Ferti-lome Weed Free Zone, manufactured by VPG, is an easy-to-mix, non-selective pesticide that controls various broadleaf weeds and crabgrass in residential lawns.

To ensure a 100% elimination of weeds, Ferti-lome Weed Free Zone is a combination product of four proven weed killers: 2,4-D, mecoprop-p, dicamba, and carfentrazone-ethyl.

Ferti-lome Weed Free Zone, is a recommended fast-acting product that can eliminate weeds in cool weather down to 40 degrees. This is ideal not only for cool-seasoned grasses but warm-seasoned grasses as well.

Tools Needed

To use Ferti-lome Weed Free Zone, you must use a handheld or backpack sprayer.

How to Use

Spraying Turf

  • Step 1: Delay mowing 1 to 2 days before and after the application of the Ferti-lome Weed Free Zone. Determine how much Ferti-lome Weed Free Zone you will need by measuring the square footage of the treatment area. Do this by measuring the length and width and multiplying them together (length x width = square feet). For cool-seasoned grasses, apply between 1.5 to 2.0 fl. oz. of Ferti-lome Weed Free Zone per 1 gallon of water per 1,000 sq. ft. Mix between 0.75 to 1.5 fl. oz. of product per 1 gallon of water per 1,000 sq. ft for warm-seasoned grass. For example, if you have an area measured to be 1,350 sq. ft., then you will multiply it by the recommended rate for either cool-seasoned or warm-seasoned grass (1350 sq. ft. X 1.5 fl. oz. = 20.25 fl. oz. of product to use). For specific foliage rates, refer to the label. The maximum application rate is 3.0 fl. oz. of product per 1,000 sq. ft. per application. Broadcast applications may only be made twice a year. The maximum seasonal rate is 6.0 fl. oz. of product per 1,000 sq. ft., excluding spot treatments.
  • Step 2: Place half the required amount of water into your selected sprayer, then add the measured amount of the Ferti-lome Weed Free Zone. Fill the rest of the way with the other half of the water. Close the sprayer's lid and agitate until the mixture is even.
  • Step 3: With your sprayer of choice, carefully spray the undesired foliage until wet on both sides of the leaves, but not to the point of runoff. You will want to apply an even, coarse spray pattern until the foliage in the treatment area is coated on both sides of the plant's leaves. Refer to the label for reapplication restrictions for the type of treated foliage.

Where to Use

Use Ferti-lome Weed Free Zone on broadleaf weeds in warm-seasoned and cool-seasoned turf in residential and commercial neighborhoods. This product is best applied when rainfall is predicted within 24 hours. Rainfall or watering within 4 hours of application may reduce the product's effectiveness.

It may be used on cool-seasoned grasses such as Kentucky Bluegrass, Perennial Ryegrass, tall fescue, Red or Fine-Leaf Fescues, Colonial Bentgrass, and Mixes of Cool-Season Species.

It may be used on warm-seasoned grasses such as common Bermudagrass, Hybrid Bermudagrass, Bahiagrass, Zoysiagrass, Buffalograss, St. Augustinegrass, and Centipedegrass.

When to Use

This product may be applied in the spring, summer, or fall. Use this product when weeds are young and actively growing, typically in the spring, for best results. Applications to foliage in the summer will not be as effective due to drought-stressed weeds.

Summer applications are best for thin weed populations, not for dense infestations.

Do not apply this product to St. Augustinegrass during spring green-up, the transition period between dormancy and active growth.

Safety Information

Ferti-lome Weed Free Zone is safe to use around children or pets when applied according to the product label. Always wear the appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) when mixing or applying this product.

Do not allow pets or children to enter the treatment area until the spray completely dries.

Special Considerations

The turfgrass tolerance to the Ferti-lome Weed Free Zone may vary, and temporary turfgrass yellowing may occur on St. Augustinegrass and certain varieties of Hybrid Bermudagrass.

Do not apply this product to ‘Floratam’ or Bitterblue’ varieties of St. Augustinegrass in Florida.

Do not allow spray to drift onto vegetables, flowers, ornamental plants, shrubs, trees, and other desirable plants since injury may result.
