I have about a half acre with LOTS of nimplewill and jewgrass. Will the 8 oz do the entire yard? I see nothing in the desc. about how much it makes.

Yes no problem. It needs to be applied 0.69 teaspoons/1000 square ft. Also you will need use 1-2 teaspoons of a surfactant/dawn dish detergent per gallon of water to help tenacity stick to grass/weed

I used it for spots of "bentgrass" and it killed it. Unfortunately I sprayed in the fall, I know it killed it, but I'm away and can't say how it is now. Asto area I would say at the mix amounts in directions 8 oz should do the job with some left.

You can spray the whole yard but I applied it to the weeds I wanted to kill. It may take a couple applications too so you don't want to spray it where it's not needed.

It killed mine in the southeast region. It kills a lot of weeds, but not the grass. My grass looks great as it is able to fill in without all the weeds taking over. It even appears to be more green after usage. 1 bottle has lasted me 2 summers so far. Great product! I will buy again!

One gallon will do up to one acre effeciently I have found. Otherwise its spreaded too thin for thicker weeds and brush

I don't know about the affects on a yucca or use of full strength but I can tell you that in a slightly more concentrated ratio than recommended, it obliterated everything it touched. I would try 50/50 first before going with full strength anywhere. Note, it was the only thing that completed killed the creeping weeds I was trying to kill but I lost a lot of lawn as collateral damage. Now the lawn is back and the weeds are not.

I use about 1 jug per acre. Half as broad spray which uses more and half as spot treatment which is more efficient but involves more work. Hope this helps.

Depends on temperature and what your target weeds are. Read the fold out on the container. It's pretty explicit. but, don't expect this stuff to work. It used to be a wonderful product but something, I suspect the EPA, happened to it.

I spot sprayed the weeds in my lawn and did not make a general application. The label says that you can do this and it is effective where you have widely spaced weeds. In areas where I had crab grass I used a more general application. The product works very well with holistic weeds and does not seem to harm the desired turfgrasses.

have tried this 2x. did not kill entire yard, seeds took temporarily. the grass later died or diapeared & the weeds came back or a bald spot appeared. in other sections of yard had almost 1/2 yard cleared, all that hapened after temp.growth was the ST AUGUSTINE & BERMUDA pushed out new grass. my guess is that your yard has 2 be as bald as the MOON!

Jerry read the instructions booklet attached to the container, all applications (target foliage) require different mixes to destroy, its like 1.5 oz. to a gallon of water+ a quart of surfacant (cide kick) per acre for some aqua plants. Be careful or you may destroy your aquatic life as well as weeds. 2.5 gallons is gonna last a real long time as that amount just may be enough to treat Lake Erie. RAMC

Oh no. Not unless your tree trunks are 128" in circumference. That is how many ounces you will have in your gallon container. Wait for a day when it has completely finished raining, at least an inch of rain, so the ground is damp and your tree roots are primed to soak this expensive stuff into its system. I like to wait until the little tree leaves just start to grow fast in early/mid May in my area. October works but you will have to research the timing of this on line. Get out a measuring tape and measure the circumference of your tree trunk 40" up from the ground. Check the label directions to see which formula you have. Regular formula Bayer will state to use 1 oz of liquid per inch of circumference. Landscapers formula is concentrated so use 1/2 ounce per inch of trunk girth. Find a liquid measuring cup with the ounce measurements on it. (Never use it for food again no matter how much you wash it.) I got a 32 ounce (quart size) at a local farm store and marked it for pesticides only. Pour the measured ounces into a large bucket and add 2 more gallons of water. Be sure to rake away debris or mulch within a 16" perimeter around the base of the tree trunk. Bare soil is best. Pour slowly no farther than 8" away from the trunk all the way around. If your tree is suffering, it will look bad during the summer and need till the next year before you see recovery. I understand 50% loss of tree leaf canopy is usually the limit though. Now, saying all that, I have been told to save your money and to not start treatment until the Emerald Ash Borer is within 15 miles of your trees. Not sure? Type in EAB infestation for your state and you should find a county by county map infestation graph. How long to treat? You will to do this once annually until the EAB on the infestation map disappears. It is worth saving these trees Martha. We are in it for the long haul.

I have only really used the spray portion on the weeds. Hard to guess how high it would spray. Depends on how direct or wide your spray is I guess.

This is a little hard to explain. Because it is based on your dilution rate with water versus what plants (weeds) you are going after.I mix at 2oz per gallon of water and use a 26 gallon sprayer for spot spraying our flowerbeds and the road ditches.Check this out for more info www.monsanto.com/sitecollectiondocuments/ito/2009%20herbicide%20handbook%20%282%29.pdfHope this helps

If it were me, I would look at the drop door & measure the distance of openness between your Scotts spreader. But I don't have a Scotts, so any time I use a unknow spreader & I am trying to spread 15,000 square feet of land, I will opt for the low end of the scale no matter what size the granules are. Then I can at least hit all of my grass, & if I have more left, I just gauge what it left & do a repeat appplication, The next time, I would adjust the spreader so it puts out a tad more fertilizer.I would rather under fertilize, then do a over-kill & burn out the whole lawn!

If you mix it according to the instructions it only makes 8 gallons since it is only 2 oz. I use less than the instructions, about 1/4 the amount, it seems to work pretty good.

I have used it on bermuda grass and just about every other weed and it works well. I do cheat a little and make it double the strength recommended. This allows me to spray the weed just a little (half or so of the weed) and it will die. While it works well on weeds it will also kill anything that gets sprayed. If you get some spray on a plant you need to wash it off or cut the leaf off.

Yes. I teaspoon per gallon of water. Also add 1 teaspoon of a surfactant like Bonide 097 Turbo Spreader to help it stick to the weeds. When you spray it, hit the weeds very lightly with each treatment. No need to soak them. Tenacity works great. I used it last year on the nimblewill in our yard.
