    Q
    Can Acclaim be used to suppress common Bermuda in centipede?
    A
    No, Acclaim cannot be used to suppress Bermuda because acclaim is not labeled for use on centipede grass at all.  Therefore we cannot recommend it.  We actually do not carry a product that is labeled to remove Bermuda grass from centipede.  The only suggestion we can give is to kill the Bermuda with a glyphosate product and then re-seed the centipede in those areas.

    Q
    When is Acclaim most effective on killing Johnsgrass? What time of the year should it be applied?
    A

    According to the article here, the effectiveness of certain herbicides including Acclaim Extra Selective Herbicide were effective when applied early season (pre-tiller), mid-season (1 to 2 tillers) and late season (pre-flowering). In general, two applications provided greater control than a single treatment.  So you should start when it first starts to grow.  You can also contact your local cooperative extension office to determine the correct timing of the application as this will vary greatly from region to region.

    Q
    How does Acclaim Extra compare to Drive XLR8?
    I am looking to control crabgrass after it has germinated. What are the difference between the Acclaim Extra and Drive XLR8 products? Does one work better?
    A

    Both Acclaim Extra Selective Herbicide and Drive XLR8 are both highly effective for post emergent control of crabgrass. Drive XLR8 when used with a methylated oil surfactant such as Prime Source Duo Stick is a top choice for post emergent control of crabgrass and usually preferred as it is a more economical option.   Acclaim Extra is also labeled for many other grassy weeds, Drive controls listed broadleaf weeds and grassy weeds.

    Q
    Will Acclaim Extra herbicide control nimblewill grass in a predominately fescue/bluegrass lawn?
    A

    Acclaim Extra Selective Herbicide is not labeled for nimblewill. Tenacity is labeled for post-emergent control of Nimblewill in Kentucky Bluegrass, Centipedegrass, Buffalograss, Tall Fescue, Perennial Ryegrass, Fine Fescue, St. Augustine Grass. Per the product label, you may need a second application after 2 to 3 weeks. Apply to young, actively growing weeds, and be sure to use a surfactant such as Southern Ag Non-Ionic surfactant for post-emergent applications.  Your other option would be to use a non-selective herbicide such as Roundup to spot treat the Nimblewill to kill it directly, and then replant in those areas.

    Q
    Will Acclaim Extra Selective Herbicide kill Timothy hay?
    I recently built a house on farm land that had Timothy hay growing on it. We just had the landscaping done and the ground seeded on July 8th, 2020, and the hay is popping up all throughout the lawn as my grass is trying to grow in. Will this kill the hay without killing my grass. I live in Central Pennsylvania. Thank you.
    A
    Acclaim Extra Selective Herbicide

    is not labeled to control timothy grass. Unfortunately, we are not aware of any product that is labeled to kill timothy grass among other desirable turfgrasses. You can carefully spot treat the timothy grass with a non-selective herbicide such as Killzalland then overseed any bare spots as needed.

    Q
    Can Acclaim be applied with Triplet SF (mixed in a tank sprayer) or should each be applied separately?
    If separately, how long should I wait between the two treatments? I am working to control stiltgrass (Acclaim) as well as clover, plantain, and and dandelions (Triplet) within a seeded tall fescue lawn (80% TTTF, 10% perennial rye, 10% Kentucky bluegrass).
    A

    We would not recommend tank mixing Acclaim Extra Selective Herbicide with Triplet SF.  Acclaim requires the use o a surfactant whereas the Triplet does not and using one could reduce selectivity on turfgrass.
