    Q
    How to use the hose end sprayer Fertilome Weed Free Zone RTS?
    A

    Per the Fertilome Weed Free Zone RTS product label instructions are:

    How To Apply Using The Ready To Spray System

    1. Measure the total (entire) lawn area to be sprayed. For rectangular areas, multiply the length by the width to obtain total square feet.

    2. Connect a garden hose to the hose-end sprayer. Make sure the control valve on the nozzle is in the OFF position. TO BEGIN spraying: Turn on water at faucet. Point nozzle toward lawn to be treated and turn the control valve to the ON position. Water will automatically mix with the product. Spray evenly over the measured area.

    3. SPRAY: Spray evenly over the measured area. Walk at a steady pace. Refer to the view strip [graduated scale] on the side of the container to guide coverage. The 32 fl.oz. container will treat 16,000 to 43,000 sq.ft. of turfgrass.

    4. To STOP spraying: Turn the control valve to the OFF position. Turn off water at faucet. To relieve pressure, turn control valve to ON position and wait until water stops spraying before removing sprayer from hose.

    Q
    What is the minimum air temperature to apply Fertilome Weed Free Zone RTS?
    I'm a DMO customer for certain insecticide. Here in January in the South, lawn burweed is seen in my dormant centipede lawn. I'd like to kill it off before it develops the burrs. The label does not list a minimum temperature....daytime temperatures here are 40-50. Should I wait until it's in the 60's for several days, or will this product work at lower temperatures. thanks.
    A

    Per the manufacturer, Fertilome Weed Free Zone RTS will work in temperatures from 45 to 80/85 degrees. Cooler temperatures may result in slower uptake and results.
