    Q
    Crabgrass control in ground cover
    Hi, I contacted you last year about several issues in my ground cover juniper bushes. You suggested Snapshot and that helped alot. My problem is I also have crabgrass in this ground cover and while it controlled most weeds, it didn't help at all with crabgrass. Is there another product you can recommend that I can use in addition to the Snapshot that would be better for the crabgrass? I don't want to kill the ground cover just control weeds and crabgrass. What is the best month to apply the pre-emergent for east Tennessee? I think last year I spread it at the end of March.
    A

    Fusilade is a good option to use for crabgrass and other grassy weeds in juniper as directed on the product label.  As far as timing for a pre-emergent like Snapshot, it should be applied before soil temperatures reach 55 degrees.  If the Snapshot did not prevent the crabgrass it sounds like it was applied too late.  You may 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
    Will snapshot still work after 9
    A

    Snapshot 2.5 TG is a pre-emergent herbicide that needs to be activated with about 0.5 inches of rainfall or irrigation. If you are expecting extremely heavy rains, then it would be best to delay your application so that your barrier is not disturbed. Snapshot should be activated within 3 days of application for best results. Repeat applications at 150 lbs per Acre or higher should not be made sooner than 60 days, per the product label.

    Q
    Can you apply Snapshot 2.5 TG to wet plants?

    Snapshot 2.5 TG can be applied to damp ground from dew or a previous rain, but you would not want to apply when the ground is saturated or holding water. Snapshot does need to be activated by water within 3 days of application to be effective.

    Q
    Can Snapshot be applied directly on top of plants?
    Can Snapshot be applied directly on top of established plants and then watered in or does it have to be applied around the established plants only?
    A

    Snapshot 2.5 TG is best applied directly to the soil and then watered in as it is a pre-emergent herbicide.  If some granules get on the leaves during application, these should be knocked off if they do not come off after watering.

    Q
    Can Snapshot 2.5 TG be used for planting bare root blueberry plants?
    A

    Snapshot 2.5 TG cannot be used in areas where edibles are planted, or in areas that are being prepared for edibles to be planted.  Casoron 4G is labeled for use around blueberries.  It should be applied in the fall, once soil temperatures have dropped below 70 degrees and in the spring before soil temperatures have reached 50-55 degrees.  The label states it should not be applied to blueberries until 4 weeks after transplanting.

    Q
    Is Snapshot 2.5 TG safe to use under a mature blue oak?
    Also, I don't recall that landscapers watered after spreading pre-emergent on Aug. 22, 2019.
    A

    Q
    Using Snapshot 2.5 TG in a new bed
    What would be best for weed control in a new bed? First get to soil then blanket spray Roundup then sprinkle this out? Is RoundUp a bad idea? I would be planting in this bed as well. Thank you.
    A

    Roundup would be good to use to kill anything in the bed now as well as spot treating with care on future weeds, then you could plant in 2 weeks and apply Snapshot 2.5 TG after planting for future prevention.

  • Asked by Yami from San Jose, Ca
    05/08/2018
    Q
    What happen if Snapshot is applied without water? Will it still be effective? Will it lose effectiveness if I water it the next day?
    A

    Snapshot should always be watered in (so that it can reach the soil level) to help stop the weeds from germinating. Please make sure the Snapshot is used at another time when you are ready to apply water. It will not lose it's effectiveness, but the prodcut works better when it is watered in.

  • Asked by Bruce from Brick
    04/05/2019
    Q
    Can Snapshot be used with planting of Nassella trichotoma?
    A

    Snapshot 2.5 TG - 50 lbs. does not list Nassella trichotoma as tolerant to an application. This does not appear to be something common to the US so the manufacturer does appear to have tested Snapshot around it.
