Will this mixture freeze

[woodlandfarms]

I am in LA, maybe for a while. I just realized my sprayer is 1/4 full of Crossbow mix (it has surficant as well). Just wondering if the Crossbow will lower the freezepoint. I usually put in some non freeze stuff but as I left the farm in September...

We don't get too cold where I live. usually 35 during the day at the lowest, and 20 at night and only for short stretches. But as the weather is no longer predictable.... Last year we had no freezing days, the year before, way to many.

Anyone have an insight on Crossbow?

This came up on a search.........freeze point has not been determined: http://www.cdms.net/LDat/mp42T000.pdf

I live up the road (Longview) from you and had we met for coffee a couple a years ago like we almost did I say that I'd go drain your tank but since we didn't meet, I wouldn't let me near your place cause you realy don't know me! I'm at 800 ft and have never had any trouble with my sprayer. Don't worry about it till january at least. You could mix up a liter bottle of the stuff and put it in the freezer and see what happens! Good luck!

Most folks' freezers are at around 0 degrees Fahrenheit or below, so if it doesn't freeze in there, you're probably good to go. But if it does freeze, you may still be good to go, since most folks talking about a "freeze" outdoors are referring to 32 F. PS: If you go putting Crossbow in your fridge, make sure you seal it up well and clean it off. I wouldn't want that stuff getting on my food.

Page down a couple to herbicides - crossbow is listed as "Crossbow Store above 10F or agitate before use."

I'd keep in mind that if it's mixed, most of the solution is WATER.

Maybe find a spot to store it near the water heater??!? Steve (That's if the WH is in the garage and you don't live in Northern Minnesota or the like...)

I live in AL with a very similar climate. I think that you mixture will freeze, and I would either empty it or add RV antifreeze to your Crossbow. This should be sufficient to keep it liquid.
