    This actually works very well. I used it every year. Works best if you put on right after cutting your lawn and bagging the cluppings first. Then add a little dawn dish detergent to the new bottle as a surfactant. Shake it well then soray over your lawn. Its advisable to apply a 2nd application in 3 to 3 weeks to kill the new weeds that would have germinated. Then you would be set to get the majority of the average weeds for that particular season. All of this can also be verified from other youtube reviews of the product. My yard is the nicest on the street

    Wish I saw this video first. I did just like you demonstrated but a week later I forgot to pull the pin out first and broke off the lever. It had half left but I don't know if it concentrated weed stop inside or just water. Would be nice to know. I did get it to work by turn the left over piece on the left as it had something to grab.

    Can I refill this 32 oz spray bottle with Spectracide Concentrate (from 40 oz bottle)? How many ounces (of the concentrate) to make up this bottle? I was thinking 6 oz concentrate then add 26 oz water. Am I right?

    • @michaelhaffner4505
      @michaelhaffner4505 3 місяці тому +1

      If it's refillable then there would be no ratio of water to concentrate. The whole bottle is concentrate and the mixing happens when you turn on your hose. So just fill the bottle up and resume spraying.

    • @Bluebloods7
      @Bluebloods7 11 місяців тому +3

      This doesn't need to be watered in; it works by coating the surface area of the plant (leaves, stems, seed heads, flowers, etc.), so the bigger and healthier the weed is, the better the product will work. Also, apply it when there's no rain in the forecast for 24-48 hours and the temperature during the day is going to be 80+ - these conditions are perfect for uptake into most targeted weed plants as they thrive in heat, increasing uptake to compensate for lack of water in dry spells + heat stress scenarios. This is why when our lawns go into dormancy, the weeds still grow, grow, grow away! And back on point; if you watered this product in, you'd just be washing it off the leaves and plant bodies, down to the soil, where it would have minimal effect. If this were a pre-emergent however, that would be when you'd want to water it in; getting the pre-emergent down to the soil allows the product to create the barrier that prevents germination of weed seed to begin with.

    Does the level of liquid in the bottle lower as you apply it to the lawn?
    I just sprayed about 4000 SW ft and the level is still at about 30 oz.
    Some of the product dripped onto my hand while applying. It is brown and smells like dead fish. When I smell the water coming out of the nozzle, it just smells like water.

      @The Glamourous One Wow, that was unnecessary.
      To answer the question, though: I don't see why not. You should be able to use the bottle and sprayer a few times with whatever liquid you would like to spray. I'm sure its fairly cheaply made since it is meant for a single use, but I imagine it would last for a few different bottle-fulls.

    This stuff works ok for broadleaf weeds but it does nothing for full grown crabgrass, even a heavy dose did absolutely nothing. Not only didn’t it kill the crabgrass but the crabgrass didn’t even look stressed at all.

    • @BudgetLawns
      @BudgetLawns 5 років тому +5

      Yeah, full grown crabgrass is a booger to knock out. You really got to hit it early in the season. I used this product this Spring for the first time and had really good results on the baby crabgrass. I also threw down the granular Weed Stop for Laws Plus Crabgrass Preventer, and it significantly helped reduce the amount I've seen in my lawn compared to years past. Best part about all this was the price. For what I got out of the $5 I spent for this product during Lowes' Spring Black Friday, it was well worth it. I'd use again! Of course I'm all about price! You get what you pay for and surprisingly with this one, you get more than expected.

    This video reminds me of a video I saw once about how to pour sand out of your boots. If you have to explain how to use this product to someone it might just be a good idea for them to leave it to someone else to do the job or maybe for them you should include do not drink the left over liquid once spraying is complete. I mean if they can't figure out how to use this you just never know what they might do.

I have done this to my bermuda grass to kill mainly henbit and id did nothing to any weed. Not even yellowishing!!! I am so fricking mad, tired to use chemicals that are very dangerous to our health and not to get any result. I am selling the house, otherwise, I would take all the grass out and plant fruits and vegetables! Who needs so much grass anyway???

    • @Bluebloods7
      @Bluebloods7 11 місяців тому

      Yes, very frustrating to see the clear, concise video up until the point of showing the demonstration of application being done all wrong. Also, the henbit issue is a bit tricky; it produces LOTS of seed, so control of henbit is best done in a 2-step scenario where you spray the henbit with the product in this video, or regular Spectrazide weed stop for lawns, or Ortho weed clear for lawns, among others. Spray before the flowering stage of the plant for best results. Then, twice a year work on thickening the problem areas where the henbit likes to take hold (likely damp and shaded areas), low lying under trees typically, to help strengthen and thicken the turf grasses so that the henbit will be "choked out" so to speak. This is obviously the same method used to control anything undesirable from growing in your lawn, but for the weeds that are particularly tenacious, it really takes a 2-step approach to see the best results. Just spraying and praying will typically lead to frustration.
