Which statement describes Triclopyr's Renovate product?

• A. Renovate is a granular-only product for terrestrial weeds.
• B. Renovate is a liquid and granular product for all aquatic plants; selective, systemic herbicide.
• C. Renovate is a non-selective contact herbicide for algae.
• D. Renovate is a fertilizer for aquatic plants.

Answer: (B)

Renovate is a triclopyr-based product designed to control broadleaf aquatic weeds by moving through the plant (systemic action). It is selective, meaning it targets broadleaf species and doesn’t affect most grasses or other plants in the water. The product is offered in both granular and liquid forms, providing flexibility for different treatment approaches—granular formulations are common for larger areas and slower release, while liquids suit certain application methods or spot treatments. It is not a fertilizer, nor a non-selective contact herbicide, and it’s not intended for algae control. Describing Renovate as a liquid and granular product that is selective and systemic best reflects its real-world use and labeling.
