Abstract/Contents: | Profiles yellow nutsedge and crabgrass, stating that "above average rainfall...resulted in a good crop of yellow nutsedge for 2006." States that "postemergence control of yellow nutsedge in cool-season turf has traditionally been achieved with bentazon (Basagran), halosulfuron, and somewhat with MSMA. It should be noted that because none of these products provide control of the nutlets, it is likely that dealing with yellow nutsedge will be a multi-year process." Discusses possible methods of crabgrass control, stating that "in 2005, the best preemergence strategies that seem to be the ones that went out 'late' and those that used split applications." Suggests that "monitoring soil temps [temperatures] or growing degree-days as a gauge for preemergence application timing in the spring should help minimize failures." |
