    Q
    How long after spraying Drive XLR8 Herbicide can I fertilize?
    I sprayed yesterday and my next fertilizing app is scheduled for tomorrow.
    A

    There is not a specific amount of time you need to wait to apply your fertilizer after applying Drive XLR8 Herbicide. Since Drive works best when it has at least 24 hours to dry after application, then waiting at least 1 day before watering or applying a liquid fertilizer would be advantageous.
