Postemergent Herbicide Solutions to Control Springtime Weeds

May 21, 2010

The spring rains and warmer temperatures encourage healthy turfgrass growth but turfgrass professionals know that moisture and heat also create ideal conditions for challenging, invasive weeds.

Fortunately, BASF offers extensive postemergent herbicide solutions to control sedges, broadleaf weeds, and grassy weeds in landscape bedding and turfgrass.

Liquid quinclorac-based Drive® XLR8 herbicide provides fast and effective control of the most common broadleaf and grassy weeds, including crabgrass – even in mature stages. It is quickly absorbed by weeds and rainfast in 30 minutes. Drive XLR8 herbicide can be tank mixed with other postemergent broadleaf herbicides, or with preemergent herbicides, such as Pendulum® AquaCap™ herbicide, for annual grassy weed control.

Onetime® herbicide combines the liquid quinclorac-based technology in Drive® XLR8  herbicide with MCPP-P and dicamba to control more than 70 annual broadleaf and grassy weeds. Learn how its three-way formulation can broaden your weed control spectrum with the Onetime herbicide online training module. Watch here.

Segment® herbicide gives turfgrass professionals flexible, broad-spectrum control of grassy weeds in both turfgrass and landscape bedding areas. Featuring active ingredient, sethoxydim, it is a highly flexible tank-mix partner. When tank mixed with Basagran® T/O herbicide or Image® 70 DG herbicide, users control challenging sedges, including yellow nutsedge, in addition to grassy weeds.

Identify your weed challenge, select and apply a BASF postemergent herbicide solution, and enjoy the peace of mind that comes with performance.
