    Q
    Will Tenacity Herbicide kill dollar weed and not kill my Centipedegrass?
    A

    No, Tenacity Herbicide is not labeled to be used on Centipedegrass nor is it labeled for dollarweed.  For small lawns, Hi-Yield Atrazine Weed Killer  or Image Kills Nutsedge would be good safe options.  Blindside or MSM Turf are options for larger areas.

    Q
    What is the differance between all of these herbicides like Tenacity Herbicide and Round Up?
    A

    Roundup products contain glyphosate which is non selective so kills pretty much anything that it is applied to.  Selective herbicides like Tenacity Herbicide only kills those weeds that are listed on the product label and are generally safe for use on turfgrass.

    Q
    Do you recommend Tenacity for fall application to Michigan grass?
    My yard is being overtaken with Creeping Charlie and wild violets (along with numerous other weeds). Thought if I applied this now, in the spring I could re-seed

  • Asked by Ray
    03/30/2020
    Q
    I applied Tenacity on my turf grass during the first week of March. At least 90% of the lawn is light yellow
    In color 3 weeks later. How long would it be before turf returns to green? I live in NJ.
    A
    Yellowing or whitening of the turf after a broadcast application of Tenacity Herbicide is caused by the loss of chlorophyll. The product label states, "Tenacity may cause temporary whitening of turfgrass foliage. In general, symptoms appear five to seven days after application and last for several weeks. A repeat application to the same site causes less whitening of the plant tissue."

    Q
    When should I apply Tenacity to newly planted Buffalograss?
    We planted Buffalograss 10 days ago and it is starting to sprout, along with some pesky weeds. Is it safe to apply Tenacity now, or should we give the Buffalograss more time to mature? If so, how much longer?
    A
    According to the Tenacity product label for New Lawn Establishment: Wait until the newly germinated turf has been mowed two times or four weeks after emergence(whichever is longer) before making a postemergence application.
