The application rate for Dismiss Turf Herbicide will depend on your grass type. The rate for cool seasons grasses is 0.092-0.18 fl oz per 1,000 sq ft or 4-8 oz per acre and 0.18-0.275 fl oz per 1,000 sq ft or 8-12 oz per acre for warm season grasses.
In order to determine the amount of water you will need to use in your 100 gal tank you will need to mark off a 1,000 sq ft area and go over that area with just water. You will then need to do the math to determine how much water will cover your entire area you are planning to treat and determine the amount of product used for your grass type. For example, if it takes 2 gallons of water to cover 1,000 sq ft and you have a cool season grass and you are planning to treat 5,000 sq ft you will need to use 0.46-0.9 fl oz in 10 gallons of water to cover the entire 5,000 sq ft.
Dismiss Turf Herbicide comes in a bottle that contains 6.0 ounces of concentrate, which will cover 0.5 to 1.25 acres, depending on the weeds you are treating and the turf. Many professional herbicides will come in a size that will cover an average of one Acre (43,560 sq ft). It is important to keep in mind that your water is just a carrier, and how much water is needed to get uniform coverage will vary with your equipment and the speed at which it is moving. Therefore, it is hard to estimate exactly how many gallons of water will be used when you are covering a large area. You can break down the rate of 4-12 ounces per Acre to 0.092 to 0.275 ounces per 1,000 square feet, using adequate water to get thorough coverage of the area using your equipment.
Dismiss Herbicide will control more weed species than the Prosedge, however it may be easier to use a product like Prosedge if you only have a small area to cover.
