Cody is generic Curtail. 

For those with big lawns or lots of friends.... the economy 2.5 gallon size.

Ive seen that too... Was thinking about it this year... But if its very similar all I would need is the quart, 2.5 gallons would be enough to spot treat my lawn for the better part of a decade if its the same stuff!

We would usually get a gallon of it and split it 4-6 ways.  Probably about 1/4 cup per gallon of water and right in a normal sprayer.  We use it right on our lawns and it has taken out pretty much every weed we went at and never had any problems with our grass.  Definitely start out with less and feel it out but we would spray in the morning and weeds would be brown and wilted by the days end.  Don't get it on you and keep kids and pets away until the next day.  I always weed and fertilize my lawn in two sections to keep the dogs happy.  Front yard one day then back yard a couple days later so I always have a clean area for them.

Thanks.  I'll have to give it a try.

Did you know white vinegar kills weeds pretty darned well? Plus, then yer lawn smells like a vinaigrette salad.

After that I zip tie a couple carrots under the mower to spread carrot shavings across the yard!
