Can i use "Chapin Wet / Dry Hose-End Sprayer #6005" to spray Prodiamine 65 WDG over 1000sqft of lawn.

If yes, could you please provide me the instruction on how much water should i mix with and what should be the sprayer setting for 1000sqft of lawn. Also can I mix this with liquid fertiziler like CoRoN 18-3-6 Plus 0.5% Fe Thanks Amit

Answer:

Prodiamine 65 WDG is a water dispersible granule and will not work well in a hose end sprayer. We recommend you use this product in a hand pump sprayer or a back sprayer.  You can tank mix with a fertilizer like the CoRon 18-3-6 Plus 0.5% Iron as long as each rate on the product labels are followed.   The first thing you need to know when using an herbicide such as Prodiamine 65 WDG is that the exact amount of water you dilute it with is not important. It is only important to make sure you are using the correct amount of product per 1,000 sq ft of lawn. Use too much and you risk damaging your lawn, use too little and you will not get adequate results. You will need to use 0.185-0.55 oz per 1,000 sq ft depending on your lawn type and length of desired control. To decide how much water you want to use, you should mark a 1,000 sq ft area, fill your sprayer with water ONLY, and start walking and spraying just as if you were doing the actual application of herbicide. When you are done walking and spraying the 1,000 sq ft area note how much water it took you to spray that area, and that is the amount you will want to mix 0.185-.055 oz of product with for each 1,000 sq ft area that needs to be treated.  Please refer the Prodiamine label to be sure of how much you will use.
