| Abstract/Contents: | "Japanese Stiltgrass (JSG Microstegium vimineum) is an invasive weed that is becoming more of a problem in the urban landscape throughout the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast regions of the United States. The annual grassy weed is especially problematic in low light turfgrass areas. In some instances, it has also been observed in moderate sunny areas. This weed has the ability to out-compete many desirable plants, including cool-season turfgrass during summer months. Following cooler periods, JSG declines leaving behind voids or bareground which are also highly undesirable. This trial was undertaken to assess nine herbicide treatments applied once as a post-emergent application on mature JSG. The desirable turfgrass was tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea). This trial was conducted in a home lawn mowed at 4 inches, two times a week. JSG coverage was 90% at the beginning of the trial. Plants were mature and did not show seedheads. Plots were 5 x 5 ft and treatments were arranged in a randomized complete block design with 2 replications. The nine herbicide treatments included: sulfentrazone at two rates (Dismiss at 4 fl oz product/A (0.125 lb a.i./A) and 8 fl oz product/A (0.250 lb ai/A); Fluazifop-p-butyl at 0.09 lb a.i./A (Fusilade at 6 fl oz product/A) + Activator 85 at 0.25%v/v; Sethoxydim at 0.28 lb a.i./A (Segment at 36 fl oz product/A); quinclorac at 12 oz a.i./A (Drive75DF at 16 oz product/A); fenoxaprop-p-ethyl at 0.08 lb a.i./A (Acclaim Extra at 20 fl oz product/A); Clethodim at 0.09 lb a.i./A (Envoy Plus at 12 fl oz product/A) + Activator 85 at 0.25% v/v; Solitaire (quinclorac + sulfentrazone) at 16 oz product/A and mesotrione at 0.25 lb a.i./A (Tenacity at 8 fl oz product/A) + Activator 85 at 0.25% v/v. All treatments were applied on 19 July 2009. In a home lawn situation and one month following application, the treatments providing greater than 90% JSG control and acceptable injury to the tall fescue from a single application were Dismiss, Acclaim and Solitaire. All other herbicides were either too injurious to the tall fescue or did not provide acceptable control of JSG. To my knowledge, this is the first trial evaluating sulfentrazone for JSG control. Future trials should evaluate timing, rates, and other factors affecting these herbicides for post emergent JSG control." |
