the first when less than 6 inches tall and a second when re-growth is less than 4 inches.\u00a0 Multiple applications are also needed for Johnsongrass.<\/p>\n<p>(3) Herbicides in this group generally do not mix well with other herbicide products.\u00a0 However, it is very important to add surfactants (wetting agents) to improve plant uptake.\u00a0 See information below and product labels for details.<\/p>\n<p>(4) Herbicide spray solution (water) volumes are typically between 10 to 20 gallons per sprayed acre (GPA) with a range 5-40 GPA;
