Best practices for getting the most out of
Tenacity® herbicide.

The job of maintaining beautiful fairways and roughs is hard enough. Add the frustration of hard-to-control weeds and unwanted grasses popping up and you really have extra work on your hands. So when you turn to a product like Tenacity® herbicide for help, we want to make sure you are able to use the product to its fullest potential. Following these "best practices" is a great way to start:

Basic Application

-Weed control with post-emergence applications requires a second application after two to three weeks. Apply to young, actively growing weeds along with a NIS type surfactant.

-Apply to less than four-tiller-size crabgrass and goosegrass.

-For extended pre-emergence control, apply with a grass pre-emergence herbicide such as Barricade® herbicide, except when used for weed control in new seedings.

-To reduce movement into sensitive species such as bentgrass, withhold traffic in the treated area until spray has dried, then irrigate lightly to remove product from turf foliage before resuming normal irrigation.

Turf Safety

-Bentgrass, Poa annua, kikuyugrass, zoysiagrass, seashore paspalum, and bermudagrass are sensitive to Tenacity applications. Avoid spraying these turf types unless control and/or injury can be tolerated.

-Do not use on golf course putting greens and maintain a five-foot buffer between treated areas and bentgrass or Poa annua greens.

-Clean sprayer thoroughly after any application of Tenacity if you plan to use the same equipment to apply other products to bentgrass and bentgrass/Poa annua turf areas.

-Tenacity must be applied at reduced rates (4 fl oz/A or less) if tank is mixed with atrazine, bentazon, or simazine.
