TOLERANT ORNAMENTALS
Use Precautions for Turf
This product should be applied only to lawns and ornamental turfgrasses that are well established. For newly established lawns, initial application
of this product should be made only after turfgrasses have developed a vigorous root system, uniform stand, and received at least two mowings
following seeding, sodding, or sprigging. Exception: In newly established lawns of Kentucky bluegrass, perennial ryegrass and/or tall fescue, this
product may be applied two weeks after the first sign of germination.
• Use of this product on lawns and ornamental turfgrasses that are not well established, or weakened by stress due to mechanical operations,
pests, excessive temperatures, or lack of moisture may result in turfgrass injury.
• For best results, cultural practices that disturb the soil, such as core-, spike-, or hydro-aerification, and verticutting, should be done before
application of this product. Do not apply this product until turfgrass has recovered from the mechanical injury caused by these cultural practices.
Reseeding, Overseeding, or Sprigging: Reseeding, overseeding, or sprigging of areas treated with this product within 10 weeks after a single
application of this product or within 16 weeks after a split application program totaling 4.3 lb/1000 sq ft (0.5 lb active ingredient per acre) or more
may inhibit the establishment of desirable turfgrasses. When reseeding, overseeding follow proper cultural practices for seedbed preparation,
seeding, irrigation and fertilization.
Other Use Precautions
• Do not use clippings from treated turf for mulching around vegetables or fruit trees.
• Do not allow people or pets to enter treated area until dust has settled.
APPLICATION TIMING
SPRING APPLICATION
Control of Crabgrass: This product provides preemergence control of crabgrass and control or suppression of other listed weeds when applied
prior to their germination. In addition, this product provides postemergence control of seedling crabgrass after germination and emergence.
Postemergence control is limited to crabgrass only and is effective up to 4 weeks after germination of crabgrass. This generally corresponds to
the time when crabgrass seedlings are at the 3-leaf stage of growth and first become visible in the established turf. This product will not control
crabgrass at later growth stages when crabgrass plants begin to tiller (spread). Properly timed applications will control existing crabgrass and
prevent further emergence of crabgrass seedlings. Do not apply this product later than 4 weeks after crabgrass germination.
Control or Suppression of Other Grass and Broadleaf Weeds: For control or suppression of other grass and broadleaf weeds, this product
must be applied as a preventative treatment prior to their germination and emergence. Only crabgrass will be controlled with applications made
up to 4 weeks after weed germination.
FALL APPLICATION
This product can also be applied from late summer through early fall (late August through November). When applied in the fall, a sequential or
second application of this product must be made the following spring to provide season-long control of crabgrass. If this product is applied in the
fall, do not reseed, overseed or sprig turfgrasses within 12 weeks after application.
Tips for Improved Weed Control
• For best results, apply this product within a few days after mowing and delay mowing again for a few days after the application.
• The turf herbicide in this product is not effective until activated by rainfall or irrigation. Performance is improved if application is followed by ½ inch
of rainfall or sprinkler irrigation. Erratic weed control may result if not activated by rainfall or irrigation within 30 days after application.
WEEDS CONTROLLED OR SUPPRESSED
This product will provide control of crabgrass and control or suppression of other listed grass and broadleaf weeds when applied prior their
germination.

States where this product is being applied. Refer to the map below to determine the region of the U.S. that includes your location. Use the
table below to determine the amount of this product to apply in your location based on the desired length of weed control or need for postemergence
crabgrass control.

Use the higher rate in rate range in areas of high weed pressure or for increased length of control.
Maximum Application Rates:
• Do not apply more than 4.3 lb of this product per 1,000 sq ft per application and no more than 12.9 lb of this product/1000 sq ft per year (equivalent
to 0.5 and 1.5 lb of active ingredient per acre, respectively).
• In the state of New York, do not exceed 2.1 lb per 1000 sq ft per year of this product (equivalent to 0.25 lb of active ingredient per acre).
APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS AND EQUIPMENT
This product may be applied with drop or rotary-type spreaders designed to apply granular herbicides. For best results, apply this product evenly
and uniformly avoiding streaking, skips or overlaps. Avoid the use of spreaders that tend to apply granules in narrow rows or concentrated bands.
Calibrate the spreader according to the manufacturer’s directions. Initial spreader settings may require adjustment to deliver the recommended
application rate under actual application conditions. The desired calibration setting may be marked or recorded for future reference. Apply this
product uniformly over the treatment area. More uniformity of application can usually be achieved by applying one-half of the required amount of
product over the treatment area and then applying the remaining one-half in a different direction (e.g., at a right angle to the previous direction).
Avoid streaking, skips, or overlaps during application.
Check equipment frequently to verify calibration and proper functioning.

USE PRECAUTIONS
Apply this product only to established ornamentals.
• Do not incorporate this product into soil. Dilution of active ingredient and possible injury to plant roots may occur.
• Do not apply to soil around ornamental plants that are under stress due to drought, flooding, excessive fertilizer or soil salts, wind injury, hail, frost
damage, winter injury, injury from previously applied pesticides or injury due to insects, nematoedes or disease.
• To avoid foliar damage to ornamentals, irrigate immediately after application to remove herbicide particles from the foliage.
• Do not apply under conditions that would affect product distribution. Wind could affect distribution and move product onto sensitive species.
Uneven product distribution will result in uneven weed control.
• Do not apply another herbicide within 4 weeks of application of this product.
• Do not apply this product to bare roots of ornamental plants as injury may result. Following transplanting, care must be taken that soil or planting
mixes have settled firmly through irrigation, rainfall or packing and that there are no cracks that would allow direct contact of this product to the
plant roots or plant injury may occur.
Treatment of Ornamental species not listed on this label:
It is impossible to evaluate tolerance to this product on all ornamental species or varieties or under all growing condition. Users who wish to use
this product on species not listed on this label may determine the suitability for use by treating a small number of plants at a specified rate under
your growing conditions. Treated plants should be observed for any symptoms of herbicidal injury such as foliar damage, reduced vigor or stand
reduction during 30 to 60 days of normal growing conditions to determine if the treatment is non-injurious.
WEEDS CONTROLLED OR SUPPRESSED
Used as directed, this product will control crabgrass and control or suppress other listed grass and broadleaf weeds when applied prior to their germination. Refer to “Use
Directions for Turf” section for a complete listing of weeds controlled or suppressed. This product will not control established broadleaf weeds or grasses, except for
crabgrass in early stages of development. The area to be treated should be free of weeds prior to application.

APPLICATION TIMING AND RECOMMENDATIONS
This product is a preemergence herbicide that will not control established weeds. Make applications prior to weed seed germination. Bare ground or
mulched areas may be treated. The best weed control is obtained when applied to soil that is free of clods, weeds and debris such as leaves. Prior
to making an application, control existing vegetation by hand weeding, cultivation or with a postemergence herbicide. Avoid disturbance of treated
areas. Loss of weed control may result if the treated soil surface is disturbed by soil mixing or tillage.
The Ornamentals listed below have shown tolerance to this product when applied according to label directions.
