We would need to know what type of grass the other 50% of your lawn is before we could recommend any post emergent products. We can recommend using a good pre-emergent like Dimension 2EW to prevent weeds from germinating. Often with a few years of fall and spring applications you can get decent prevention.
You will use .33 - .73 of an ounce of Dimension 2EW per 1,000 sq ft. (normally 1-2 gallons of water). The exact usage rate will depend on your location and the application program you choose. Please refer to pages 4-6 of the Dimension 2EW Herbicide Label to find the exact usage rate for your needs.
We would not recommend applying herbicides such as Dimension 2EW Herbicide during active precipitation. The manufacturer recommends to water this product in within 24 hours after application, so it would be best if you apply it the day before rain is expected again.
Dimension 2 EW is a pre-emergent to stop the weeds from emerging from seed. This product will not kill dallisgrass but will prevent more from emerging in the lawn.
For pre-emergent of both grassy and broadleaf weeds, Dimension 2EW or Prodiamine 65 WDG are both great options. For post emergent control that is safe on Centipede grass, Image Herbicide or Blindside Herbicide are both for grassy and broadleaf.
For ants outside in the lawn you can use a bait like the Intice 10 Perimeter Bait or a spray such as Talstar P.
According to the Dimension 2EW Herbicide product label, new sod/seed should not be applied for at least 3 months. Once the sod/seed has been put down, it needs to be established for at least 6 months before applying Dimension 2EW Herbicide again.
If you’re unsure of which types of crabgrass you have, we would recommend Dimension 2EW as it is labeled for the large, smooth, and southern crabgrass types. Prodiamine 65 is only labeled for the large and smooth.
Dimension 2EW Herbicide is safe to apply around established purple coneflower but is not specifically labeled for applications to sweet woodruff and wild ginger.
Yes, Dimension 2EW Herbicide is labeled safe to use on Bahiagrass.
The Dimension 2EW Herbicide product label does not state that it can be used over moss but does not list it on the label as tolerable, so we cannot confirm if it would harm moss. We would recommend testing a small area to see if any injury occurs.
Dimension 2EW Herbicide is safe for all lawn types when used as directed on the product label.
Herbicides such as Dimension 2EW Herbicide are a lot different than other concentrated products and can be hard to understand at first. The application rate depends on the the type of turf you have and how quickly you apply the product. You will need to read the product label to determine the correct usage rate for your needs (you did not give us any information about the type of lawn or application area, region or application program you will be using so we cannot give you exact rates). You will need .75 - 3.0 pints of Dimension 2EW per acre in how much water it takes to cover the acre.
Dimension 2EW Herbicide is safe for all when used as directed on the label.
Dimension 2EW Herbicide only states tank mixing with fertilizers or other herbicides. When tank mixing Dimension 2EW with other materials, a compatibility test (jar test) using relative proportions of the tank mix ingredients should be conducted prior to mixing ingredients in the spray tank. See the Physical Compatibility Test Mixing Instructions section of this label.
Dimension 2EW Herbicide is not labeled for Blanket Crabgrass. We recommend to use Prodiamine.
The Dimension 2EW Herbicide has two labels, the original product label and a Supplemental Product Label. The complete product label discusses applications for turf, lawns, landscape beds, ornamentals, etc. The Supplemental Product Label discusses applications for landscapes, field-grown, and container-grown ornamentals only to make finding these application rates easier. If you are treating your lawn with Dimension 2EW Herbicide, you would review the original product label.
Dimension 2EW Herbicide is not labeled for use in food plots. We do apologize but we are not aware of a pre-emergent product that could be used in a food plot. This is more of an agricultural product. You may be able to check with your local ag department for a recommendation and we can see if we can get it.
Dimension 2EW is not labeled to treat junglerice.
Burningbush is not listed on the Dimension 2EW label as a tolerable plant. If you would like to speak directly to the manufacturer for more information you can reach them at 317-337-3000.
Yes, you can mix a pre-emergent like Dimension 2EW with Quinclorac 75 DF. We would recommend to do a tank mix test first to ensure the chemicals are compatible while in mixture.
