Coverage area
1L of product will treat between 22.5 and 90 m2 (242 and 968 ft2).
Where to use
For use on lawn turf consisting of one or more of Kentucky bluegrass, perennial ryegrass, and fescue (tall fescue, chewing fescue, and/or creeping fescue) for control or suppression of broadleaf weeds.
How to use
SHAKE WELL BEFORE USING.
Use with the Scotts® Dial ‘N Spray® Hose-End Sprayer or any standard hand-held or backpack sprayer.
Scotts® Dial ‘N Spray® Hose-End Sprayer:
Set the dial on the Dial ‘N Spray® applicator to 55 and go over the area twice.
Hand-held or backpack sprayers:
Mix 125 mL of concentrate with 1 L of water.
Use a coarse nozzle setting to reduce drift.
Apply the mixed solution at a rate of 100-400 ml/m2. The standard rate is 200 ml spray/m2; use the higher rate (400 ml spray/m2) on the following tough perennial weeds: broad-leaved plantain (suppression only), creeping buttercup, and Canada thistle. For Canada thistle, best results are obtained when weeds are less than 15 cm tall. Use the lower rate (100 ml spray/m2) on moss, black medic, slender speedwell, wild geranium and on weed seedlings of false dandelion, English daisy, dandelion or white clover.
Spray weeds until foliage is thoroughly soaked, just to the point of runoff. Uniform coverage is important.
A second application may be required.
Where not to use
Avoid spraying desirable plants. Any desirable plants or structures accidentally contacted should be rinsed immediately with water.
When to apply
Apply to actively growing weeds in the lawn.
How often to apply
Repeat treatment every three to four weeks if necessary, up to a maximum of 4 applications per area per year.
