5-Pack (1.5 oz.) Roundup QuikPro Herbicide with Diquat and Glyphosate


Dry concentrate non-selective herbicide which combines the systemic action of Glyphosate (active ingredient in Roundup, Rodeo, Gallup and others) with quick knockdown power of Diquat.

Quikpro is one of the newer products designed by Monsanto, one which has been highly anticipated by agricultural and turf industries as well as the general public.

Roundup has long been a trusted product to use when total vegetation kill of both weeds and grasses is needed. One of the more desirable characteristics of Roundup is its ability to provide a quick and thorough kill of undesirable vegetation without lingering in the soil for long periods of time. Diquat has been added to Roundup (in this formulation) to provide customers with a faster kill. Long time users of Diquat prefer its ability to give a quick burn down of plant leaves and (as is seen with Glyphosate) its lack of undesirable residual in surrounding soil.
Heavy herbicides such as Trimec, Manage and Image can remain in the soil for several weeks, making it difficult to sod or seed new lawns or plant other desirable vegetation after a short time lapse between spraying and replanting. Glyphosate and Diquat (the active ingredients in Quikpro herbicide) do not remain in the soil for such long periods. New plants can usually be planted a couple of weeks after applying Quickpro herbicide.

Both Roundup Pro Dry and Quikpro contain Glyphosate, a systemic non-selective herbicide that enters the targeted plant through the leaves and translocates (moves through the plant) to the plant roots. Plant roots are killed by the herbicide, therefore killing the plant. These products are also comparable in their type of formulation and packaging. They are dry concentrated crystals that are mixed with water to form a solution. Boxes contain 5 packets of concentrated materials; most people use 1 packet per gallon of water but they can be mixed stronger or weaker than this rate.

The active ingredient in Roundup Pro Dry is 71.40% Glyphosate.
In our Quikpro, the active ingredients are 73.30% Glyphosate and 2.90% Diquat.
As noted above, Glyphosate systemic moves through plants, killing the root system. Diquat is not a systemic herbicide but, rather, kills the plant at the leaves or blades. Simply put, Glyphosate and Diquat combine to attack unwanted weeds and grasses from top to bottom.

Quikpro by Roundup is packaged in a box containing 5 packets of dry concentrated herbicide.

Each packet contains 1.5 ounces of concentrate and makes 1 to 2 gallons of herbicide solution.
