Specifically dosed for large-scale coverage—a 40-lb bag delivers about 22,000 sq ft of protection at the 1.8 lb per 1,000 sq ft rate, making it cost-effective for sizeable landscapes. Selective protection against annual grasses and many annual broadleaf weeds while generally safe for established ornamentals when applied per label directions. How to use Apply to dry soil at the recommended rate of 1.8 lbs per 1,000 sq ft for even coverage. Use a spreader for uniform distribution in larger beds or stick to hand application for containers and small areas. Water in thoroughly after application to activate the herbicide and move it into the soil where weed seeds germinate. Avoid disturbing soil after application and don’t apply to areas you plan to seed or transplant in the near term. Reapply according to label directions with the seasons and your weed pressure, ensuring you maintain a protective barrier over time. Ideal use cases New or refreshed ornamental beds where weed pressure is high and you want long-lasting, soil-based prevention.
