Abstract/Contents:"A replicated experiment was conducted in Tifgreen bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon x C. transvaalensis) to evaluate season-long crabgrass (Digitaria ciliaris) control with selected ready-to-apply preemergence herbicide weed and feed fertilizer products that are readily obtainable by homeowners. The treatments were applied at (a) the 1X rate listed on the product labels, (b) a 2X rate and (c) 1X followed by a 1X sequential rate 6 weeks after the initial application. Most of these products suggest a 1X sequential when there are heavy weed infestations. The fertilizer products evaluated included Sta-Green Crab-Ex 30-2-5 plus dithiopyr 0.17G at 0.25 lb ai/A, 0.5 lb ai/A, and 0.25 lb ai/A + 0.25 lb ai/A; Howard Johnson's 15-5-10 with prodiamine 0.20G at 0.35 lb ai/A, 0.7 lb ai/A, and 0.35 lb ai/A + 0.35 lb ai/A; Ferti-lome Weed and Feed 10-0-14 with simazine 0.63G at 1.75 lb ai/A, 3.5 lb ai/A, and 1.75 lb ai/A + 1.75 lb ai/A; Miracle Gro 30-3-4 plus pendimethalin 1.12G at 1.5 lb ai/A, 3.0 lb ai/A, and 1.5 lb ai/A + 1.5 lb ai/A; Scott's Turf Builder 30-3-4 with pendimethalin 1.29G at 1.5 lb ai/A, 3.0 lb ai/A, and 1.5 lb ai/A + 1.5 lb ai/A. Pendulum (pendimethalin) 2G at 3.0 lb ai/A and an untreated control were also included for standards. Crabgrass control and bermudagrass turf density were evaluated 36, 65, 99, 128, and 160 days after the initial applications on March 10, 2004. The Ferti-lome with simazine product provided acceptable crabgrass control (>70%) only to the first evaluation date (36 DAT). All other treatments provided acceptable control through the 99 DAT evaluations. Of the 1X single applications Scott's pendimethalin 1.29G (88%), Pendulum 2G (75%), and Howard Johnson's prodiamine 0.2G (70%) gave acceptable control to 128 DAT and only the Scott's (88%) and Pendulum (75%) provided acceptable control through 160 DAT. Of the 2X and sequential applications only Miracle Gro sequential (68%) and the Ferti-lome 2X and sequential applications (<25%) failed to give greater than 83% control through the 160 DAT evaluation. Bermudagrass density was acceptable with all treatments with the exception of the untreated standard and the Ferti-lome with simazine treatments due to crabgrass competition."
