Excellent information. This is exactly what I was looking for. It was very helpful how you measured out 500 square feet and did a test run with the sprayer.
Very useful information! I've been thinking about getting this product although it is expensive. I am in Texas. What is the exact month to apply in the spring and fall?
It changes based on where you are. Go to greencast online and look up your soil temps. Find out when it drops in the fall to 70 and 55 degrees. Also, find out in the spring when it hits 55, then 70 degrees. When the soil temps hit those markers for at least 3 to 5 days, that would be the perfect time to apply. Look at the 5 year historic average.
@TheALG Does it matter if the soil temperature is between 55 and 70 in September, October, or November? What month is best if the temperature range is between 55 and 70 during those months?
I don't know Texas weather. The soil temps are a good guide regardless of where you live. An example, my fall application goes down when soil temps hit 70 around mid to late Sept and second application around early November when soil temps drop to 55. I can't recommend you put yours down in let's say sept because I don't know when your soil temps drop to 70. Once you get a good idea of when you hit the right soil temps, you can then apply at the right months moving forward. My preemergent application timing is for north GA. Hope this makes sense
I dropped the money on this and yes the dosage directions are confusing. I took a chance and ended up destroying my lawn. Lesson learned. Great video but I would use something more DYI friendly.
I bought a 4 gallon battery pump to treat with Dimension. If I am treating roughly 2200 square feet 4 gallons is way too big correct? I figure 2 gallons should be enough for my lawn. I am asking because I can still return it for a smaller one since it hasn't been used.
Practice walking with plain water and see how much you can put out walking at a comfortable speed. Whatever amount you calculate, just fill enough water to spray over your yard. I would still keep the sprayer because battery is the way to go, and it doesn't hurt to have a 4 gallon.
I notice your shirt says DEFUND, and I also took notice that you never have a wider shot that shows what it might say under DEFUND? Obviously you wore that particular shirt to send your message? What are you trying to say?
Just an FYI. Fluid oz. are not equal to mass oz. Unless density of liquid is 1 gram/ml. Dimension 2EW is dissolved in diethyl ether and petroleum distillates so scale is inaccurate. Use a measuring cup with fluid oz. For better accuracy.
You def need a battery power backpack sprayer. I got the ryobi one it has plenty of psi for this types of applications also the spray fan Is more and even coverage than manuals. I finished my 5000 sq ft in less than 10 min.
@@TheALG I have the newer Ryobi with the adjustable pressure i used it to put out a 5 mth protection of Prodiamine 65wdg in Feb.. you won't regret it .. I already had the 18v batteries .. was like 120 at Home depot .. Enjoy the content, down to earth and very through explanations
@@chipgunter sounds like I should trade the one I have for that one. I'm planning on putting carbon g liquid and liquid fertilizer and bio stimulant bi weekly so an electric sprayer is a must for this season.

Flowzone backpack sprayer will save your arm lol. Nice video. You could spray your yard in 10 mins
Doing my arm workout lol. I will consider a battery sprayer soon

@TheALG It helps, thank you. I've never done pre emergents for they reason I am afraid I'll get it wrong and this stuff isn't cheap.
@arielstereo5484 if you have never done preemergents I would go basic granular to start off. It's way easier to apply.
Thanks for sharing.

Came from the gun range that day. Defund gun control shirt. I did cut as much of the shirt as I can.

Thanks for sharing, I know there is a small like a 0.04 difference but you are right a measurement cup with fl oz would be more accurate.

I will make it a priority to get one

Thanks for sharing. I will do some research but I am looking at adjustable psi, maybe up to 60 psi or so.
Flowzone is one of the best but for the money this one has performed well
