    Q
    Does Trimec Southern Broadleaf Herbicide kill flowers as well as weeds?
    A

    Yes, Trimec Southern Broadleaf Herbicide will control almost any broadleaf plant it is sprayed on including flowers. Flowers are not listed as a target plant on the label but it would harm any that it gets on. Try to keep sprays very directed when treating for weeds near flower bed areas and apply when there is no wind for less chance of spray drift.

    Q
    I need to know the rate for a 1.4 acre lawn. how much per 25 gallons. Also when is the best time to use
    A
    For broadleaf control, you would mix 0.75 oz Trimec Southern Broadleaf Herbicide 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. The application time varies from region to region. You do want to make sure that the weeds you are treating, are actively growing before application.

  • Asked by Fowler from Florence, Sc
    07/26/2014
    Q
    What rate would you use when spraying a lawn with a hose sprayer using Trimec Southern Broadleaf Herbicide?
    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.
