Per the product label: For removal of Poa Annua in warm season grasses you use 0.068 fl oz per 1000 sqft if you are not mixing with Urea or 0.023 to 0.034 fl oz per 1000 sqft if you are. To decide how much water you want to use, you should mark a 1,000 sq ft area, fill your sprayer with water ONLY, and start walking and spraying just as if you were doing the actual application of herbicide. When you are done walking and spraying the 1,000 sq ft area note how much water it took you to spray that area, and that is the amount you will want to mix the amount of product needed for each 1,000 sq ft area that needs to be treated. -

Read Full Answer »Katana Turf Herbicide states that cool season grasses such as Kentucky are sensative to this product. If you lawn is already senstive, it is best to not apply. Since poa annua and cool season grasses are so closely related, there are no real products to remove it that would not also harm the desirable cool season turfgrass.  Your only real  option would be to spot-treat with a Roundup-type product and then reseed with the desirable grass type in those areas. You can use a pre-emergent like Dimension 2EW in the spring, or Pendulum 2G in the fall if you are not overseeding to help prevent the poa from emerging. -
