Abstract/Contents:"MON-4620 has been shown to inhibit seedheads and reduce vegetative growth of cool-season grasses for 6 weeks. Seedhead development is synchronous in perennial cool-season grasses and usually occurs during late April or May. Optimum application timing for combination seedhead and vegetative control was during the month of April in 1982. Earlier applications in late March were effective but resulted in delay of spring green-up. Applications in early May were too late for seedhead control, however, vegetative control was acceptable and seedheads could have been mechanically removed. Relative to seedhead ontogeny, applications before seedhead differentiation prevented seedhead formation. Applications after differentiation and before elongation prevented seedhead elongation. Applications after elongation had begun resulted in shortened seedstalks that were considered objectionable in an unmowed area. MON-4621 (flowable) and MON-4623 (granular) were found to be effective with crown, soil surface and soil subsurface placement. Leaf applications were not effective. Thus MON-4620 appears to be xylem but not phloem mobile. The ideal application site appears to be the turfgrass crown or thatch area."
