Ok I normally refuse to give out any of my witches brew secrets but this one is killing me.
apply Acclaim Extra 28oz to the acre w Triclopyr 32oz to an acre using a non ionic surfactant
start about or after spring green up of bermuda
May1st , June 1st, July 1st , August 1st for at least 2 years not missing an application
In October apply Fusilade II

I just sprayed Triclopyr (0.67 oz) and Tenacity (.5 tsp) in 2 gallons of water on about 1200 sq ft of Perennial Rye and Tall Fescue which was previously a bermuda lawn law summer...

Is that Triclopyr coming from the purple WBG?

No I bought a bottle of Monterey Turflon Ester.

Thanks, I just want to get an idea of the application rate, my calculation shows it's equal to 5 oz of CCO, for 1200 sq ft that's roughly label rate.

You can't compare application rates from one product to another directly -- I have Triclopyr at 8%, but my son has a bottle that is 64% Triclopyr. Mixing the application rates there would be a recipe for BIG trouble.

Good point, I'll edit my first post to be more specific.
The Monterey Turflon Ester is 60% Triclopyr and I guess I should say I applied 0.67 oz Turflon Ester.


I did get some subtle bleaching on some of the PR. Mostly its in areas where I had the wand really low when going around flower beds and stuff to minimize overspray....



white balance is a bit off cause I took these at dusk.
We shall see how it handles another application.

Any advice on if I should do a 3 week or 4 week application interval?
I'd lean for 3 week AI but I don't wanna over do it on the PR, however it is just temporary turf so not the end of the world.
