Systemic herbicides work best when applied late morning, midday and in the afternoon in cool or cold climates. As the sun rises the following day, plant growth slows down and speeds up again. It’s best to apply the herbicides after the sun comes up because heavy early morning dew can cause them to run off.
The best time to apply a herbicide is when the soil is warm and moist, but not hot or dry. This is the time of year when weeds are most likely to grow. Herbicides should be applied at the same time every day, even if the weather is hot and dry, to prevent weeds from developing resistance to the chemical.
