Rope-A-DopeTM Gravity Flow Applicator

Gravity flow principle - pour chemical into pipe, tilt ropes to desired angle (45 degrees downward recommended), and wipe wet ropes across weeds.  Allows safe application of non-selective chemical to control unwanted weeds and grasses above the crop.  Durable wick ropes are made with a diamond braid, polyester jacket over an acrylic core and are easily removed for cleaning or replacing.  Heavy wall 3" PVC pipe features threaded adapters to guard against leaks and is vented for continuous flow.  May require 2 passes (in opposite directions) in heavy infestations.  3mph recommended application speed.
