When is it safe to spray weed b gone oxalis? The bottle says 90 degrees. Does that mean I can spray at night even though it will be over 90 the following day? Or should I wait until daytime temps are consistently below 90?

I would wait until highs are below 90. The label says to spray when daytime temperatures are between 45 and 90.

I would probably wait until highs are below 85, because I tend to play it safe.

Great q, im a big fan of weed b gon, its managed to get rid of almost all of my weeds. I havent been using it when the temp was above 85 as i noticed at 85 the grass started to go yellow. My advice (which im also following), is to wait until the temp hits the mid 70s, do it in the evening so the sun doesnt stress the grass out too much. Ive followed that rule all spring and i have virtually zero weeds now. ill do it again when it cools down then mow low in fall and throw down a bunch of seed. worked great last year for the back ! Good luck.
