    Q
    How long does the temperature need to stay under 80 degrees? How soon after a rain can you apply Ferti-lome Weed Free Zone?
    It is warming up with daytime temp in the upper 90s. Rain will take highs down into the 80s. Overnight lows can be in the 70s.
    A

    When applying Fertilome Weed Free Zone, you will start seeing results within 7-14 days. The rate is 1.5-2 fl oz per gallon so we would recommend using that rate. Using less than labeled rates may not provide desirable results and you can reapply at 2 - 6 weeks intervals. The product should not be applied in temperatures over 90 degrees. It is recommended that you apply products in the early morning or late evening. It is best applied when the grass is dry but you can apply if lightly wet from dew, just not after a heavy rain. 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.

  • Asked by Gene from Cincinnati, Oh
    04/25/2018
    Q
    Will Fertilome Weed Free Zone kill my cress?
    And what rate should I apply it, 1.5 or 2.0 oz per gallon of water? My nursery guy says that my weeds are cress, they have a small white flower. My yard is tall fescue.
    A

    Unfortunately this product is not labeled specifically for a weed called cress. The Fertilome Weed Free Zone product label recommends mixing 0.75 - 1.5 fl. oz. per gallon of water. For more specific information or application tips we recommend that you contact the manufacturer directly. You can reach VPG at 888-583-5296.

    It sounds like you may have hairy bittercress, which is not only the label for Weed Free Zone, but you could use Bonide Weed Beater Ultra to control hairy bittercress in tall fescue turf.

  • Asked by Dorothy from Cottonwood, Alabama
    03/01/2018
    Q
    How much water should I add to 1 pint of Fertilome Weed Free Zone?
    A

    Fertilome Weed Free Zone is applied at the rate of 1.5-2 oz. per 1000 sq.ft. in 1-2 gallons of water. The water is merely the carrier to get the chemical evenly distributed over the lawn so whether that takes 1 gallon of water per 1000 sq.ft., or 4 gallons of water per 1000 sq.ft., both are correct so long as you are getting the right amount of weed free zone over that area.
