early Fall. Avoid contact with desirable shrubs, plants, vegetables, or flowers; especia~y w~n applying with a rotary (spinner) type spreader. Do not reseed for at least 3 to 4 weeks after application. Do noL apply to newly seeded or sodded lawn until after 3 mowings. For optimum results (1) Avoid mowing 1 to 2 days before and after application; (2) Apply when grass is moist (after a rain, sprinklingpr dew); (3) Avoid unnecessary disturbances, including watering of treated areas for 48 hours after application. WaLering will wa~ off weed killing material; and (4) Avoid applying if rainfall is expe~ed within 48 hours following treatment. possible retreatment in approximately 30 days may be necessary if lawn is heavily overrun with weeds or if adverse low moisture conditions prevail and weeds are in a state of poor growth. Do not exceed recommended rates because damage to turf may occur.

NOTE: When applying to Southern Grasses - under conditions of inadequate moisture, hIgh temperature and high humidity, over-application may cause minor transitory discoloration on Centipede and St. Augustine grasses. It is recommended that during hot, dry conditions, application rates should be reduced 50% to avoid possible dehydration or browning of grass.

( )W TO APPLY: This 20 pound (or 18 pound) bag should be used on 5,000 square feet. Apply ~venly with a lawn spreader as a one p~ss application. A two pass application, criss-

(, rossing the area at half the rate each time is also acceptable.

The following settings are approximate for applying contents of this package at a suggested rate of 4 pounds (3.6 pounds for 18# bag) per 1,000 square feet. Settings are based on an average walking speed. Reduce settings for slower speed; raise settings for higher speed. Check your spreader on 250 square feet and adjust to apply at the rate of 1 pound (.9 lb. for '18# bag) per 250 square feet.
