    Hoping to do some briars tomorrow evening... just wondered what rate that you lads/ladies apply Grazon for spot spraying, have a 95litre quad sprayer?

    Also have asulox to put out on Ferns/Bracken... do i have to wait until July to get maximum kill and is that for all the fronds to rear their ugly heads?

    Thanks in advance :)

    it says do not exceed 16ml per litre.... it costs €45 per litre to buy i put 240 ml in 15 litres in the knapsack.... might help to read the label:rolleyes:

    i only use 2/3 of a litre for my 100l tank with the quad.<br />
    6.66ml to a litre. Worked alright for me.
    Cost you a fortune going with the max rate. It would be a litre and a half per tank. About 75 euro a tank!!!

    Thanks Whelan,

    I did see that max rate for napsacks on the label but just wondered did people get away with less than the max rate in a slightly larger sprayer, as next poster says he does, raining here anyway so cancelled for another evening:mad:

    I never ever mix at max rate. Normally I go with 70% of max rate for all sprays. Never seen failure yet.
