How do I use Solitaire to spot spray my lawn for broadleaf weeds?

I am doing spot spraying in the lawn agains clover and other broadleafs weeds. Couldn't find right solution - how much have to mix for right concentration. I mix 50grams(about 2ounces) per 10l(about 2.2gallon) water for spraying with backpack sprayer. Do I mix too much, or it is a good rate, or not enough? Hard to understand real rate for spot spraying. Please suggest, for next time is it fine rate or need to change it?

Answer:

You will need to use .367 - .735 oz of product per 1,000 sq feet. The exact amount of water use will nto be important. As long as the amount of active ingredient is spread equally over that area the amount of water is not important.  To calibrate your equipment, for example, a 1 gallon sprayer, mark off an area of 1,000 square feet, and cover that area at your normal pace as evenly as possible. If you used the entire gallon, you would use the recommended amount of product in 1 gallon of water.
