    Q
    If Tenacity is applied to a pasture how long do you need to wait before allowing grazing?
    A
    We contacted the manufacturer Syngenta since Tenacity is not labeled for use on pasture land and they told us that you would need to wait 90 days before turning animals out to graze in treated pastures.

  • Asked by John from Lincoln, Ne
    08/27/2016
    Q
    How late in the year can Tenacity Herbicide be applied?
    I purchased Tenacity from you earlier this year. I applied it twice in June, two weeks apart. The nimblewill got a little white, but came back strong. I haven't been able to reapply it because we've had grandkids around. How late can I use it again? How much should I use in a one gallon sprayer? I also purchased and used the Spreader Sticker. Thanks!
    A

    Tenacity Herbicide is a pre and post emergant so it can be applied at any time of the year, where the weeds and grasses you are treating are still actively growing with temps consistently above 55 degrees.  Per the product label you would use .5 tsp of tenacity in one gallon of water.

    Q
    What is the shelf-life of Tenacity Herbicide?
    I plan to use this for spot treatments on small areas of bentgrass. Using only 1/2tsp per gallon, an 8oz bottle is going to last me at least a few years. What is the shelf-life of this product?
    A
    If stored in a cool dry area,  Tenacity Herbicide will last up to 3 years.

    Q
    How often do i apply Tenacity Herbicide?
    A

    Foliage of treated weeds cease growth after application, then turn white (loss of chlorophyll) and death may take up to three weeks. A repeat application of Tenacity Herbicide is required after two to three weeks for improved postemergence weed control.

  • Asked by Michael from New Hampshire
    07/18/2019
    Q
    As a post-emergent, is there any advantage to waiting longer than the 2-3 day recommended minimum to mow after applying Tenacity Herbicide?
    In other words, will leaving the treated blades/leaves attached to the plant for as long as possible (say 7 days) allow the product to be more effective or work faster?
    A

    It is safe to mow areas that have been treated with Tenacity Herbicide 2 days after application.  After that time the product would have worked into the plant enough to not be affected by mowing.  Delaying mowing does not help it work better.

  • Asked by Theresa from Killingworth Ct
    05/31/2014
    Q
    Will Tenacity kill creeping ground ivy also known as creeping charlie or creeping jenny?
    A
    Yes, Tenacity is labled to control Ground Ivy "Creeping Charlie" as post emergent control. We highly recommend using a temporary turf colorant like Turf Mark Blue so that you can see where you spray with the Tenacity to avoid overlapping. Tenacity is a great product, but also a very strong product so too much overlapping or mixing the product too strong can cause temporary damage and whitening to your turf around the ground ivy. The color will come back in the lawn after 3-4 weeks but to avoid this potential problem it is best to use a colorant to make sure no overlap occurs. To get optimum results for post emergent control it is recommended you use a Non Ionic Surfactant in your mixture as well.

    Q
    Will Tenacity Herbicide kill Bermuda grass?
    I am in KY, and I have a real problem with Bermuda grass .The product label says Bermuda grass is sensitive to it. I need something that will kill it.
    A

    The product label states that Bermuda grass is sensitive to Tenacity but it would not be recommended as product to eliminate it since it is not labeled for this use.  Fusilade would be a better option depending on your turfgrass.

  • Asked by Jane from Albany, Ny

    Q
    Should dead/dying crabgrass be pulled up before Sept. overseeding after using Tenacity Herbicide?
    Crabgrass has taken over front lawn. Applied Tenacity in early August and crabgrass white/brown and dying 2 1/2 - 3 weeks later. Now I want to do a fall overseed. Do the massive areas of dead crabgrass (and some nutsedge) all have to be pulled up before roughing up, spreading top soil and reseeding? Need to reseed soon, but the crabgrass won't have withered and died in time. (in Mid-state NY).
    A

    When using Tenacity Herbicide you should remove the thatch layer before reseeding, and it is best to aerate prior to the application as well. You want to be sure that the new seed has the best chance to come in contact with the soil.
