Southern Alberta
We spray all glyphosate at 3 gal/ac and wildoat herbicides at between 3-5 gal/ac depending on the tank mix broadleaf component. I spray all liberty at 5 gal/ac and have been very happy.

Use airbubble jet tips which are air induction tips to help drift control, but have very small droplets and excellent coverage. Went to a twin nozzle with 2 air bubble jet 11001 nozzles to apply 5 gal/ac and the coverage is fantastic. It does drift slightly more in the stronger winds than a single 11002 tip would.

Any more than 5 gal/ac here and you are irrigating, not spraying.
