Question:Is there any grass so fine in texture that it will not survive arsenate of lead treatment? Would arsenate of lead that is applied to greens have any effect on the grass?
Source of Question:New York
Keywords:TIC Keywords: Herbicide injury; Lead arsenate; Recommendations
Answer/Response:Under some circumstances arsenate of lead, when used in excess, may retard the germination of grass seedlings and may check the growth of some of the more delicate grasses. However, when applied at normal rates, it is perfectly safe to use it on any of the common turf grasses–even the delicate bent grasses used on putting greens.
