    Q
    Crabgrass control in ground cover
    Hi, I contacted you last year about several issues in my ground cover juniper bushes. You suggested Snapshot and that helped alot. My problem is I also have crabgrass in this ground cover and while it controlled most weeds, it didn't help at all with crabgrass. Is there another product you can recommend that I can use in addition to the Snapshot that would be better for the crabgrass? I don't want to kill the ground cover just control weeds and crabgrass. What is the best month to apply the pre-emergent for east Tennessee? I think last year I spread it at the end of March.
    A

    Fusilade is a good option to use for crabgrass and other grassy weeds in juniper as directed on the product label.  As far as timing for a pre-emergent like Snapshot, it should be applied before soil temperatures reach 55 degrees.  If the Snapshot did not prevent the crabgrass it sounds like it was applied too late.  You may also contact your local cooperative extension office to determine the correct timing of the application as this will vary greatly from region to region.

    Q
    Can this Snapshot 2.5 TG be applied to a fescue lawn and to mondo grass as a pre emergent?
    I get a ground cover lacy weed in my lawn that I can't get rid of.
    A

    Snapshot 2.5 TG is not labeled to be used in any turf grasses. It is meant to be used in landscape beds and around trees. There are many different types of weeds in your area that would fit this description.  We would most likely need an identification before recommending a product so that we can get the one that best fits your needs.

    Q
    Will snapshot still work after 9
    A

    Snapshot 2.5 TG is a pre-emergent herbicide that needs to be activated with about 0.5 inches of rainfall or irrigation. If you are expecting extremely heavy rains, then it would be best to delay your application so that your barrier is not disturbed. Snapshot should be activated within 3 days of application for best results. Repeat applications at 150 lbs per Acre or higher should not be made sooner than 60 days, per the product label.

    Q
    Can Snapshot be used with planting of Nassella trichotoma?
    A

    Snapshot 2.5 TG - 50 lbs. does not list Nassella trichotoma as tolerant to an application. This does not appear to be something common to the US so the manufacturer does appear to have tested Snapshot around it.

    Q
    Can Snapshot TG hurt your skin if there is a slight wind when applying?
    A

    Snapshot 2.5 TG is safe when used according to the product label. Ideally you would want to apply on a day with no wind to minimize excess drift of the product into non target areas. If you are wearing the proper PPE (personal protective equipment) as listed on the Product Label- long sleeve shirt, long pants, shoes plus socks- then there should be minimal chance of the product contacting your skin. If some does blow and touch your skin, just rinse and wash it with soapy water.

    Q
    What happen if Snapshot is applied without water? Will it still be effective? Will it lose effectiveness if I water it the next day?
    A

    Snapshot should always be watered in (so that it can reach the soil level) to help stop the weeds from germinating. Please make sure the Snapshot is used at another time when you are ready to apply water. It will not lose it's effectiveness, but the prodcut works better when it is watered in.

    Can Snapshot 2.5 TG be used for planting bare root blueberry plants?

    Snapshot 2.5 TG cannot be used in areas where edibles are planted, or in areas that are being prepared for edibles to be planted.  Casoron 4G is labeled for use around blueberries.  It should be applied in the fall, once soil temperatures have dropped below 70 degrees and in the spring before soil temperatures have reached 50-55 degrees.  The label states it should not be applied to blueberries until 4 weeks after transplanting.

    Q
    Using Snapshot 2.5 TG in a new bed
    What would be best for weed control in a new bed? First get to soil then blanket spray Roundup then sprinkle this out? Is RoundUp a bad idea? I would be planting in this bed as well. Thank you.
    A

    Roundup would be good to use to kill anything in the bed now as well as spot treating with care on future weeds, then you could plant in 2 weeks and apply Snapshot 2.5 TG after planting for future prevention.
