    Q
    I have a 1.5 acre yard in the country. What is a good post emergent weed product?
    Weeds are terrible this year, you name it, I got it I think.
    A

    One of our most popular general weed control product that is post emergent is the Trimec Southern Broadleaf Herbicide. Trimec Southern is labeled for just about any weed you could have and will not harm your grass.  Best of all, it comes with a surfactant already mixed in the product so you do not have to purchase and mix a surfactant separately like you do with most of the other herbicides that we sell.

  • Asked by John from Dallas, Texas

    Q
    How much trimec southern for a 5 gallon backpack sprayer to spray weeds in bermuda grass?
    A
    For broadleaf control, you would mix 0.75 oz per 1,000 square feet on Bermuda turf. The amount of water is not as important as making sure to apply the solution uniformily over the 1,000 square foot section. Most herbicide labels will list how much active ingredient should be used per 1,000 square feet. To calibrate your equipment, for example, mark off an area of 1,000 square feet, and cover that area at your normal pace as evenly as possible. If you used an entire gallon, you would use the recommended amount in 1 gallon of water. If you only use ½ gallon to cover the 1000 square feet then you mix the recommended amount on the product label in a 1/2 gallon of water.

    Q
    Do I use a hose end sprayer or a container sprayer?
    Do I use a hose end sprayer or a container where I add the product with water in order to apply Trimec Southern?
    A
    It is recommended to use a hand held or backpack pump sprayer to apply to herbicides like Trimec Broadleaf Herbicide. The problem with using the hose end sprayer for herbicide applications is that they are not very accurate and you can wind up dispensing more/less product than needed in a given area which can lead to less than desirable results.

    I don't see that info on the label I have 7,400 sq feet to cover but don't know what size bottle to buy.
    A

    How much of the Trimec Southern you use is dependent on your grass type and is found on the product label as amounts per 1000 sqft not not per gallon.

    For Bermudagrass and Bentgrass: 0.75 fl oz per 1000 sqft.

    For Bluegrass, Fescues and Zoysiagrass: 0.75 to 1.1 fl oz per 1000 sqft

    For St. Augustinegrass and Centipedegrass: 0.37 to 0.55 per 1000 sqft

    The amount of water is not as important as making sure to apply the solution uniformily over the 1,000 square foot section.

    Q
    When can livestock, in our case horses, be put back on to pasture treated with Trimec Southern?
    Need to eliminate white clover and chickweed in a 5 acre pasture we rely on for summer grazing. need to have horses on it by mid-may. Live in central Indiana.
    A

    We would not recommend using Trimec Southern Broadleaf Herbicide in an area where animals will be grazing. If it has already been used, the animals should not be placed in the area for an entire grazing season.

     

    We would recommend using Martins Clear Pasture. There are no grazing restrictions except in lactating dairy animals.
