Turfgrass Tolerance:
The turfgrass tolerance to Fertilome Weed Free Zone RTS may vary and temporary turfgrass yellowing may occur on St. Augustinegrass and certain varieties of Hybrid Bermudagrass.
Fertilome Weed Free Zone RTS 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 RTS 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 the summer may be appropriate for sparse infestations or as a follow-up treatment, or any time broadleaf weeds are susceptible.

Plaudits and many thanks to the helpful, courteous folks here at DoMyOwn. This product worked powerfully against an invasion of spurge on my hybrid Bermuda lawn-- which still holds the unofficial title as Pride of The Neighborhood.

Yes, both the Fertilome Weed Free Zone RTS and Fertilome Weed Free Zone Concentrate contain the same active ingredients and amounts of each. The only difference is one comes with the hose end sprayer attachment top and hte other is for thoes that have their own tank sprayer they prefer to mix it within and use instead. Make sure to follow the label instructions to avoid any turf injury.
