I have 2.5 acres. I will be using a 30 gallon sprayer. Please tell me how much to mix to treat my 2.5 acres. Primarily for foxtail and crabgrass. I am pulling my hair out trying to figure the correct ratio.
The mixing ratio of Q4 Plus Turf Herbicide varies with these 2 types of grasses. For Fescue the amount is 7- 8 pints per acre (2.6 to 3.0 fl oz/1000 sqft) For Bermuda you use 5-7 pints per acre (1.8 to 2.6 fl oz/1000 sqft). So for the mixture you could use the 7 pints/acre or 2.6 fl/1000 sqft As for the amount of water the label states the following and varies depending on the type of sprayer: For Conventional Spray Equipment: 50 to 220 gal/acre For Low Volume Spray Equipment: Equipment should be calibrated to apply at least 20 gallons per acre
