Turf Builder with Plus 2 Weed Control should be applied to a wet lawn and allowed to stay on the foliage undisturbed for at least 24 hours without rain or water. Since this product is initially absorbed through the weed's foliage, we recommend that the weeds not be mowed for two days both before and after the product application. This product will only kill weeds that are actively growing at the time of application, and cannot prevent new weeds from germinating. There are a few particularly troublesome weeds that Turf Builder with Plus 2 Weed Control does not control. If you have any questions as to what the weed is that you are battling in your yard, we recommend that you contact a local reputable nursery to see if they can help you identify the weed before you attempt retreating it with any other product. Once you have had it identified, please let us know what it is and we can help you find the right product to control it.
