The mixing rate of Trimec Southern Broadleaf Herbicide for centipede grass is 0.37-0.55 fl oz per gallon of water.
Trimec Southern Broadleaf Herbicide should not be applied to newly seeded turf until after the second or third mowing. It can be used either as a broadcast or spot spray. 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 uniformly 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 same rate applies for spot treating and broadcast applications. We will say that generally 1 gallon covers 1000 sq. ft., so minimum you would mix 0.75 oz in 1 gallon of water for spot treatment
