As I understand the label, I mix 4-6 oz per gallon in a spot sprayer, either the 2 gallon hand sprayer or the 10 gallon electric one. Using too weak of a mixture causes resistance. I now mostly spray my gravel driveway and not much else. Glyphosate is only supposed to be absorbed by green foliage, and weeds with mostly stalks have a harder time being killed by it. However, over time repeated spraying will cause bare dirt which can erode and become a place for more weed seed to germinate. Catch-22! Other desirable plants may be an alternative after spraying. It takes about a week for most stuff to die, but good grass is a little quicker to die. And it can drift a foot or two if you are not careful. Pramitol is supposed to prevent seed from germinating for a season, but I have had mixed results and you need a rain shortly after spraying it, and it can leach to areas where you don't want things to die.
