If you are applying this product as a pre-emergent herbicide (no surfactant), then you should irrigate the application with 1/4" - 1/2" of water immediately after application for best results. It can be applied in addition to other pre-emergent herbicides, including Fertilome Gallery. It is really only used as a pre-emergent for full lawn renovations, since it's really not meant to be broadcast over large areas of established lawn, as it does cause temporary whitening of your turf. You would follow the instructions on both product labels. If you are applying Prime Source Meso 4SC Select (Generic Tenacity Herbicide) as a post-emergent herbicide with surfactant (to kill existing weeds), then you should wait at least 24 hours before watering the treatment area. Post applications are typically applied in the fall at the time of overseeding. We do offer other products for selective broadleaf control in turf that can be applied along with a pre-emergent application. Pre-emergents are most effective when applied at the appropriate time in your area and prior to the ground temperature reaching 55 degrees. Fall and Spring applications are suggested if not seeding.

Unfortunately, we do not have the spreader settings for that specific combo, and since the manufacturer does not list that spreader on their bag we are unsure what the exact setting would be. Due to the thousands of granules on the market and just as many different types of spreaders, there isn't a master list that exists.
We recommend calibrating your spreader for the specific product being applied or contacting the manufacturer of your model spreader or even the manufacturer of the product being applied as they may possibly be able to quickly advise on the best spreader setting rate.
Otherwise, you will want to calibrate your spreader to the product you are using and its application rates. Take a moment to view our How to Calibrate your Spreader Video for a quick tutorial of this process.
Unfortunately, spreader settings are specific to the product being applied and the specific spreader being used for the application. Due to the thousands of granules on the market and just as many different types of spreaders, there isn't a master list that exists.
If a granule product does not list the specific spreader and/or setting recommendation for your equipment, you will need to calibrate your spreader to the product being applied and it’s application rates or you may try contacting the manufacturer directly for assistance.
Please take a moment to view our short video on How to Calibrate Your Spreader for a quick demonstration of how to do this.
