We have 2600 square feet of lawn. Do we really spray the entire lawn evenly (as it says) and not just spot spray the weeds with Drive?

I use Drive XLR8 to treat post emergent crabgrass and spot treat the lawn - I do not spray the entire lawn and this works fine.
890558
you can do both. I applied with a sprayer pulled behind my lawn mower and sprayed everything.

I spot sprayed the weeds in my lawn and did not make a general application. The label says that you can do this and it is effective where you have widely spaced weeds. In areas where I had crab grass I used a more general application. The product works very well with holistic weeds and does not seem to harm the desired turfgrasses.

You can spray the whole yard but I applied it to the weeds I wanted to kill. It may take a couple applications too so you don't want to spray it where it's not needed.

we mixed an sprayed it from a sprayer, just don't use on lawn as it killed the lawn also

First check the grade of the area and the area surrounding the spot in question. Essentially which way will a tennis ball roll. Thats where the water will run with rain and sprinklers. If its its path you will ruin good lawn. If it doesn't by all means just keep a 6" spread from your lawn. That should be fine even if sprayed liberally.

it depends on how much you are spraying of dollarweed. we filled a 4 gallon sprayer and did an acre of grass with a lot of dollarweed. It worked and was more than enough for us. Love the product. worked real well

Yes it will kill everything, follow instructions, if you increase the concentration you can actually watch the grass die as you spray ityou should follow up with spot spraying in 5 to 7 days

One gallon is WAY more than enough for 1750 sq ft.... The concentrate dissolution is 3 tablespoons per gallon (1.5 oz per gallon) I put 3 gallons of water and 5 oz of Killzall in my 4 gallon backpack sprayer (3 gallons because I don't want to carry 24 pounds around at first as I spray....) Those 5 oz cover about 1/4 acre, the way I spray (a little over 10,000 square feet_ I spray my entire 3/4 acre grass area in February/March when the Bermuda is dormant.... killing everything green in about 3 weeks.... wilt starts in 3-4 days depending on temperature.

Hi,This is a very good product and I was surprised at how well it worked and how far it went. Last summer, I sprayed the beds around our house (maybe 60 feet long x 4 to 10 feet wide) and used only about 1/4 of the ready to use container. It was very effective. Incidentally, I used a different non-organic spray in another area of the yard away from the house to compare efficacy. The areas where I sprayed the Avenger product are still virtually weed free this spring, the weeds are back in the other area sprayed with the other product. This stuff is good.

Yes no problem. It needs to be applied 0.69 teaspoons/1000 square ft. Also you will need use 1-2 teaspoons of a surfactant/dawn dish detergent per gallon of water to help tenacity stick to grass/weed

I have only really used the spray portion on the weeds. Hard to guess how high it would spray. Depends on how direct or wide your spray is I guess.

Grass does not need to be completely killed. You do have to make sure you water the seeds according to directions and keep out as many weeds as possible.

It is concentrated. I mixed 2 ounces per gallon into a 2-3 gallon sprayer but you can mix it hotter if you like. I am not sure if I filled the sprayer 2 or 3 times but I do know this is what I sprayed:(45'X7' area), gravel hill at the back of our yard (80'X4'), perimeter around deck pad (14'X14'), gravel area around home (12'X12' appox.) and a few other small areas. It took almost a week before I saw evidence of the product working. For years I used the strongest Round Up sold at local stores but the last 2 years the weeds would return and I was sick of spraying as often as I had to or pulling them by hand. Looked online and read this is the strongest Round Up sold so I bought it. Will see what spring brings. I live in upstate NY so everything is dormant right now.

Yes! Spray entire lawn. I use product along slab as well. Lived in home for 5 yrs and NEVER has ant problems or hills on lawn.

If it were me, I would look at the drop door & measure the distance of openness between your Scotts spreader. But I don't have a Scotts, so any time I use a unknow spreader & I am trying to spread 15,000 square feet of land, I will opt for the low end of the scale no matter what size the granules are. Then I can at least hit all of my grass, & if I have more left, I just gauge what it left & do a repeat appplication, The next time, I would adjust the spreader so it puts out a tad more fertilizer.I would rather under fertilize, then do a over-kill & burn out the whole lawn!

Once the weeds were gone, they didn't come back, so I only had to spray again to hit the weeds I missed. The grass itself was fine. It was pretty sparse where the weeds had been, but filled in nicely. ...we'll see what happens this spring though. Maybe they'll return and I'll have to use it again??

If I knew the square feet that you were going to spray that gallon of water onto I could give you a precise answer but here is a best guess. 1.3 - 5.3 oz in a gallon will give you a spray solution in the range of what I would expect you should use in doing a high volume foliar or spot spray treatment.I hope this helps. Thanks for considering doing your purchase through AgCare Direct.

The amount you would use will be dependent on the turf you are treating on. According to the label it will vary for warm and cool season grasses and they range from 0.75 to 2 ounces per 1000 sq/ft in no less than 1 gallon of water. It can be applied by tank or hose-end sprayers.

I used this product on my lawn. You should follow the directions attached to the container. The amount that is used varies with cool or warm weather. Also with type of grass it is being used on. Be careful as to how it is applied. It will kill good grass.
