Abstract/Contents: | Discusses potential crabgrass control methods, stating that "Drive is very safe on most young seedling turf to remove crabgrass and some broadleaf weeds." Explains that "turfgrass visual quality is reduced under high temperature primarily because leaves begin to die off. This regular leaf death is the result of a process that involves the production of active oxygen species (superoxide, hydrodgen peroxide, etc.), similar to the aging process that humans experience." Briefly discusses fertilizer timing and rates. |
