| Abstract/Contents: | "Wet Blade (WB) technology delivers chemical treatments directly to cut portions of the leaf at mowing. This technology has been marketed in industrial vegetation management, yet scarcely evaluated in improved turfgrass. The objective of this trial was to determine the efficacy of WB technology compared to foliar spraying for white clover (Trifolium repens L.) and smooth crabgrass (Digitaria ischaemum Schreb. ex Muhl.) control in lawn turfgrass. Six trials were conducted in two locations; West Florida Research and Education Center in Jay, FL and Turfgrass Research Center in Blacksburg, VA between 2003 and 2005. The interaction of application method and herbicide was not significant for both white clover and smooth crabgrass control. Thus, at sites or evaluation times where application effects were apparent, these trends were consistent across all herbicides evaluated. The wet blade application method was superior or equivalent to foliar spray for smooth crabgrass and white clover control during 78% and 62%, respectively, of the evaluations at three trial sites. All herbicides controlled the target species regardless of application method. WB technology was equivalent or superior to foliar application in the control of white clover and smooth crabgrass." |
