    Q
    Can I tank mix Tenacity and Certainty together in the same tank sprayer for one application? If so, what would be the mixing rate for a 1000 sq ft lawn?
    A

    Unfortunately, there has not been any testing done by the manufacturer of Tenacity on the compatibility of tank mixing Tenacity Herbicide and Certainty Herbicide. We would suggest doing a small compatibility test in glass jar to see if the products separate or clump in any way. The Certainty Herbicide product label advises to add water to the tank ½ way then add the Certainty first and then the Tenacity, shake vigorously and fill the remaining way with water and shake again.

    I have a normal turf lawn, and am interested in getting rid of the broad leaf weeds. I need to cover for a lawn of 3 acres.
    A
    Certainty should only be used on certain types of warm season grasses.  We can better answer your question if you can tell us what type of grass you mainly are trying to control the broad leaf weed in?

    Q
    When and what should I use to treat brown patch in St. Augustine grass in Texas?
    We had brown patch last fall and did not treat it. There are several huge patches in once acre of St. Augustine grass. We were told by the extension office to use Daconil and Immunox. I'm not seeing a suggestion or sale of these two products on your web site. What do you recommend for brown patch? We want to treat it now in the Houston, Texas area, so we do not have this in the spring-summer. Thanks
    A
    While we do carry many products to treat brown patch due to customer demand, our area of expertise is structural pests. We recommend that you either follow the advice of the extension office or call a landscape company that specializes in St. Augustine grass and ask them to come give you a free estimate (they usually will tell you what product they would use).

    Q
    When is the best time to apply Certainty to kill Tall Fescue?
    I want to kill my Tall Fescue. I've read it is a "cool season grass." What is the best time of year to apply Certainty? In addition, is a surfactant necessary or does it simply aid the absorption? I have about 1/2 acre to treat Thanks
    A

    You should mix Certainty with a surfactant to increase its effectiveness. 

    It would be best to call your local county extension office for when to apply any type of herbicides or insecticides in your area.  They would know better than we would since we are not the manufacturer and we live in Georgia.  They will know exactly when you should apply it in your specific county.

    You can find your local county extension office information here:  http://npic.orst.edu/pest/countyext.htm

    Certainty Herbicide cannot be used inside Veggie gardens. It can be used around the outside perimeter. Your best bet inside would be to spot treat with round up.

    Q
    When do you apply Certainty to sticker bushes?

    Certainty Herbicide is a post-emergent herbicide so this means it only kills weeds that are already emerged from the soil. You can spray Certainty Herbicide on a yard or target weed whenever the weed is actively growing. Refer to the product label for mix rates and cover areas.

  • Asked by Timmy from Texas
    03/15/2021
    Q
    Can I spray Certainty Herbicide - 1.25 oz. now if my grass will be greening soon?
    I am in Texas.
    A

    Certainty Herbicide can be used on established warm season grasses to control actively growing weeds. Ideally you would want to use it while the grass is still dormant, or after it has greened up completely to avoid any extra stress on the lawn. Grasses that go dormant in winter are most sensitive during their transition periods so this is why its recommended to avoid spraying during this time. If you find you need to treat during the transition, be aware some temporary discoloration or stunting could occur.
