Abstract/Contents: | Presents studies to determine the effectiveness of the herbicide Revolver compared to multiple treatments of the herbicide MSMA (4-Methyl-2-Chlorophenoxyacetic Acid). Reports that "a big increase in herbicidal control (+20%) was observed when Revolver was applied two WAIT [Weeks after initial treatment], as opposed to one WAIT." States that "we determined dallisgrass and bahiagrass distribution using a high-precision GPS [Global Positioning System] and compared to grid-sampled environmental and management fators such as soil-penetration resistance (compation), soil moisture, and mowing height." Concludes that "a combination of improved herbicidal management and the use of older tactics (such as adjusting mowing height) to inhibit the growth of these troublesome weeds could help turfgrass managers deliver improved management where it is needed." |
