When to Apply

80/20 Select can be used on all turf and ornamental plants to improve spray coverage, retention, and penetration. It works with most herbicides, fungicides, and insecticides without causing chemical interactions.

For best results, apply when plants are actively growing and environmental conditions are mild. 80/20 Select helps sprays stick, spread, and penetrate tough-to-wet surfaces, ensuring your treatments are more effective.

PRO TIPS

  • Apply early morning or late afternoon to reduce evaporation and maximize uptake
  • Add water first, then your active ingredient, and finish with 80/20 Select to ensure even mixing
  • Focus on hard-to-wet or dense foliage for best penetration
  • Mix 1 TBSP per 1 gallon. If using The Andersons 20:1 or 60:1 Hose-End Sprayers, mix 5 TBSP per bottle.
