  • Asked by Richard from Lafayette, La
    05/02/2017
    Q
    How long before I see any indication Fertilome Weed Free Zone is working?
    I may have used 1.0 oz of product per gallon of water instead of the recommended dosage of 1.5 oz per gallon of water. If I used too little, can I reapply? How long should I wait? When is it is applied when current temperature during application is below 90 degrees, is that OK? Hot days are coming soon to South Louisiana? Thank you
    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.

  • Asked by John from Ny
    04/30/2017
    Q
    Should I apply Fertilome Weed Free Zone to the entire lawn or should I just treat the weeds directly?
    A

    Per the Fertilome Weed Free Zone label instructions:  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.

  • Asked by Jeff from Sussex Wisconsin
    04/25/2017

    Can I use Fertilome Weed Free Zone to pre-kill weeds in my vegetable garden?

    04/22/2017
    Q
    If I mix a gallon of Fertilome Weed Free Zone and don't use it all that day, how long can I store what is left over?
    A

    When using Fertilome Weed Free Zone or any similar herbicides, we recommend only mixing what you plan to use right away. You should not store diluted product in your spray tank as this will cause the active ingredients to break down, and it may cause damage to your sprayer. We would recommend using diluted product within 24 hours of mixing.
