Abstract/Contents: | "The objective of this study was to determine the effect of several preemergence herbicides and of fenoxaprop, a postemergence herbicide, on establishment of Kentucky bluegrass (Poa pratensis L.) sod. Fenoxaprop was applied at 0.20 and 0.40 kg.ha-1 28 and 14 days before sod harvest and 14 and 28 days after sod laying. Three preemergence herbicides, bensulide at 8.43 kg.ha-1, DCPA at 11.80 kg.ha-1, and pendimethalin at 1.69 kg.ha-1, were applied over the top of the freshly laid sod. All applications of fenoxaprop at 0.40 kg.ha-1 were phytotoxic by 14 days after application in 1986. No treatments had inhibited rooting at 4 weeks after sod transplant. Only fenoxaprop applied at 0.40 kg.ha-1 14 and 28 days after sod laying inhibited rooting 8 weeks after sod laying in 1986. Fenoxaprop at 0.28 (1987 only) and 0.40 kg.ha-1 caused phytotoxicity on three of the four application dates, and fenoxaprop at 0.20 kg.ha-1 discolored the turf when applied 14 days before sod harvest. None of the treatments affected rooting 4 or 8 weeks after sod laying in 1987." |
