| Abstract/Contents: | "The establishment of Centipedegrass (Eremochloa ophiuroides (Munro) Hack.) and St. Augustine grass (Stenotaphrum secundatum (Walt.) Kuntze) is ofter slow because weed competition may be severe. An experiment was conducted to determine the effects of single and repeated treatments of atrazine (2-chloro-4-(ethylamino)-6-(isopropylamino)-s-triazine and simazine (2-chloro-4,6-bis(ethylamino)-s-triazine) on the establishment of these two species. Single treatments of simazine and atrazine at 1.12 kg/ha applied immediately following sprigging satisfactorily controlled grassy weeds and increased percent ground cover. Except for atrazine on St. Augustine grass, herbicide treatments caused early growth retardation without reducing ground cover at the end of the season. The desirability in appearance of the turf was not generally affected by either chemical at the rates used." |
