  • Asked by Stephen from Hyde Park, Ny
    10/11/2018
    Q
    Can Tenacity be applied in the morning with dew still on the lawn?
    A

    Yes, Tenacity Herbicide can be applied with morning dew on the lawn. Morning dew will not lessen the effects of Tenacity. In some circumstances, a more moist soil will make for better root uptake. You are safe to make the Tenacity application in the cooler times of the day when temps are below 85 degrees.

  • Asked by David from Woodmere
    07/26/2017
    Q
    Can Tenacity Herbicide be mixed with other herbicides such as Sedgehammer or Speedzone?
    Can I mix with Iron?
    A

    Tenacity Herbicide states the following in reference to tank mixing. We always recommend doing a small tank mix test before application. 

    "Tenacity has been tested in tank mixtures with Barricade 65WG Herbicide (prodiamine), Vanquish® (dicamba), Turflon® ester (riclopyr), Spotlight™ (fluroxypyr), Quicksilver™ (carfentrazone), Basagran® (bentazon), Princep® (simazine), and AAtrex® (atrazine) for safety and efficacy on turfgrasses. Tenacity must be applied at reduced rates (4 fl. oz./A or less) if tank mixed with atrazine, bentazon or simazine. Other tank mixture partners may be safe but have not been tested. Turf managers wanting to tank mix Tenacity with other herbicides should test on a small basis for compatibility, safety and efficacy before treating large areas. See product labels for directions and precautions"

  • Asked by Emma from Jamestown
    09/06/2019
    Q
    After you apply Tenacity and the weeds turn from white to brown, do you dig up the dead weeds?
    A

    You do not have to remove dead plant matter after using Tenacity Herbicide, however if you plan to overseed, then it is a good idea to rake out dead plants since you may need to dethatch or aerate before putting down your new seed.

  • Asked by Justin from North Ridgeville, Oh
    07/28/2019
    Q
    Will morning dew activate Tenacity when applied as a post emergent?
    I read that Tenacity needs .15” of rain to activate within 10 days of activation. We aren't expected to get any rain within that time but we have had morning dew every day since my application. Do I need to water my lawn anyway?
    A

    When using Tenacity Herbicide as a post emergent, it should not be watered in.  It should be applied when there is no rain in the forecast for 24 hours after application.

  • Asked by Brian from Louisville Kentucky
    04/12/2019
    Q
    Can you use Tenacity Herbicide around/in flower beds and ornamentals like Liriope?
    A

    We would not recommend Tenacity Herbicide be applied to flower beds and ornamental plants. According to the product label: “Avoid over-spray or drift of spray applications onto ornamentals or flower beds and gardens. Roses and daylilies are sensitive plant species. Avoid applications over the top of exposed roots of trees and ornamentals." A product that can safely be applied to Liriope, landscaped areas, over the top of ornamentals is Fusilade II Herbicide.

  • Asked by Rodolfo from Yakima, Wa
    09/15/2016
    Q
    How do I apply Tenacity only to a couple of small Patches of bent grass on my lawn?
    How do I apply a small amount. What is the mixture ratio of water and tenacity to cover this small area - both patches are maybe 8 feet square?
    A

    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. If you can acurrately measure a smaller amount it could be halved to do 500 sq ft but anything smaller would not be recommended.

  • Asked by David from Hermitage Tn
    08/05/2019
    Q
    Is Tenacity safe to use around ornamental plants and shrubs such as coneflower, hostas, rhododendron?
    Crabgrass has infested our ornamental beds which also have sky pencil hollies, black eyed susans, clethra and spirea. Can I safely spray the crabgrass without killing the ornamentals? Thanks.
    A

    Tenacity Herbicide should not be used within 3 feet of desirable trees or ornamentals.   If treating actively growing grassy weeds, Fertilome Over The Top II Grass Killer can be used. The manufacturer recommends that you use caution during application because the spray can cause damage if it comes into direct contact with foliage.

    And if so, how long should they stay off the lawn?

    Tenacity Herbicide is safe to use in a yard where pets and children will frequent as long as they are out of the area during the application. They can safely return after the area has dried, typically at least 4-6 hours after application.

  • Asked by Aball from Annapolis, Maryland
    08/04/2019
    Q
    When I am finished using Tenacity Herbicide, how do I dispose of it?
    Curious if I dump this down the drain, on the lawn, in a storm drain, or if it needs to go to the dump. I live close to a creek which dumps into a river.
    A

    We do always recommend that only mix the amount of Tenacity Herbicide you can use at a time.  To dispose of any remaining you would not pour down any drain, but can use to go over some of the areas you were treating or you can pour into the dirt right next to the foundation of the home to prevent any run off to the nearby creek.
