General Precautions and Restrictions
WHERE TO USE
This product is intended for use on most ornamental lawns including:
COOL SEASON TURFGRASS
WARM SEASON TURFGRASS
Turfgrass Tolerance:
The turfgrass tolerance to Fertilome Weed Free Zone may vary and temporary turfgrass yellowing may occur on St. Augustinegrass and certain varieties of Hybrid Bermudagrass.
Fertilome Weed Free Zone may injure certain turfgrass species. To reduce the risk of lawn injury, avoid spraying drought stressed lawns or when temperatures are above 90 degrees F.
WHEN TO APPLY
Spray when broadleaf weeds are young and actively growing for best results.
Fertilome Weed Free Zone may be applied in the spring, summer, or fall.
Spring and fall treatments under adequate soil moisture conditions are preferred to the summer treatments. Generally, summer broadcast applications to older, drought-stressed weeds are less effective.
Broadcast (entire areas) applications or follow-up applications at 2-6 week intervals are recommended for more mature weeds, for dense infestations, and for adverse environmental conditions.
Spot treatments during summer may be appropriate for sparse infestations, or as a follow-up treatment, or any time broadleaf weeds are susceptible.

BROADLEAF WEEDS CONTROLLED
Great Product!!
By Tony on 04/28/2011
Weed Free Zone is the best weed killer I have ever used. Not only does it work flawlessly, but the weeds are brown and shriveled in as little as two days. Sure it's pricey, but it WORKS. So many times I have tried other weed killers from companies such as Ortho, like you get at a home center, and it takes forever to kill the weeds. WFZ is the champion of weed killers in my book. Not the most environmentally friendly product out there, but when you need weeds killed and killed fast, you can't beat WFZ.

The Eradication of Creeping Charlie (ground Ivy) by FWFZ
By Robert on 10/06/2011
Verified Purchase
I was pointed toward Fertilome Weed Free Zone by my next door neighbor. I have applied one spraying with hand pump sprayer and noticed instant results and had to respray very little on second application. It is remarkable how fast it acts and kills the creeping charlie which is the hardest most evasive weed on my property. I highly recommend this product and will be buying more from DoMyOwnPestControl.com. Thanks, R.Y.

Weed Free Zone
By Larry on 08/15/2011
Verified Purchase
Weed Free Zone is the only product that I have found that will control wild violets in my grass. But, it does take more than one application especially on older, more mature plants. Of course it works great on the regular broad leaf weeds too. Don't forget to use a surfactant so that the product will wet the leaves.

Weed Free Zone for Dandelions
By Daryl on 05/08/2011
I have been using this Fertilome Weed Free Zone on Dandelions for three years. I have been individually hand spraying them because they said not to use a broadcast sprayer. Applying it is in the spring and twice in September as instructed. I have more than when I started. I think it actually multiplies them. It does not appear to have any killing affect on dandelions at all. Very high cost for very poor performance. Recommend not wasting your money.

Only rain or watering within 4 hours of application of the Fertilome Weed Free Zone would decrease the effectiveness. Rain 24 hours after application should not effect the application.
