Abstract/Contents:"Early spring Preemergence herbicides are often as necessary in Indiana to prevent troublesome annual grassy weeds such as crabgrass and goosegrass. However, all preemergence herbicides (except Tupersan) work to prevent the emergence of turfgrass seeds as well as weed seeds, so a turf manager cannot use a preemergence herbicide if they plan on seeding in the spring. Postemergence herbicides can also be used to control crabgrass and other weeds in spring when seeding turf. The objective of this experiment was to evaluate six products at three different application timings for use in establishing tall fescue from seed in the spring. Tall fescue coverage was highest (>55%) when Tenacity was applied at 8 oz/A on the day of seeding or the day of emergence, and when Tupersan was applied at seeding at 12 lb/A. Crabgrass coverage when rated on 11 August was lowest for Tenacity, Tupersan and Drive XLR8 when applied at seeding; Tenacity, Drive and SquareOne applied at emergence; and Tenacity applied at 2WAE. The purpose of this experiment was to test the efficacy of a single application of specific products at a specific timing. However, many of the product labels recommend more than a single application for best results. Turf managers should use this research to help choose the optimum product and timing for an application with the intention to scout the location and make a follow-up application for weed control at a later date for best results and optimum establishment.
