Abstract/Contents: | Profiles postemergent herbicides. Explains that "postemergent herbicides can be selective or nonselective. A selective herbicide is designed to kill specific grasses or broad leaf weeds...A nonselective herbicide...will kill any vegetation to which it is applied." States that "postemergence herbicides target visible weeds. They are used primarily against broadleaf weeds, perennial grasses, and sedges." Suggests that "most broadleaf weeds are best treated in the spring or fall when air temperatures are between 65 and 85° F [Fahrenheit]." Also suggests that "best treatment results occur when weeds are young." |
