Overview

This product features a 16-0-9 fertilizer analysis, feeding to build a thicker, greener lawn.

APPLYING SURGE WEED AND FEED
Spring and fall applications are suitable for the best control. However, this product can be applied any time broadleaf weeds are present and actively growing.

A uniform broadcast distribution of product on the treated area is essential. Do not exceed the specified application rate for any area. Do not apply product to bare ground. Do not use this product on dichondra, carpetgrass, creeping bentgrass, or turf containing desirable clovers.

Sequential or follow-up applications may be required for dense infestations of perennial and biennial weeds. Also, adverse environmental conditions prior or after application may reduce the effectiveness. If required, the treatment interval between the first and second applications should be approximately 30 days. Do not exceed the maximum seasonal rate of 348 pounds, per acre per season, excluding spot treatments.

Do not use this product on Floratam St. Augustine grass.

SURGE FOR ESTABLISHED TURF

- Mow the turf 1 to 2 days before application.
- Water the turf thoroughly (>1/2 inch) at least 1 to 2 days before application.
- Schedule applications in the morning when dew is present. Or, sprinkle or irrigate lightly (<1/4 inch) before application to provide maximum control.
- Rainfall or irrigation within 24 hours after application may reduce the effectiveness. Do not irrigate or water the turf within 24 hours after application.

SURGE FOR NEWLY SEEDED TURF
This product can be applied to newly seeded cool season turf. Apply only after the third mowing or after the grass seedlings have tillered and have developed an adequate secondary root system. This product can also be applied to newly established warm season turf. Treatments should be delayed until 3 to 4 weeks after the sodding, sprigging, or plugging operations, and low application rates (1/2 of the listed rate for established turf) are suggested.

The spreader settings for this product were established using standard equipment available from the spreader manufacturer at swath widths and speeds typically used within the industry. Many variables such as walking speed, terrain, particle size, density, and spreader condition can affect these settings. Spreader settings are intended as a guide and unit calibration should still be performed to ensure proper application rates. They are not intended to replace calibration. The Andersons recommends the use of broadcast spreader for its products.

Quit wasting your time and money

30 yards of topsoil, hours of dragging followed by more hours of raking. Bags and bags of seed, moving sprinklers for days,voila new grass. A wonderful summer of a beautiful lawn. Then spring hits and what the …are those weeds? I applied the pre-emergent to late. Bring on the big guns, these weeds have to go. After applying Surge I’m watching them disappear, green growing grass again. In for a penny , in for a pound. Quit wasting your time, money and energy on a product that doesn’t work like the bag claims. I’ve already spent so much time and money, I’m worth the best, so are you.

It’s ok

Applied with my scott’s spreader as directed. It killed about half the weeds. Some of the same time we’re completely unaffected. It said it covers up to 16k sq/f but even at lowest setting which i believe is 3 or 3 1/4.I set mine at 4 1/2 and it didn’t cover 5k sq/f. I bought this so i could get 2 uses out of the 40lb bag possibly. Not gonna happen. Still a good product, I just expected a bigger difference.

Surge

Surge works great on cool season weeds and fertilizes at the same time, although since using PGF Complete 7 times a year I have fewer weeds due to a thick lawn, plus I overseed every fall.
