One of the most important thing to know is before mixing ANY Herbicide is the ph level of your water ! Ours around here is high about 8ish and most herbicide need a ph level of 6ish ( read label ) . If ph is high as soon as you add your herbicide it will lose a lot of its potency and gets lower each hour it sits in tank ! Many ways to lower ph level but using distilled vinegar is cheap and works very well ! It takes 1/2 once per gallon for my area .

Hi dahinojos. The actual limit is .83 for warm season grass. I just say .80 in the video to make the math easier for viewers to follow. If you go over the annual limit, the herbicide can become toxic for the grass. There's really no reason to go over the max rate.

Almost all of the Prodiamine 65 WDG products instruct us to use 0.183oz (5.2g) per 1000 sq.ft. If doing 4000 sq. ft., then that is 4 gallons with 0.732oz (20.8g) of Prodiamine. In this video, you used. 3.2oz of Prodiamine with 4 gallons. I'm super confused as to why you did that. Can you explain and help me? Thank you!
@RonHenry2 жыл бұрын
Sure Michael. The .183 rate is really for cool season grass where the annual limit is .55 oz. per 1000 square feet. Using that rate assumes you're doing to do multiple applications. For Bermuda the annual limit is .83 oz. per 1000 square feet. I don't split applications which and also alternate pre-emergents between spring and fall. That's the reason for the higher rate. Again, .83 is for warm season grass like Bermuda and Zoysia. Hope this helps.

Great question dribeker. I imagine the label likely specifies a lighter rate to provide a buffer because most people are heavy handed. If you do the math on the bottle coverage (6000 square feet) and divide that by the amount of fluid ounces in the bottle (24) you come up with 4 ounces per 1k; not 2.5. Make sense?

@@RonHenry yes. After watching some vids on your channel, I just ordered pre emergent and the image. The image does indeed read on the label for a large area application, you need .8 ounces per 200 sq ft. .8x5 ( to equal 1,000 sq ft) is where you got 4 ounces per 1,000.

Hi Sean. If your goal is to apply Prodiamine at half rate, then you’ll need to mix 1.60 ounces of Prodiamine with 4 gallons of water and spray that over 4000 square feet. If you spray the 4 gallons over more than 4000 square feet, you won’t be applying the pre-emergent at the .40 per 1k rate. It will be less than that. If you have pre-emergent left over after walking 4000 square feet then you’re walking too quickly. I would either slow down your walking pace or make another pass over the same area with what’s left in the sprayer until it’s empty. Make sense?
