Q

Is Quali-Pro T-Nex the same as Podium and Primo MAXX? What is the difference?

Quali-Pro T-Nex is just a generic of the Primo Maxx with slightly more active ingredient and a different manufacturer, allowing for different rates to be used.

Q

When should I stop using T-Nex for the season?
I live in Ohio with a KBG lawn that I keep at 1". Lawn is still actively growing. I hit my GDD threshold on 10/26 and made my last App for the year. Looking for input for next season. Thanks

A

The grass needs to be actively growing for a T-Nex application to be effective and useful. So if you are applying now, that would likely be your last application for the year since the T-Nex can last 8 weeks, and you would not apply after frost.

Q

Should I mix liquid iron with my T-Nex application to my midnight Blue KBG to prevent discoloration?
I plan on doing a split application since it's my first time applying T-Nex. I'm worried about over applying so I thought I'd take the proper dose and divide it by two and go about a week or two apart to see if any issues with my technique. Thought liquid iron would help with any discoloration.

A

You can add iron (or quick-release Nitrogen) to an application of T-Nex Plant Growth Regulator in accordance with the product label to reduce any potential discoloration. Discoloration to actively growing turfgrass should last only about a week, if there is any at all. Typically you would not reduce…

You can add iron (or quick-release Nitrogen) to an application of T-Nex Plant Growth Regulator in accordance with the product label to reduce any potential discoloration. Discoloration to actively growing turfgrass should last only about a week, if there is any at all. Typically you would not reduce the label rates when applying T-Nex unless the turf were growing under stress from factors such as low fertility or compaction. If you can tolerate some discoloration, then you can actually apply up to twice the listed rate (1.2 oz per 1,000 sq ft on KBG) to get control for up to 8 weeks.

We recommend that you calibrate your sprayer with just water if you are not sure how much water you need to cover your lawn. We have a video here to assist you with how to calibrate your sprayer.

T-Nex Plant Growth Regulator should be applied when the lawn if actively growing and will last for 8 weeks. Depending on the type of turfgrass you have, the application rates should be adjusted based on the grass height at application. Please view the Application Rate Table on the product label for application rates for your turfgrass. The lower the height of cut of the particular turfgrass species, the less material is required to provide the desired turf growth regulator effect.
