How do we make sense out of all of these?
![Page 6: Making Sense of All the Post Emergent Herbicide Options in Turf](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070315/5552b9e9b4c9052e568b535f/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Overview
1. Making sense of all the Choices a. Review the “standard” 3 – way mixes
b. Look at “newer kids” on the block
c. Review “alternative” herbicide mixes
2. Review the common weeds and match the herbicides to the weeds.
3. Maximizing weed kill – other factors.
4. Go through a few scenarios.

These both add 2,4-DP, a sister compound of 2,4-D which has no effect on weed control.
Getting rid of the MCPP and using an ester formulation lowers the signal word because esters don’t cause irreversible eye damage

Overview
1. Making sense of all the Choices a. Review the “standard” 3 – way mixes
b. Look at “new kids” on the block
c. Review “alternative” herbicide mixes
2. Review the common weeds and match the herbicides to the weeds.
3. Maximizing weed kill – other factors.
4. Go through a few scenarios.

General control guidelines
1. Treat healthy weeds2. Increase turf vigor3. Do irrigate before treating4. Don’t irrigate after 5. Don’t mow before6. Repeat treatments 2-4 weeks typical

10. Amine vs. Ester?
Amines are better in warmer weather.
Esters are better in cooler weather.
Esters are “safer” to humans.

Horsepower
“Danger” Signal word
• Dimethyl Salt of MCPA
• Trimethyl Salt of Triclopyr
• Dicamba
Cool Power
“Caution” Signal Word
• Iso-octyl Ester of MCPA
• Butoxy Ester of Triclopyr
• Dicamba
Amines vs. Esters – Signal Word
Causes irreversible eye damage!
Causes moderate eye irritation.

Scenario #1 – Unirrigated site loaded with False Dandelion
![Page 69: Making Sense of All the Post Emergent Herbicide Options in Turf](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070315/5552b9e9b4c9052e568b535f/html5/thumbnails/69.jpg)
Scenario #1 - Steps
1. Irrigate
2. Fertilize
3. Get grass and weeds healthy and growing
4. Make 2 applications of “Standard” 3-Way mix in Late Summer/Early Fall.
5. If you have resistant weeds, use a product with Drive (e.g. Q4 Plus)
![Page 70: Making Sense of All the Post Emergent Herbicide Options in Turf](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070315/5552b9e9b4c9052e568b535f/html5/thumbnails/70.jpg)
Low N fertility favors clover
Scenario #2 – Neglected lawn that is irrigated. Weeds: clover, common dandelion, plantain.
![Page 71: Making Sense of All the Post Emergent Herbicide Options in Turf](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070315/5552b9e9b4c9052e568b535f/html5/thumbnails/71.jpg)
Scenario #2 - Steps
1. Irrigate, if needed, and fertilize.
2. Get grass and weeds healthy and growing.
3. Make 2 applications of SpeedZone, Q4 Plus, or Escalade 2. (i.e. you need to add Carfentrazone, Quinclorac, Triclopyr, or Fluroxypyr to get good clover control)
4. Apply in cool weather if you use esters.

Scenario #3 - Steps
1. Wait until fall.
2. Fertilize, if necessary.
3. Make two applications in fall of:– Drive + MSO (or add drive to 3 – way)– Q4 Plus– If problems, try Sapphire (Penoxulam)– Last resort – SpeedZone (5 pts/A) + Banvel
(0.66 pts/A+ Drive 75 DF(1 lb/A)
Note: SpeedZone only has 0.03 oz ai/1,000 sq. ft. of dicamba and the Banvel adds 0.12 oz ai/1,000.

Sum Up
1. I.D. your weeds and grasses
2. Pick your herbicide and read the label.i. Amine vs. Ester?
ii. Will chemicals kill weeds?
iii. Are your grasses sensitive to this herbicide?
3. Get grass and weeds growing, if necessary
4. Make 2 applications at the correct time of year (e.g. watch for leaf out with esters).
