    Q
    Does Prodiamine work on stilt grass? And will a summer application be effective before mulching?
    A

    Prodiamine 65 WDG (Generic Barricade) is not labeled to prevent stiltgrass and we are unaware of a pre-emergent labeled for it though there is an article here by University of Ohio that lists some.  Depending on your lawn type Acclaim is a post emergent that can be used for it.

    Q
    Pre and post emergent options for hybrid bermuda grass?
    Front lawn is sodded celebration Bermuda, back lawn is planted Bermuda triangle hybrid. Front lawn sod was laid 10 months ago, back lawn was planted 4 months ago. Sodded lawn primarily looks good, has a few crabgrass and broadleaf weeds. Planted lawn with lots of broadleaf weeds and crabgrass. Planning on first fall pre-emergent application soon, considering Prodiamine 65 WDG. What is a good recommended broadleaf post emergent I can mix with it and apply in a tow behind sprayer for both lawns?
    A

    Prodiamine 65 WDG is a great selection for your Bermuda turf, it controls many different broadleaf and grassy weeds. For killing the broadleaf weeds I would use 3-way max and for the crabgrass use Drive xlr8.

  • Asked by Kevin from Edmond
    09/18/2018
    Q
    Is Prodiamine's annual maxiumum affected by other pre-emergent use?
    I'll be using Prodiamine (half max in Sept, half max in Feb), along with Princep in Oct, Pennant Magnum in early April, and Dimension in June and late July. I'll be using a bit less than the various annual recommended maximums for all of these and wondered if by using so many I will cause turf damage.
    A

    The amount per acre per year is for the Prodiamine 65 WDG (Generic Barricade)  not the calculation of other pre-emergents used on the turf at other times of the year. If each product is applied at the appropriate times and as directed on the product label for your turf species type, it should not cause injury to the established turf.

    Q
    When can I reseed after applying Prodiamine 65 WDG?
    A

    Prodiamine 65 WDG will inhibit the development of turfgrass species overseeded too soon after application.  It will depend upon the rate of product used per acre as to how many months you need to wait before reseeding.  At the minimum use rate, you need to wait 4 months before reseeding. Please refer to the product label for complete instructions on reseeding.

  • Asked by Carolyn from Little Rock, Ar
    10/20/2018
    Q
    Is it safe to spray Prodiamine 65 WDG over ground cover such as Asian jasmine, blue Pacific junipers, and sedum?
    We are over-run with spotted spurge. Would you suggest spraying this in both the Spring and Fall?
    A

    Prodiamine 65 WDG is a great pre-emergent for prostrate spurge only, and there is a long list of tolerant ornamentals starting on page 15 of the product label. There are several types of Jasmine, Juniper, and sedum listed as tolerant. You may want to consider using Snapshot in your ornamental beds, instead, though. This pre-emergent label lists over 300 tolerant ornamental species and will prevent several types of spurge including both prostrate and spotted spurge. You can apply either of these products in Spring or Fall, although you definitely want to apply in Spring and possibly again in mid-summer for spurge prevention. Spurge also prefers high moisture areas, so be sure you address any drainage issues to help prevent this weed from thriving. Keep in mind that pre-emergents will only prevent new plants from germinating, not kill existing plants.

    Q
    Can I use Prodiamine 65 WDG now before placing sod in late April and have success?
    The area is free of grass now but has areas of dormant crabgrass. I want to treat the area by the first week of February, place approximately 2" of imported non-treated top soil, and place sod in late April. Is this a plan that would work? Thank You.
    A

    You need to wait at least four months after applying Prodiamine 65 WDG before you can put down new sod. There is a chart on page 11 of the product label indicating minimum wait times depending on your location and the rate used. Depending on what kind of grass you are putting down, Tenacity Herbicide can be used just before or at the same time you put down new seed or sod.

    Q
    What is the dilution rate for Prodiamine at 1lb per acre when using a 300 gallon tank that covers 4 acres?
    My 300 gallon tank will cover 4 Acres
    A

    Depending upon where you are located in the country and what type of turf you have, you are generally going to want to do a split application of Prodiamine 65 WDG twice a year to get a longer residual that will last year round.  You can use anywhere from 0.5 lbs-0.75 lbs per application, once in the spring and once in the fall.  If your 300 gallon tank covers 4 acres then you could use anywhere from 2-3 lbs per 300 gallons per application doing two applications per year.

    Q
    Can I thatch weeks after putting down Prodiamine 65WDG? If not, do I need to reappy?
    A

    It is always best to perform any type of maintenance such as dethatching before you put down a pre-emergent like Prodiamine 65 WDG (Generic Barricade)  so that you do not interrupt the barrier and, therefore, get inconsistent weed control. You could potentially dethatch with a hand rake after watering in the Prodiamine application with at least 1/2 inch of water. Allow that watering to dry completely before dethatching.

    A

    Is there any benefit to mixing two pre-emergents such as Prodiamine 65 WDG and Surflan Pro?

  • Asked by Volkan from Viirginia
    01/06/2020
    Q
    Prodiamine 65 WDG (Generic Barricade) on newly seeded grass, what does established turf grass mean?
    I have over seeded last fall September 2019, and planning to use pre-emergent Prodiamine to control Japanese stilt grass this spring April 2020. On the label it says use for "established turf grasses" . theoretically the grass seeded last fall is not considered established until after 2-3 years, correct? Is it still safe to use it on the over seeded area from last fall?
    A

    Per the Prodiamine 65 WDG (Generic Barricade) product label: To reduce the potential to injure overseeded turf, wait 60 days after seeding or until after the second mowing, whichever is longer, before applying Prodiamine 65WDG.  So enough time has passed for you to use though we will say that Prodiamine is not labeled to prevent Japanese Stiltgrass and there is no pre-emergent that we are aware that will.
