I bought the old scotts concentrate (4%), add a surfactant, and I use it to the instructions on the fiesta bottle and dilute accordingly factoring in the different concentrations of the two concentrates. Effectively I end up with the same amount of iron (FeHEDTA) on my lawn as I would have if I used Fiesta. I found the same results as you did with Fiesta. I'd still give a nut for some 2,4-D. Thanks for the comparison! Edit: FYI for anyone reading the new Scotts MAX is reduced in concentration by about half from the regular stuff but they only decreased the price by about 33%. They basically watered it down and wrote "max" on the bottle so you didn't know they were screwing you.

Awesome comment btw! Thanks for taking the time. I know when it comes to our weed control in Canada it’s definitely a hurting issue to say the least lol So I actually went out and bought 8oz of tenacity to deal with my yard, I think after applying the tenacity, the fiesta will be able to manage what is left over….but I’ll obviously be using tenacity until it’s gone lol

@@aaronb1130 you can’t actually buy tenacity in Ontario, it’s a prohibited herbicide unless you are licensed. That being said you can order it online but it doesn’t always make it over the border because it gets seized so more less it’s order at your own risk.

We are going to try a brand new backpack sprayer (holds 15 litres of liquid) along with a 4 litre jug of Fiesta that we purchased last week. Live on a new rural property where we just threw down grass seed and clover a couple years ago... Had the Weed Man come to give me an estimate to weed kill our lawn which covers approx 1 acre ( I actually measured the grassy (weedy) area at 37,000 sq ft.). Figure with the backpack sprayer we should just do spot spraying on the weeds around the lot. Going to try mixing 10 litres of water with 14 oz of Fiesta... hope my calculations are correct for the mixture. I keep hearing about mixing in Dawn (blue) dish soap to use as a surfactant... Do you have any idea how much dish soap you would mix into a 10-15 litre backpack tank???

Fiesta is cheaper. If you look at the Scott’s label inside the folded instructions it actually has the the Nuedorff emblem (maker of Fiesta). Sold at FS stores in Ontario without a licence. You can mix it heavier or lighter depending on the weeds you wish to “control” not kill.

You can get tenacity in Canada but here in Ontario it is illegal to apply unless you have a license. So if you do find a place to get it tread lightly and be cautious with where you have it shipped to etc. Glad you enjoyed the video!

@@joe_ferreira to be 100% honest, I don’t even really care if it is a leak ( not sure if it is ) but for the cost of backpack sprayers these days I can’t complain, it easy to use and doesn’t take any effort out of the box! I am looking for a new sprayer myself but not because I got wet lol…only because I don’t like mixing curtain products in the same sprayer.

​@@BackwoodsLawnCare I've damaged Charlie with a heavy dose of Weed B Gon, but it came back. I have minor creeping Charlie, as in 5 broad leaves. Most of it is on the neighbors. I just sprayed with Fiesta 30 hours ago. After a few applications of Weed B Gon, I had developed a style. Establish lots of grass. Mow and then spray. Make sure it is warm to hot, but not real hot. So like I said, its been 30 hours and the clover is light brown and translucent. The dandelions are dark purple and very hard to find. I'm mowing every two days by cutting 30%. The grass is fertilized and growing like crazy. It will finish crowding out the weeds. I used 420ml in 10L of water to cover 80 square meters. No surfactant.
