Question

On our golf course we have numerous areas that contain native grasses. We really like the contrast that they create, but sometimes they can get weedy and in turn minimize their value. What herbicides are available to me for weed control in these areas?

Answer

Everyone has questions. And BASF Professional Turf has answers.

We are very limited in these types of situations. Preemergent herbicides like Pendulum® herbicide are very effective in areas where we have minimal or no annual grasses that must re-seed. They can provide effective control of annual grasses and summer annual broadleaf weeds. Many of the postemergence broadleaf herbicides can be used; check the label prior to use. Perennial weeds need to be spot sprayed with a non-selective herbicide like glyphosate for adequate control.
