    Q
    Can Drive XLR8 Herbicide be mixed with Momentum?
    Can I mix this with lesco momentum for better control?
    A
    As long as both products do not contain the same active ingredient, and both have labels that allow tank mixing in general then you should be able to mix the Drive and Momentum together. Per the Drive label: The most restrictive labeling applies with any tank mix. To increase spectrum of control of broadleaf and other weeds, Drive XLR8 may be tank mixed with 2,4-D, Triclopyr, and other broadleaf herbicides. Make sure to do a tank mix test first for any clumping or discoloring before applying to the lawn.

    A

    Per the Drive XLR8 Herbicide label, it is only labeled for foxtail grass.

    A better option would be Tenacity Herbicide. It is labeled for goosegrass, foxtail, and nimblewill. It is recommended to spot treat with Round Up in areas where the orchardgrass is growing.

    Q
    Will Drive XLR8 harm mature native grasses bluestem and indiangrass?
    How about seeding natives after application?
    A

    The Drive XLR8 Label does not specifically mention Big Bluestem grass or Indian grass on the label whether it be as a target pest or as a tolerant species to the product. From the links below from the USDA NRCS it states that those grasses are tolerant to most broadleaf herbicides and should not be harmed if product directions are followed and applied accurately. That being said, you can follow the link below to the USDA Service Center Locator to speak with your local conservationist in your region on what works bests in your area and what products they may recommend.

    Q
    What steps should I take to be able to keep getting in new grass and killing clover and weeds?
    I seed right before fall and got alot of new grass after killing what was there. I have alot of spots thatneed more seeding. Question I have is clover what it looks to be is starting to take over. I need more fescue seed but want to kill clover to. I haven't used fertilizer and weed control yet. When to do pre emergent? What products do you recommended?
    A

    We do have a post-emergent product that can be used in your lawn for clover. Depending on the type of fescue you have, this product can be used at the time of seeding. Drive XLR8 Herbicide is a very good product that is labeled for clover, as well as various other types of broadleaf weeds. It is safe for use in fescue as well. If you are overseeding with fine fescue, it is recommended that you use Drive XLR8 at least 7 days before seeding or 28 days after emergence of the new seed. If you are overseeding with tall fescue, Drive XLR8 can be used at any time. We do recommend using an MSO surfactant with this product as well. Please check the label with regards to this.

    A pre-emergent can be used at the same time as a post emergent. Prodiamine 65 WDG is a very good option. It will prevent many broadleaf and grassy weeds from emerging. This should be done when the soil temperature reaches 55 degrees Fahrenheit. In southern states, individuals should be using this product in late February or early to mid March depending on the soil temperature.

    We would also recommend checking out our Warm Season Lawn Schedule as well. This gives very good information on when to fertilize, use pre-emergents, etc. in your lawn.

  • Asked by Jennifer from Wichita, Ks

    Q
    Can Drive XLR8 be tank mixed with Resolute 65 WG?
    I live in south central Kansas and have 3 acres of 'Bowie' buffalo grass. It was planted 2 years ago. We are having problems with grassy weed(crab grass & foxtail), clover, bindweed, etc..... due to rain I haven't been able to get a pre emergent down yet and thanks for the super early warm temps I am seeing the many of the early spring weeds come out already. I would like put both down at the same time if possible. I have a 30 gal sprayer that I pull behind the mower. Any other suggestions for weed control would be helpful. Thanks in advance.
    A

    Drive XLR8 Herbicide Crabgrass Killer could be mixed with Resolute 65 WDG as long as you follow the instructions on both product labels.  However, if you are already seeing weeds it is too late for any pre-emergent to be effective.
