I personally don’t like to use hose end sprayers to apply herbicide. It’s too difficult to control the amount of product you are putting down. That’s a personal preference. But if it’s worked for you in the past then I don’t see a reason for you to stop.

In that case you can apply whatever you like and just be careful to not get any on your desired plants.

ETA: if you have established plants you could apply a pre emergent like Preen. I’m not sure what other pre emergent herbicides are ok to use in the garden. In the lawn there are quite a few options like prodiamine and dithiopyr, among others.

Spectacide hose end sprayer is a good product. I've found people displeased with it aren't using according to directions...applying it when too hot, too cold, etc.
