Robert from White House, Tennessee writes
I seeded on the 8th of September and have good growth, but also I have many weeds just starting to pop up. How long should I wait to apply tenacity so that it won't harm the tall Fescue?
For post emergent applications with Tenacity Herbicide with adding a Non Ionic Surfactant, the product label states to wait until the newly germinated turf has been mowed two times or four weeks after emergence (whichever is longer) before treating actively growing weeds.
For pre emergent applications with Tenacity Herbicide, apply Tenacity before or at the same time of seeding for best results. 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 product label for complete application instructions around seeding.
