Benefits of Paraquat Dichloride 24% Sl
- Fastest knockdown weedicide: Visible wilting starts in 2 – 3 hours, full kill in 24 – 48 hours fastest action of any weedicide in India
- Rain-fast in 15 – 30 minutes: Best choice for monsoon spraying when sudden rain is a risk
- Wide crop approval: CIB-approved for tea, rubber, cotton, aquatic weeds, coffee, potato, apple, grapes
- Soil-safe: Binds tightly to soil on contact does not leach down, safe to plant new crop after 1 to 2 days
- Inter-crop friendly: Safe directed spray in orchards and plantations does not enter through tree bark
- Cost-effective per acre: Lower dose than glyphosate, faster results, lower per-acre cost
- Works in cool weather: Effective even in winter when glyphosate becomes slow
How Does SUMAX Work?
Paraquat is a contact herbicide it works very differently from glyphosate:
- Sprays on weed leaves: Paraquat enters the leaf surface in minutes
- Disrupts photosynthesis (PSI): Blocks the photosystem I in the plant cell
- Creates damaging free radicals: These oxygen radicals burst the leaf cells from inside
- Plant dries and dies: Wilting starts in hours, full death in 24 – 48 hours
Important: Paraquat is a contact killer only it does NOT travel to roots. Perennial weeds (Doob, Motha, Kans grass) will regrow from roots. For root-level kill on perennials, use Glyphosate 41% SL instead.
Paraquat (SUMAX) vs Glyphosate — When to Use Which? SUMAX (Paraquat) = fast knockdown in 24 – 48 hours, rain-fast in 15 minutes, best for tea, rubber, cotton pre-sowing, aquatic weeds, and inter-crop spray where you need quick visible results. Glyphosate = slow but kills roots also, best for tough perennial weeds (Motha, Doob, Kans) and pre-sowing fields where you need full root kill. Many farmers tank-mix a low dose of glyphosate + paraquat for both fast knockdown and root kill.

Solid, grippy, and they don’t roll away!
Style: 10 Pound, Pair
I bought these because I’m finally trying to build a consistent home workout routine and didn't want to drop a fortune on name-brand weights. I’ve been using this 10lb pair for about a month now for everything from overhead presses to lunges, and honestly, they’re exactly what I was looking for.
The Pros:
• That Neoprene Grip: The coating is fantastic. Even when my hands get pretty sweaty halfway through a workout, I don’t feel like I’m going to drop them. It’s a much "softer" feel than cold metal or hard plastic.
• The Hex Shape: This is a small detail that makes a huge difference. Since the ends are hexagonal, they don't roll across the floor when I set them down between sets. They also stay put if I’m using them for "renegade rows" or floor work.
• Compact Size: They aren’t bulky. I can easily shove them under my bed or in the corner of the closet when I’m done.
• No Weird Odor: I was worried they might smell like a tire factory (which happens with some rubber-coated weights), but these had almost no scent right out of the box.
The Cons:
• Handle Diameter: The handles are a little on the thicker side. I have medium-sized hands and it’s fine, but if you have very small hands, they might feel a bit chunky to wrap your fingers all the way around.
• Color Scuffs: The navy blue looks great, but if you clank them together or drop them on concrete, the coating can scuff or show dust pretty easily.
The Verdict:
If you just need a reliable set of weights for HIIT, Pilates, or general strength training, these are a no-brainer. You're basically getting gym-quality equipment for a fraction of the price. I’ll probably be back for the 15lb set in a few months!

Really Nice Hydrating Toner Pads
Scent: Collagen, Scent: Collagen
At 52, post-menopausal, with dry and increasingly sensitive skin, I’m very selective about toner pads. Many of them either feel too thin and ineffective or too active and irritating. These landed right in the middle in the best possible way — gentle, hydrating, and very easy to use.
The first thing I noticed is how well these pads are saturated. They’re not dripping, but they hold enough product to comfortably treat the entire face. The gel texture also makes them feel a little more substantial than typical toner pads, which I really like. They feel cooling and comfortable on the skin.
What I notice most after using them is how hydrated and slightly plumped my skin looks. This isn’t dramatic or instant, but it’s the kind of improvement that makes your skin look healthier and more comfortable. My skin feels smoother and softer, and it layers very well with the rest of my routine.
They also feel very lightweight. There’s no sticky or heavy residue, and once the essence absorbs, my skin just feels hydrated and calm. I can easily follow with serums and moisturizer without any pilling.
I also appreciate that these pads are gentle and very skin-compatible. I’ve had no irritation, redness, or sensitivity, even on days when my skin is feeling more reactive. At this stage, that matters more than aggressive results.
In terms of moisture, these do a really nice job. My skin feels comfortable after using them, and they work well as a prep step before the rest of my routine. On some mornings, they even give enough hydration that I don’t feel rushed to apply moisturizer immediately.
Fragrance is also worth mentioning. The scent is very light and subtle, and it doesn’t linger. I’m careful about fragrance, and these didn’t cause any sensitivity or irritation.
Another thing I like is how easy they are to use. They’re quick, convenient, and a nice step when I want hydration without adding another liquid toner.
Overall, these feel like a supportive, hydrating step that helps improve overall skin quality over time. They’re gentle, comfortable, and easy to incorporate into a daily routine.

Love These Toner Pads
Scent: Collagen
I’ve really been enjoying these Biodance Collagen Gel Toner Pads! They feel super refreshing on the skin and are an easy step to add into my routine. The pads are well-soaked without being messy, and they glide on smoothly.
After using them consistently, my skin feels more hydrated and looks a bit more plump and smooth. I’ve also noticed my pores appear slightly minimized, especially around my T-zone. They’re gentle enough for daily use and don’t irritate my skin.
Overall, a great option if you’re looking for a simple way to boost hydration and improve your skin’s overall look and feel!

Finally!!
Scent: Collagen
I have had huge pores with combination oily skin and dry skin since reaching my mid 30’s and makeup made them more prominent. Since adding these to my morning routine my makeup stays smooth with my pores minimized and skin looking and feeling healthier. After trying multiple products I finally found THE ONE.
