Question

I just bought 1 pound of Drive 75DF. Can you confirm that a level tablespoon equals 0.367 ounces? Also, for spot spraying, the label recommends 2 tablespoons (1 oz) of MSO per gallon of water. However, 0.55 oz of MSO is specified elsewhere.

Which is correct?

Thanks!

Everyone has questions. And BASF Professional Turf has answers.

Felix,
You should have a measuring cap on your container. There should be a mark for .367 ounces, use that as your measuring device. With regard to the MSO, the .55 oz rate is correct. Will you be using this in a backpack? The rates I gave you are designed for 1000 sq ft of turf area. If you are using a backpack or pump-up sprayer with an adjustable nozzle, we have estimated that in most situations you apply about 2 gallons of water per 1000 sq ft. That means you should add .367 ounces of Drive and half an ounce of MSO to two gallons of water and spray to wet, do not soak.

Thanks for your question,
