    I am in full agreement with your comment about the fact that these weed killers DON'T show results in 1-2 days! I also agree that these products may need a second dose on the weeds to knock them out. I have had the same experience. Thanks for sharing!

That same morning, everything was totally fine, he ate breakfast, went to my room, he was playing and in a blind of an aye he just felt down and that was all. I couldn't do anything, his heart fail him. He was a loyal soul, always after us. He was love for all, he was our gentle giant. Always is going to be in our hearts.

    Question: What if I am applying Weed Stop granule version in summer? My lawn isn't dewy during the morning. Also, if I am applying the granule version, do I need to water my grass after applying?
    I am using Scotts Wizz Spreader. What setting should set in my spreader? I have 5500 sq ft. (backyard, front yard and side yard ). My lawn has lot of brown patches and it's still recovering. I applied Disease Ex few days ago to treat my lawn. Would like to know if I can apply Weed Stop granule version.

    • @LawnAmateur
      @LawnAmateur  5 месяцев назад +1

      Thank you for your support. If you want to use it as a weed killer, it needs to be applied to a wet lawn but if you want to use it as a pre emergent water it in after to spread it down. You can use this any time of the season. I would try setting 4 to 4 1/2 on the scott Wizz spreader. I hope this information helped.
