APPLICATION RESTRICTIONS AND PRECAUTIONS

• For best results, apply to weeds when less than 3 inches high. Wait at least 4 weeks after treatment before reseeding, winter overseeding or plugging lawns.
• Use only on well established non-stressed turfgrass. Applications to stressed plants (turfgrass or target weeds) may result in temporary discoloration or poor weed control. Allow turfgrass to develop good root system before applying.
• If discoloration occurs, treated turfgrass will recover with new growth and discolored leaf tissue will be removed with mowing. To reduce potential for discoloration, do not apply Ferti-lome Weed-Out Nutsedge Control on turfgrass that is weakened by weather, mechanical, chemical, disease or other related stress. Maintain proper cultural practices such as adequate moisture and fertility levels to promote healthy turfgrass growth.
• Avoid applying when windy to prevent product drifting to other plants. Try to avoid overlap spraying.
