Monterey Turflon Ester Herbice should not be applied Centipede to kill Bermuda. We actually do not carry a product that is labeled to selectively remove Bermuda grass from Centipede turf. The only suggestion we can give is to kill the Bermuda with a glyphosate product and then re-seed the Centipede in those areas.
Monterey Turflon Ester Herbicide will kill bermudagrass as this product is for cool season turfgrass such as Perennial Bluegrass, Perennial Ryegrass, Tall Fescue Turf-grass. It would only be used on dormant bermudagrass.
No, Monterey Turflon Ester Herbicide is only a post emergent that kills actively growing weeds, it will not prevent new weeds from germinating.
To prevent kikuyugrass from germinating, we recommend treating the lawn with Dimension 2EW at the rate of 0.28 - 0.73 oz. per 1,000 sq. ft. Please review the product label for more information.
Unfortunately, Monterey Turflon Ester Herbicide is not recommended to be applied using a hose end sprayer and per the product label should be applied with a handpump sprayer. Hose end sprayers do not provide an accurate volume of water per the recommended rates per gallon of water.
If the weight of the sprayer is preventing you from using a 1 gallon hand pump sprayer, you can divide the mix rate of 4 tsp per gallon of water in half and use 2 tsp per ½ gallon of water.
Monterey Turflon Ester Herbicide is not labeled to be applied over ornamentals such as dymondia as it could harm it.
Monterey Turflon Ester Herbicide is best applied when the lawn is dry. A slight amount of dew is ok just not dripping wet. The product is labeled to control bermuda though so should not be used on desirable bermudagrass lawns.
As long as the grass is established tall fescue, perennial ryegrass, or perennial bluegrass, then it should be tolerant of Turflon Ester Herbicide when used as directed on the product label. However, if you have a newer cultivar, then we recommend testing a small area for tolerance before applying the herbicide to a larger area. Also, keep in mind that fescues will be most stressed in high heat, so we do not recommend using Turflon Ester in the summer on fescue.
Per the product label you would apply 4 teaspoons in 1 gallon water per 1,000 sq.ft. For only 32 oz of water, you would need only 1 teaspoon of Monterey Turflon Ester Herbicide.
Monterey Turflon Ester Herbicide is not labeled specifically for baby tears. They can be a rather invasive species so we recommend consulting with your local cooperative extension office Master Gardener for alternate options.
Monterey Turflon Ester Herbicide is not labeled for use in zoysia grass and can harm Zoysia. If you would like to tell us what weeds you are targeting, then we can recommend a more suitable product for you.
Yes it can, but we do recommend that you wait at least a week between applications.
Monterey Turflon Ester Herbicide does include clover as one of the broadleaf weeds it controls on the product label.

Monterey Turflon Ester Herbicide is not labeled to control bermudagrass in buffalograss. Unfortunately, because these grass species are closely related, there is nothing that will selectively remove Bermuda from desired Bahaiagrass without harm. In your situation, it is recommended to spot-treat the Bermuda as much as possible with a Roundup-type product (such as Roundup QuikPro) and then replant with the bahia in those areas when the Bermuda is gone. I hope this information is helpful.
Absolutely, you can add a turf dye such as Turf Mark Blue to the tank so you can see exactly where you have applied the product. You can see the line of spray indicators we offer here: https://www.domyown.com/spray-indicators-c-59_916_391.html
