Abstract/Contents:"Postemergence herbicides such as 2,4-D, MCPP and others are generally much more effective at controlling weeds when sprayed on the foliage than when applied as a granular herbicide/fertilizer combination product. Furthermore, when applied as a granule, these broadleaf herbicides more effectively control weeds when applied to moist foliage rather than dry turf. The reason for this is that most postemergence herbicides require foliar uptake. However, new herbicides can be taken up through plant root systems may provide improved weed control as granules but this has not been sufficiently explored. The objectives of this experiment were to 1) determine which herbicides most effectively control ground ivy and white clover, 2) determine the best method of herbicide applications, and 3) determine if any herbicide by application method interactions exist. Data from both weed species support that 1) when using traditional broadleaf herbicides that liquid applications are better than granular applications for controlling weeds, 2) granular applications to moist turf are more effective than granular applications to dry turf, and 3) new herbicides with root activity can control susceptible weeds equally well as liquid or granular applications. NOTE: State registration for Imprelis was cancelled and federal registration was later cancelled by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. This cancellation does not allow the continued use of Imprelis herbicide in the U.S. Any such applications are illegal."
