It has the highest solubility compared to other glyphosate salts, which significantly accelerates the penetration into the plant and the speed of action;
Acts twice as fast as other glyphosates;
It is not washed away by rain already 60 minutes after treatment;
By dissolving the wax coating of weeds, Helios Extra does not damage their cuticle, which contributes to deeper penetration of the active substance and more intensive weed destruction;
Due to its systemic action, Helios Extra destroys not only the aerial part of weeds, but also their root system;
Helios Extra effectively destroys both annual and perennial weeds in fields intended for sowing spring and winter crops, which allows you to preserve moisture and ensure the appearance of even and timely sprouts;
The herbicide Helios Extra has no soil activity, therefore, after its application, sowing of any agricultural crops can be carried out.
Mechanism of action of the drug:
Helios Extra herbicide suppresses the synthesis of amino acids in plant cells, as a result of which the synthesis of chlorophyll is blocked, followed by the death of plants, including their root system.
Complete death of weeds occurs in 10-20 days, depending on weather conditions and types of weeds.
