    Q
    What is the Scotts drop spreader setting for Prodiamine 65 WDG (Generic Barricade)?
    A

    Prodiamine 65 WDG is mixed with water and applied not dispersed with a spreader. The exact amount of water you dilute it with is not important. It is only important to make sure you are using the correct amount of product per 1,000 sq ft of lawn. Use too much and you risk damaging your lawn, use too little and you will not get adequate results. You will need to use 0.185-0.55 oz per 1,000 sq ft . 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 0.185-.055 oz of product with for each 1,000 sq ft area that needs to be treated.

    Q
    Can I overseed in the fall and the spring with fescue when I use Prodiamine 65 WDG?
    A

    Normally if you choose to use a pre-emergent you cannot seed within several months of the application. Per the Prodiamine Product Label: To reduce the potential to injure overseeded turf, wait 60 days after seeding or until after the second mowing, whichever is longer, before applying Quali-Pro Prodiamine 65 WDG.

    When to Overseed After Application (All States)* Quali-Pro Prodiamine 65 WDG will inhibit the development of turfgrass species overseeded too soon after application. Follow rates and intervals in the table below for best overseeding/reseeding results

    When used at the lowest rates, it starts at 4 months after application that you can overseed.

    Q
    Does Prodiamine 65 WDG prevent nutsedge?
    Does this prevent nutsedge from growing (yellow or purple)?
    A

    Nutsedge is a summer weed that is hard to control using a pre emergent such as Prodiamine 65 WDG (Generic Barricade).  Nutsedge is controlled after emergence in cool and warm season turf grasses such as St. Augustinegrass, Bermudagrass, Kentucky Bluegrass, tall and fine fescue, and perennial ryegrass. Sedgehammer is considered one of the more "gentle to turfgrass" products and the most widely used for controlling both yellow and purple nutsedge.
