Is it ok to put down after a rain?

Yes, though I’d I personally wait until the surface of the weeds are for the most part dry, and not sopping wet.

Ok. Thanks Craw

What temperature should we start making the switch to Celsius? I don’t think I’ll need another app for a while and if I’m going to mix up another Cleggs one I’ll need to go buy more atrazine.

ronk would know best but I usually make the transition to Celsius and/or metsulfuron methyl when Virginia Buttonweed begins to emerge in my lawn, which in my experience in BR is late April - but I’m not implying you can’t start using Celsius effectively earlier.

April’ish.

What is the cocktail if I were buying from HD? Giftcards. Might as well use it

You’ll need to go to a garden center to buy these - HD or Lowe’s won’t have them.

Craw, with the cocktail, do you mix it in 1 or 2 gallons of water?

This what I do - if I do a whole lawn or large area spray I mix it in 2 gallon of water, with my sprayer and my walking pace, 2 gallons covers 1000 sq ft. Now if I spot spray individual weeds or smaller lumps of weeds, I mix the same dose of herbicides in 1 gal of water. That has worked for me for killing the weeds with no negative repercussions on the lawn.

this is what I usually do with it.Posted on 2/9/21 at 6:14 pm to OysterPoBoy
My normal rotation might read something like this: MCPP, MCPA, and Dicamba December, January, and February. Certainty and Atrazine spot treated on poa and rescue grass. I stop that once bermuda greens up or April 15th. Whichever comes first. March-April I would use MSM. May-November usually Celsius. It doesn't work as well in November but it still works.

When applying this, do I need to soak the weed down to the root or is a mist that just wets the leaves good enough? Also I’m assuming now is a good time to apply here in Houston?

It’s a coating. Not too little, not too much. Normal walking speed and start right before the weed and stop spraying after. Hold the nozzle at knee height.

Ronk don’t mix this in a pull behind tank sprayer and spray entire yard? This is a spot spray thing?
Posted on 2/10/21 at 11:49 am to Purpleblooded
It says apply uniformly over entire yard

Both - you can spray over the entire yard as specified on the instructions or spot spray individual weeds.
