Q

What is the correct mix ratio of Solitare WSL for my backpack sprayer?
I have centipede lawn in south Georgia. Please give me correct amount and how heavy do I soak the weed?

If you are applying to centipede grass, you will need to use 4-7.9 fl oz of Solitaire WSL per 1,000 sq ft depending on what type(s) of weeds you are targeting. Per the product label you will use the higher rate for harder-to-control weeds and dense weed populations. The amount of water need to cover the area can vary. The best thing to do is to mark off a 100 X 10 ft area and apply plain water (walking and spraying at your pace and that of your equipment). You will usually apply 1-2 gallons of water over a 1000 sq. ft. area, depending on density of your soil, grass, equipment, etc. The water is just the carrier of the product. Once the water dissipates, what will matter is the amount of product in that size area uniformly for an even coverage. The label states to aim for the center of the weeds being treated and to "lightly spray." You will want to get them wet but not dripping.

Before treating Emerald Zoysia, it’s recommended to do a patch test first. Ensure the patch of your lawn you plan to treat is in healthy condition, use the lower rate, make only one pass, and do not add any surfactant. If the treated patch shows no signs of stress, you can treat the rest of the lawn, following the same method you used for the patch test.
