If so, with all the moisture over the winter and early spring, could the lawn be reseeded in the Spring, as all the melted snow & rain would have washed the Prodiamine away enough? I put Prodiamine 65 WDG on a lawn in the Fall in New York State. During the Winter, there will be a lot of snow & rain.
Herbicides such as Prodiamine will break down in the soil over time, and excess rainfall can increase how quickly that process happens. Ideally, Prodiamine 65 WDG should be watered in within 7 days of application, so unless the snow melts within that time it would be best to go ahead and water in 1/2 inch after application. Prodiamine 65 WDG (Generic Barricade) should not need to be reapplied after snow. More water in the area would just get it into the ground better. Prodiamine 65 WDG will inhibit the development of turfgrass species overseeded too soon after application. It will depend upon the rate of product used per acre as to how many months you need to wait before reseeding. At the minimum use rate, you need to wait 4 months before reseeding. Please refer to the product label for complete instructions on reseeding.
