Apply Princep Liquid before weeds emerge or after removal of weed growth. Princep Liquid controls a wide variety of annual broadleaf and grass weeds when used at selective rates in turf and ornamental plantings.
Where a range of application rates is given, use the low rate on coarse-textured soil and soil lower in organic matter; use the high rate on fine-textured soil and soil higher in organic matter.
Since Princep Liquid enters weeds mainly through their roots, moisture is needed to move it into the root zone. Very dry soil conditions following application may necessitate shallow cultivation or rotary hoeing.
WARNING: This product can expose you to chemicals including simazine, which is known to the State of California to cause birth defects or other reproductive harm. For more information go to https://www.P65Warnings.ca.gov

Read Full Answer »One 2.5 gallon jug of Princep Liquid Herbicide can cover 5-10 acres depending on the usage (1-2 qt per acre) rate needed for your use.
If Princep was applied a year ago, you should be fine to plant or seed the area now. Generally, you would wait between 4-6 months.
