Product Overview
Sublime Herbicide is the only product on the market powered by the combination of triclopyr, dicamba and mesotrione. This innovative non-phenoxy formulation reliably delivers a much wider spectrum of selective, post-emergent and residual control, particularly on many of the most challenging broadleaf and grassy weeds in turfgrass. In addition to an unprecedented level of performance, the unique blend of active ingredients in Sublime Herbicide suppresses the common and unsightly bleaching symptoms that can be caused by mesotrione alone.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does this work on woody type weeds? I think I might have some buckthorn seedlings growing, will this work?
As per the the Sublime manufacturer’s label, only broadleaf weeds are listed as controlled or suppressed. If you are looking at controlling woody type weeds, you would want a product with Triclopy as the primary active ingredient. Please be sure your grass species is tolerant to Triclopyr before application. The following excerpt is from the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources:
“Herbicide treatment options
Chemical control options for cut stumps include treating the stump immediately after cutting (within 2 hours) with a herbicide containing triclopyr (Garlon 3A/Vastlan, Garlon 4, or other brush killers with triclopyr) or glyphosate to prevent re-sprouting. Always follow label instructions for herbicides. Refer to the herbicide table in the additional resources for more information.
Herbicides can be applied to cut stumps with a paint-brush, wick applicator such as a dauber or “buckthorn blaster”, or a low volume sprayer. When using water-soluble herbicide products like most brush killers, Garlon 3A/Vastlan, or any of the glyphosate products, treat only the cut surface. When using oil-based products like Garlon 4 or Pathfinder II, treat the cut surface and the remaining bark to the ground line.
In cases where more than a few plants are treated, add an indicator dye such as Mark-It Blue (available where pesticides are sold) to the herbicide to mark cut stumps you have sprayed. Colored flags can also help mark cut stumps. When buckthorn is cut, the stumps are easily covered and lost under cut brush.
For basal stem treatment, a method that applies chemical through the bark, low volume spray applications can be made with Garlon 4 and similar oil-based products. This application method uses triclopyr ester mixed with an oil diluent ( i.e. Bark Oil Blue, kerosene or diesel oil) applied directly to the bark of buckthorn from the root collar up about 12-18 inches. This treatment works best on stems less than 2-3 inches in diameter. An ultra low volume spray wand should be used to minimize herbicide use and reduce the potential for non-target injury. Buckthorn treated in this fashion should be left standing until dead and cut at a later date.”

Just double checking application rate. I am using a back back sprayer for one-third of an acre. If I understand correctly, I am using about 10-11 ounces of sublime but not sure how much water to use? Directions say 32 oz per acre in 10 gallons of water so trying to do conversion.
You would want to mix .75 ounces in 1 gallon of water. Adjust your walking speed so the 1 gallon will cover 1000 sq feet of lawn. Or, if you know how many backpack fills it normally takes to cover your 1/3 acre, divide the 10 ounces into equal amounts for each backpack full-up.
