    Q
    Can I use Atrimmec on ficus trees, and is the product injectable?
    I have a very large ficus tree (trunk diameter apx 8-10 ft). The canopy is too high & large to spray. Can I inject Atrimmec into the trunk instead? If so, are there instructions on how much product to use when injecting it?
    A

    Q
    Can Atrimmec Plant Growth Regulator (PGR) be used to reduce seedheads on poa annua (annual bluegrass)?
    A

    The Atrimmec Plant Growth Regulator (PGR) is not a herbicide and will not kill or prevent germination of poa annua. It may have the same "slowing growth" effect on certain weeds as they do on grasses, but it will not reduce the amount of seed heads. 

    Please view our Poa Annnua Treatment Guide for pre and post emergent herbicide recommendations.
