Gordons Qt Trimec Plus Crabgrass Kill RTS

Weeds can quickly invade a lawn, stealing nutrients, water, and sunlight from healthy grass. Gordon's Qt Trimec Plus Crabgrass Killer is a potent herbicide that kills broadleaf and grassy weeds without damaging the lawn. This rinse-free, ready-to-spray (RTS) weed killer is simple to use by attaching to a hose and spraying it.

This herbicide kills over 200 kinds of weeds, including crabgrass, dandelions, and clover. It is ideal for homeowners and professional gardeners. Unlike some weed killers, which require mixing and measuring, this solution comes pre-mixed, giving people a uniform application each time.

Key Features 

It is one of the most precise and easy-to-use herbicides for removing weeds. Here are its main features for fast-acting and long-term results.

• Ready-to-Spray Formula: No mixing and measuring is required; just connect to a garden hose and spray it.
• Covers Large Areas: One bottle covers up to 16,000 square feet, so it’s great for both small and large lawns.
• Rainproof & Fast-Acting:  Results within days and rainproof in some hours for extended durability.
• Wide-Range Control: Effective against over 200 varieties of broadleaf and grassy weeds. 

How It Works 

The formula swiftly targets and restrains weed growth. So here’s how it kills weeds and keeps the yard healthier.

1. Absorption through leaves: The herbicide is sprayed on weeds and rapidly taken up through the leaves and stems. It digs deep down into the plant and thoroughly covers it.
2. Disrupting Plant Growth: Once this weed killer is inside, it blocks key enzymes and hormones that weeds need to grow. Moreover, it interrupts photosynthesis, which is required to make energy.
3. Circulation to the Roots: The formulation travels through the plant’s vascular system to the roots. So it ensures the entire weed is affected, not just the parts above ground, gets the acid.
4. Wilting and Discoloration: Weeds begin to curl, yellow, and shrivel within 24 to 48 hours. This is a sign of dehydration and decompensation of their internal structure.
5. Complete Weed Death: The weed dries, becomes brittle and completely dies in 7 to 14 days. 

Application Instructions

If this weed is not properly applied, it will be ineffective on weeds. Therefore, to get the best results, follow the instructions below.

1. Prepare for Spraying

Pick a dry day with little to no wind and with no rain forecasted for at least 24 hours. So shake the Gordon's Qt Trimec Plus Crabgrass Killer to mix the solution properly. Then, attatch this to garden hose and screw the bottle tight. Do not turn the sprayer to "ON" until water is turned on.

2. Apply the Herbicide

Open the water and set the sprayer to “ON.” Start with the herbicide and walk back and forth across the lawn in a smooth sweeping motion. However, concentrate on regions of thick weed growth and avoid over dosage. Set an angle for the bottle and apply consistently to avoid excessive spray.

3. Allow Herbicide Time to Dry

Once applied, do not water, or disturb the treated area for at least 24 hours. This allows the herbicide to be absorbed nicely for the best possible results. After a few hours, the solution becomes rainproof. 

4. Monitor Results and Reapply if Needed

Within 24 to 48 hours, weeds will start to turn yellow. It can take as long as two weeks to fully eliminate the virus. A second treatment may be applied after four weeks if some weeds remain. 

5. Keep the Area Safe

Keep pets and kids off the lawn until the herbicide has dried thoroughly. This protects against unintentional exposure and also allows the product to function without hindrance. However, the drying time will depend on weather conditions.
