| Abstract/Contents: | Examines factors that lead to crabgrass-control failure and discusses the weed's growth and nutritional needs in detail. Also discusses several crabgrass-control topics concerning pre-emergent herbicides. These topics include: activation of a herbicide by rainfall, choice of a herbicide, equipment calibration, herbicide volatilization, UV degradation, adsorption, rainfall and irrigation, runoff and leaching, soil temperature and moisture, microbial activity, clipping removal, and timing of applications. |
