    Q & A<\/h2>\n
    \n
    \n

    How do I get the best results?
    \n<\/strong><\/em>It\u2019s actually really easy, apply at the recommended rate. For small or glossy weeds, the addition of a surfactant such as Wet-Out will allow for better sticking and penetration.<\/p>\n

    How much water should I apply to water in?
    \n<\/strong><\/em>Watering-in or rainfall is not recommended within a few days of application.<\/p>\n

    Is this safe for all turf types?
    \n<\/strong><\/em>It is safe for many turf types, including Buffalo lawns. Please read the label directions before applying.<\/p>\n

    How long before I see results?
    \n<\/strong><\/em>Results are generally pretty fast, with symptoms from the MCPA (leaf curling) generally evident within 3-4 days. A total kill will take between 7-14 days dependent on weather conditions.<\/p>\n

    Is it safe on my Sir Walter lawn?
    \n<\/strong><\/em>Yes, Sir Walter is a Buffalo Grass and Bow & Arrow herbicide is not harmful to Buffalo Lawns.<\/p>\n

    Will I see any discolouration to my turf?
    \n<\/strong><\/em>In some grasses with low salt tolerance, like kikuyu grass, you may see some slight yellowing (phytotoxicity). If this occurs simply give the lawn a feed and it will grow out.<\/p>\n

    Is it better to add some fertiliser to make a weed and feed product?
    \n<\/strong><\/em>An application of fertiliser should not be done at the same time as applying a herbicide. Herbicides should be applied in June\/July when weeds are actively growing but have not yet gone to seed. Allowing them to seed means more weeds next year. Fertilisers at this time will have very little result.<\/p>\n

    Should I fertilise before I treat my weeds?
    \n<\/strong><\/em>No, while it might be nice to think that the lawn would grow into the spaces left by the weeds quicker, this new growth is very juvenile and will be highly susceptible to damage from the herbicide. It is important to have the weeds actively growing so they absorb the herbicide, but most common lawn weeds in Australia are winter annuals and are actively growing without the need for additional fertiliser.<\/p>\n

    Is there anything else I should do after applying a herbicide?<\/strong><\/em>
    \nAn application of fertiliser is recommended to help the lawn fill in this area\u00a0a few weeks after<\/strong>\u00a0the herbicide application. In large infestations a follow up application of herbicide may be required.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":6670,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":""},"product_cat":[66],"product_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-6669","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-lawn-care","7":"product_shipping_class-charged-by-weight","9":"first","10":"instock","11":"taxable","12":"shipping-taxable","13":"purchasable","14":"product-type-simple"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.smartstonelandscape.com.au\/beenleigh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/6669"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.smartstonelandscape.com.au\/beenleigh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.smartstonelandscape.com.au\/beenleigh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.smartstonelandscape.com.au\/beenleigh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6669"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.smartstonelandscape.com.au\/beenleigh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/6670"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.smartstonelandscape.com.au\/beenleigh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6669"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.smartstonelandscape.com.au\/beenleigh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=6669"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.smartstonelandscape.com.au\/beenleigh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=6669"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
