Buccaneer Plus Mixing FAQ
Everything you need to know about mix ratios, spray volumes, and safe application.
Buccaneer Plus is a 41% glyphosate concentrate. Broadcast label rates typically range from 1 to 5 quarts per acre depending on the target weeds, their growth stage, and the use site, while spot treatments are often mixed as a 1 to 3 percent solution by volume. Always check your specific product label for the exact rate.
This depends on your target application rate per acre and your sprayer’s carrier volume (gallons per acre). For example, at 2 quarts per acre in a 20-gallon-per-acre carrier volume, that works out to roughly 3.2 fluid ounces of product per gallon of spray solution.
Buccaneer Plus can be tank-mixed with certain other herbicides to broaden the spectrum of weeds controlled, but compatibility depends on the specific products involved. Always check the product label and, when unsure, run a small jar compatibility test before mixing a full tank.
Most glyphosate products, including Buccaneer Plus, need a rain-free period of at least 4 to 6 hours after application for adequate absorption into the plant, though a longer window is better. Always check the rainfast interval printed on your specific product label.
Many glyphosate formulations already include a built-in surfactant, but some labels still recommend adding a non-ionic surfactant (NIS) to improve leaf coverage and uptake, especially on waxy or hairy-leaved weeds. Check your specific Buccaneer Plus label to confirm whether an additional surfactant is recommended.
