    Q
    Can I use Pendulum on SeaShore Paspallum grass? If so, how much do I apply to around 6500 sq ft of lawn?
    A
    We are unfamiliar with SeaShore Paspalum grass and it is not listed on the Pendulum 2G product label, so we will not be able to offer much advice. Pendulum 2G, when applied according to the product label, will not usually effect any well established lawns because it is a pre-emergent herbicide. We do recommend that you contact your local cooperative extension office and seek advice from the master gardener before selecting an herbicide for your lawn to be sure you are getting the correct product.

    Q
    Will Pendulum work on Canadian thistle?
    I bought land which was neglected for a long time. There is about half an acre of Canadian thistle, that I would like to get rid of. Right now my husband is cutting all the dry thistle with the brush cutter. I would like to apply preferably in granule form herbicide that will work on the thistle.
    A

    Pendulum 2G Granular Herbicide is a pre-emergent herbicide only that will not kill anything that is already growing.  There is not a good granular post emergent that could be used to treat what you are cutting.  Liquids are best.  Something like Thistledown would be a great option.

    Q
    What can I use for a pre-emergent herbicide to treat for prostrate spurge?
    In my rock landscape, been using Roundup to control it.
    A

     Pendulum 2G Herbicide provides unbeatable overall preemergent control of troublesome weeds including crabgrass, goosegrass, oxalis, henbit, spurge and more. Pendulum 2G does not control existing weeds, rather it prevents new weeds from germinating and growing.

    Q
    Can you apply Pendulum 2G Granular Herbicide on dormant Centipede, is this more effective than Atrazine??
    Terrible poa annua infestation along with spurge
    A

    Yes, Pendulum 2G Granular Herbicide can be applied to dormant lawns to prevent the listed weeds from germinating.  It will not control anything already emerged and is more professional grade than Atrazine.  For poa annua control it should be applied in the fall and then again early spring.  We have a helpful guide here.

    Q
    Does Pendulum 2G Granular Herbicide control Japanese stiltgrass, and if so, at what rate?
    A

    A pre-emergent herbicide such as Pendulum Aqua Cap would help with prevention but will not treat actively growing Japanese Stiltgrass. We would suggest a selective post-emergent such as Acclaim. Acclaim Extra is a selective post-emergence herbicide that controls annual and perennial grasses in turf including Japanese Stiltgrass. Please refer to product label for specific applications to your turfgrass.

  • Asked by Harcharn from Glendale Heights, Il
    02/19/2017
    Q
    What is good time for IL to apply Pendulum 2G - 40 lb?
    Is it safe for flower beds and tomatoes. What is good time to spread. I have 4000 sq feet yard, how much I need the product and how often it must be repeated. There are lots of weeds in flower beds and tomato beds. Is it safe applying there too.? And do I need to spread fertilizers the same time or some time later?
    A

    Application timing of Pendulum 2G - 40 lb. will vary by region and the best person to ask about application timing is your local master gardener who works at your local cooperative extension office.  This is a pre-emergent product only and will not kill any weeds that are actively growing, it only prevents them from emerging. It cannot be used around anything edible but can be used in lawns and ornamental landscapes, how much you use depends on the type of grass you are applying it to and the program you are using, generally pre-emergents are applied 2 to 3 times per year.  40 lbs can treat just under 1/2 an acre when used at the 100 lbs per acre usage rate. Please take a few minutes to read the Pendulum 2G product label to find the usage rate and program that is right for your needs.

  • Asked by Kerwin from Hillman Michigan
    03/07/2022
    Q
    How long after applying Pendulum 2G Granular Herbicide can switchgrass or bluestem be planted? 6-8 weeks after pendulum2g is used as a pre-emergent
    Applied Pendulum 2G about 6-8 weeks ago, can I plant the switchgrass and bluestem without the pre emergent affecting the growth?
    A

    Pendulum 2G Granular Herbicide can only be applied to established landscpe beds with tolerant plants and ornamentals listed on the product label. It is recommended to wait 3 months before seeding or planting any new seed or plants in the treated areas. 

    The product label does not list bluestem or switch grasses as a tolerant plant or ornamental therefore we cannot guarantee that this application would be safe. It is recommended to test a small area of the not listed plants and observing the plants for 1 to 2 months for possible injury.

    We also recommend consulting with a Master Gardener in your area for recommendations on what is safe to use.

  • Asked by Robert from Denver Co.
    03/16/2022
    Q
    Will Pendulum 2G Granular Herbicide kill or control crabgrass? If so, when should it be applied?
    Does Home Depot sell it?
    A

    Pendulum 2G Granular Herbicide is a pre-emergent herbicide for crabgrass as well as many other weeds listed on the product label that is applied before weeds germinate in the soil. Pre emergents like Pendulum 2G do not kill existing weeds that are actively growing. 

    For prevention of crabgrass, you should apply a pre-emergent before your soil temperature is 55 degrees or higher for 3 or more days in a row in the spring. 
     
    This is a professional grade product, so it is not sold in regular stores. We do always have Free Shipping to your door.
     
    You can learn more about post-emergent crabgrass control in this article.

  • Asked by Sean from Lyman
    03/17/2022
    Q
    Does Pendulum 2G Granular Herbicide prevent poa annua (annual bluegrass)?
    A

    Yes, Pendulum 2G Granular Herbicide is labeled for pre emergent control of poa annua (annual bluegrass) and many other listed weeds on the product label. Pre emergents do not control exisiting weeds or actively growing weeds.
    It is recommended that pre emergents be applied in early spring and then again in late fall for weed prevention. Please refer to the product label for the application rates and other information based on your type of turfgrass.

    We also have our Poa Annua Treatment Guide and the Prevention Guide that will help.

  • Asked by Ms from Raleigh, Nc

    Q
    When is the optimal time to apply Barricade in Raleigh, NC to prevent poa annua germination in fescue?
    I plan to overseed my fescue lawn in late August. Poa Annua has become a bigger nuisance each year. It's my understanding that Poa begins germinating in the fall in this area. How long after overseeding should I wait before applying Barricade? Are there other products that would be safer/more effective to use on Fescue in preventing Poa germination?
    A

    You may contact your local cooperative extension office to determine the correct timing of the application as this will vary greatly from region to region.
     
    Pendimethalin products like Pendulum 2G Granular Herbicide are the most recommended to use in the fall.  Some poa annua strains are showing resistance to Prodiamine (Barricade) so it is not highly recommended.

  • Asked by Joe from Ft Lauderdale, Fl
    10/12/2022
    Q
    What setting should I use on my Scott's Classic Drop Spreader to apply Pendulum 2G Granular Herbicide?
    A

    Unfortunately, we do not have the spreader settings for that specific combo, and since the manufacturer does not list that spreader on their bag we are unsure what the exact setting would be. Due to the thousands of granules on the market and just as many different types of spreaders, there isn't a master list that exists. You may want to try calling the manufacturer of your spreader or the chemical itself directly, to see if anyone on their staff has that info. Otherwise, you will want to calibrate your spreader to the product you are using and its application rates. Please take a moment to view our video on How to Calibrate Your Spreader HERE

  • Asked by Marion from Tustin, California
    04/04/2023
    Q
    Will Pendulum harm my Kurapia (lippia nodifolia) ?
    A

    There will not be any herbicides specifically labeled for use on Kurrapia. The Pendulum 2G Granular Herbicide and pre-emergents in general, are only for preventing weeds from seed and can not damage existing established growing plants unless off-label and incorrect applications are made to cause damage. Pre-emergents in general should not be applied to anything that has not been established for at least several months to avoid any potential damage or stunting of the plant. You can reach out to the creator of the kurrapia on their website to ask if they have feedback on the use of Pendulum or other products on that ground cover.
