  • Asked by Anna from Canada
    10/08/2022
    Q
    Can Tenacity be applied if the grass is slightly wet from cooler temps and dew or does it need to be completely dry? This is for a second application to control bentgrass (Zone 5b) and the day/evening temps are much cooler.
    A

    It would be best to wait to apply Tenacity Herbicide until the grass has completely dried before the application. Be sure to mix in a Non Ionic Surfactant when doing post emergent applications.

  • Asked by Whit from Spring Hill, Tn
    10/08/2022
    Q
    What is the mix rate for Tenacity in a 2 gallon sprayer to control poa annua? Treating 7,000 sq ft. One application of Tenacity was done on 8/29 and then overseeded on 9/23.
    I applied a broadcast application of tenacity on 8/29 in TN. I have approximately 7000 square feet. I put out the spot treatment formula instead of broadcast formula so I don't think I put out enough. I overseeded on 9/23. I have a 2 gallon sprayer. How much tenacity do I put into the sprayer with 2 gallons of water? Math is hard:). My goal is to control poa annua. I plan on putting out dimension as well in a few weeks.
    A

    Tenacity Herbicide can be applied at the same time as seeding (unless grass is more than 20% stand of fine fescue). If application cannot be done within 7 days of seeding you would need to wait a minimum of 30 days, or until the seed has emerged and been mowed at least twice before applying to the lawn.  
    According to the Tenacity product label, you will need to mix 1 tsp of product + 3 tsp surfactant with 2 gallons of water for spot treatments applied at a rate of 1 gallon per 1,000 sq ft. It is advised to use a dye like Turf Mark Blue with it so you can make sure to not overlap if you plan to do a broadcast application on the property. Repeat applications can be done after two to three weeks for continued post emergent weed control.

  • Asked by Steve from Pleasantville, Oh
    07/27/2014
    Q
    Will Tenacity affect all varieties of Poa?
    I have what I believe is Poa but am not certain of the variety (annua or other). How can I determine what I have?
    A
    Tenacity Herbicide is not labeled to control Poa Annua/Annual Bluegrass in a post emergent application, it only states that it could cause injury to it if sprayed.  It is only labeled to be used to suppress poa annua when used as a pre-emergent. We recommend to contact your Cooperative Extension Office and speak with the Master Gardener to identify the weed species you need to treat for.

    Will Tenacity kill seedling trees?
    I have a newly planted tree grove (last year) and there are many growing broadeaf weeds that are taking over.
    A
    Tenacity Herbicide is not labeled for trees so spraying around the trees could possibly harm them. We would recommend contacting the manufacturer directly for instructions on spraying around new trees. Here is the number: 866-796-4368.

    Will Tenacity work on Nutsedge growing in my Oporum ground cover?

    Q
    Is Tenacity safe for use in apple orchards in early spring?
    I have nimblewill weed in my orchard and would like to eliminate it
    A

    Tenacity is not labeled for use around anything edible so we cannot recommend it be used in an orchard.  We apologize but we do not currently have a product labeled for control of nimblewill in orchards.  However, you can click here and contact your local cooperative extension office to speak with a Master Gardner to find the name of a product and then contact us to see if we have access to that product.

    Q
    Can you spray Tenacity and Gordon's Trimec at the same time?
    A

    It may be fine to mix both Tenacity and Gordon's Trimec together but has not been tested by the manufacturer. We recommend that you perform a jar test to an inconspicuous area first prior to a full application to confirm if you wish to use them both together.
