic, filamentous and chara.
|
ADVANTAGES- CUTRINE®-PLUS is
U.S.E.P.A. registered for use in drinking water
reservoirs, farm fish and industrial ponds, golf course
water hazards, lakes, fish hatcheries and raceways,
irrigation water conveyance systems such as canals,
laterals and ditches.
- CUTRINE®-PLUS is far less
corrosive to equipment and other metal surfaces than
other chelated copper compounds.
- CUTRINE®-PLUS
treated water can be used for swimming, domestic uses
and livestock watering immediately after chemical
application.
- Water from treated lakes, ponds,
irrigation systems and golf course water hazards may be
used to irrigate turf, fairways, putting greens and
ornamental plants.
- Fish can be caught and consumed
immediately after CUTRINE®-PLUS
application.
- CUTRINE®-PLUS will not plate-out or
precipitate under normal storage conditions nor does the
copper in CUTRINE®-PLUS precipitate out and become
ineffective in alkaline or hard water.
- CUTRINE®-PLUS
has been used successfully in trout ponds which
contained cold, hard water.
- CUTRINE®-PLUS is
available in two formulations (liquid and granular) for
controlling floating, suspended and bottom-growing types
of algae.
- CUTRINE®-PLUS effectively controls the
noxious submersed weed, Hydrilla verticillata, without
requiring post-treatment water use restrictions
associated with other herbicides.
- CUTRINE®-PLUS is
compatible in tank mixes with the aquatic herbicides
Weedtrine®-D, Reward and Aquathol K.
- CUTRINE®-PLUS
can be applied to flowing water using a continuous
delivery drip system. It has been used effectively in
trout raceways and irrigation canals.
|
APPLICATION
RATES:
CUTRINE®-PLUS- is applied at a rate of 0.6
gallon per acre-foot (43,560 cubic feet) of water to be
treated for planktonic and filamentous algae, 1.2
gallons per acre-foot for Chara and Nitella and 1.2 to
3.0 gallons per acre-foot for Hydrilla. |
METHOD OF
APPLICATION:
CUTRINE®-PLUS should be diluted with
at least 9 parts of water to facilitate even
distribution during application. Surface spray is most
practical for treatment of planktonic and filamentous
algae. Bottom-growing algae should be treated by
underwater injection or by application of CUTRINE®-PLUS
GRANULAR. Hydrilla can be treated by surface spray or
underwater injection.
|
CONTAINER
SIZES:
CUTRINE®-PLUS is available in 1 gallon
(packed 4 to a case), 2 1/2 gallon (packed 2 to a case),
5 gallon, 30 gallon, 55 gallon and 275 gallon
containers. |
NOTE:
CUTRINE®-PLUS
need sunlight to optimize
effectiveness.
CUTRINE®-PLUS is not completely
effective against Pithophora and
diatoms.
CUTRINE®-PLUS can be toxic to trout, at the
recommended application rates, if the water has less
than 50 ppm of carbonate hardness (soft water). Do not
use in waters containing Koi and hybrid goldfish. Not
intended for use in small volume, garden pond
systems.
|
OF SPECIAL
INTEREST:
CUTRINE®-PLUS has proven to be the
favorite algaecide for fish growers because they can
calculate and apply the exact amount of copper they
desire. It can reduce or eliminate taste and odor
problems caused by geosmin and MIB producing blue-green
algae. It can be used to reduce the incidence of
secondary bacterial or fungal infections by reducing the
phytoplanktonic irritants which can expose the gill
surfaces of the fish.
