    Q
    How soon can you apply Tenacity Herbicide to new sod?
    We had centipede sod put down 4 weeks ago. The sod is getting well established and can't be removed now. The problem is weeds growing between the pieces. How long is it recommended to wait before applying to centipede sod?
    A

    Tenacity Herbicide can be used as a spot treatment for existing broadleaf weeds once the new lawn is established and has been mowed at least 2-3 times.

    Q
    Can Tenacity harm Japanese Red Maple or Dogwood Trees?
    I will be applying Tenacity today as a post emergent and want to know if I should worry about it coming in contact with either my Japanese Red Maple or Dogwood trees. Thank you
    A

    Tenacity Herbicide is not labeled for trees so spraying around the trees could possibly harm them. It states on the product label: Avoid applications over the top of exposed roots of trees and ornamentals.  Just about all herbicides are going to have the restriction that applications should be kept out of the dripline of desirable trees The best you could do is carefully spot treat the weeds themselves and not broadcast in these areas.

    Q
    Will Tenacity Herbicide prevent my wildflower seed from germinating?
    I am wanting to sow new wildflower seeds on my steep slopes (larger area).
    A

    Many wildflowers are considered weeds and Tenacity Herbicide could prevent them from growing or can cause damage to the seeds that do sprout. If you have weeds in the area, we recommend using a roundup type product to kill all of the weeds and you can plant the seeds after two weeks.

    Q
    Can Tenacity Herbicide be used on Zoysia to treat creeping charlie and yellow thistle for pre and post emergent applicatons?
    A

    No, Tenacity Herbicide is not labeled for use on Zoysia and could potentially cause damage or injure the lawn. Unfortuanately, there is not a pre emergent currently on the market for creeping charlie and nutsege therefore the best method of control will be to use a post emergent when the weeds are actively growing. Dimension 2EW is a great choice for pre-emergent control for over 200 broadleaf and grassy weeds. 

    Blindside Herbicide is a post emergent labeled to contol activily growing weeds such as creeping charlie (ground ivy) purple and yellow nutsege, crabgrass, dandelion, etc.  The mix rate for Zoysia is 0.15 - 0.23 oz per 1000 sq ft (6.5 - 10 oz / per acre) .

    Q
    Should product only be used during seeding growing months (spring/fall)?
    Have had success with Tenacity in killing weeds, however weeds do grow back. Are you supposed to skip using the product during the summer, because you're likely unable to grow new seed until the fall? It seems like an on-going battle with the weeds, and curious if you're supposed to go after the weeds when you're able to replace it with grass. Otherwise you're wasting your time.
    A

    When applying Tenacity Herbicide for pre emergent contol of the listed weeds, temperatures should be around 55 – 65 degrees consecutively for 4-5 days. For Kentucky Bluegrass and Tall Fescue, Tenacity is able to be applied before, at the same time or directly after seeding and will not inhibit grass seeds from germinating.

    Also, refer to the Weeds Controlled Chart on page 9 of the product label for the specific weeds you are targeting to see if they are marked as Supppressed, Controlled or Both when using Tenacity. It is possible that the weeds you are targeting are not suppressed with pre emergent applications and only controlled as a post emergent. 

    If applying as a post emergent with a Non Ionic Surfactant when weeds are actively growing, you would need to wait at least four weeks or until the new grass has been mowed twice, whichever is longer.

    The key time to avoid spraying Tenacity on new seedings, either as a pre-emergent or a post-emergent, would be when the new seedlings have started to come up but are not yet established.  Please refer to page 12 of the label for complete application instructions around seeding.

    Q
    Is there something I can do to revive the zoysia grass that was sprayed with Tenacity?
    A

    There may not be any options for reviving the turf that was damaged by Tenacity Herbicide. You can apply a lot of water to the treated areas but you may need to reseed or resod the injured areas eventually that died out from the application (this can take weeks depending on the date of application).

    Q
    Can Tenacity Herbicide be used with Battleship III?
    My lawn care service uses Battleship III when applying fertilization applications. Can this be used in conjunction, because it is clearly not working for clover and crab grass in the lawn.
    A

    Battleship III is only for controlling broadleaf weeds and will not effect crabgrass or other grassy weeds at all.  The label does not mention tank mixing with herbicides like Tenacity only fertilizers so we would not recommend doing so.

    Q
    I have 10 acres of pasture, full of velvet grass. I want to spray all of it. Can I get a bigger container of Tenacity Herbicide?

    Unfortunately Tenacity Herbicide is only sold in the 8 oz size and is not labeled to be used on pastures at all so not recommended.

    Q
    Recommendations for using 50 gal. tow behind sprayer.
    I am not spot spraying.
    A
    Please refer to the tale on page 8 of the product label for Tenacity Herbicide, and use the rates specified for your grass type.  When applying this product, the amount of water is not as important as the following the labeled product rates.  You will need to use as much water for your application that it takes to distribute the product evenly to the area being treated.

    Q
    Accidental spray from Tenacity Herbicide hit plants in garden
    My tomato plants are starting to turn white at the tips just like the weeds. I understand the plants will probably die sooner than I'd like. However, any idea if the tomatoes or watermelon will be safe to eat before it all dies? Will the edibles absorb the herbicide and cause sickness if eaten?
    A

    Tenacity Herbicide is not labeled for use on edible vegetation, and we would not recommend eating any fruits or vegetables from plants that have been contacted by the product for at least the growing season.  You can also contact the manufacturer Syngenta for further clarification and product support by calling 1-800-334-9481, or by visiting their website's contact page here.

    Q
    Is it ok to overseed 2 or 3 weeks after spraying Tenacity Herbicide?
    A

    Yes you can overseed 2-3 weeks after application of Tenacity Herbicide.  You will want to wait until the target plants have died, so you can rake out the dead plant matter. You then can overseed anytime thereafter.
