STEP 1 Mow lawn to normal height 1 to 2 days before application.

STEP 2 Water lawn thoroughly at least 1 day before application to sustain moisture until the next watering (see step 4).

STEP 3 Apply when weeds are young and growing actively, preferably in the morning when dew is on the grass. If grass is not moist at time of application, sprinkle lightly with water to allow the granules to adhere and to remain on the leaf surface of the weeds.

STEP 4 Do not irrigate or sprinkle for 1 to 2 days after application. Irrigate, sprinkle, or water the lawn thoroughly at 2 to 3 days after application.

For Kentucky bluegrass, fescues, perennial ryegrass, bermudagrass, bahiagrass, buffalograss, zoysiagrass, St. Augustinegrass and centipedegrass:

Apply 3.2 lb of product per 1,000 sq ft of turf grass. A second or follow-up application may be required for dense infestations of weeds or for adverse seasonal conditions. The second application of 3.2 lb of product per 1,000 sq ft should be used 30 days after the first application. Do not apply this product to 'Floratam' St. Augustinegrass in Florida.

The maximum application rate to turf is 1.1 lb 2,4-D acid equivalent per acre per application per site. The maximum number of broadcast applications per treatment site is 2 per year.

A uniform distribution of product on the treated area is essential. Choose a calm day to ensure uniform coverage and avoid spreading granules onto flowers, vegetables, and ornamental shrubbery. Do not exceed the application rate for any area and use care in the application of this product within the dripline of trees, shrubs, and other ornamentals.

A lawn typically utilizes 1 to 4 lb of nitrogen per 1,000 sq ft per growing season. When applied as directed, this product provides 0.89 lb of nitrogen per 1,000 sq ft. Consult your local Extension service for questions regarding a fertilizer program suitable to your geographical region.
