    Can i mix Drive XLR8 with Surge Broadleaf Herbicide for turf in my 20 gal tank?? Thank U
    A

    We would not recommend mixing Surge Broadleaf Herbicide and Drive XLR8 Herbicide in the same tank. Per the label of Surge Herbicide, this product should not be mixed with a surfactant because it will damage your turf grass. Drive XLR8 requires one.
