    Q
    Can you mix Tenacity with Drive XLR8 ?
    A

    As long as both products do not contain the same active ingredient, and both have labels that allow tank mixing in general. Per the Drive label: The most restrictive labeling applies with any tank mix. To increase spectrum of control of broadleaf and other weeds, Drive XLR8 may be tank mixed with 2,4-D, Triclopyr, and other broadleaf herbicides. Make sure to do a tank mix test first for any clumping or discoloring before applying to the lawn. Also, be sure both products can be used on the treatment area safely.

    Q
    Do I apply Tenacity to dirt before laying sod?
    Whole lawn has lot of bentgrass I think. If I replace with new sod. Do you recommend using tenacity on the dirt before rolling out new sod.
    A

    If you are doing a full lawn renovation and wanting to kill existing plants before sodding, then we would recommend using a non-selective herbicide to clear the area before planting. You could use a product like RoundUp QuikPro for this application. Then after any existing plants have died and the lawn is prepared, you could put down your sod. We would suggest applying Tenacity after the sod is down as a pre-emergent (or post-emergent as needed) as long as the turf is one that is listed as tolerable on the product label. Keep in mind that the best time to use Tenacity for bentgrass will be in late Summer/early Fall.

  • Asked by Chris from Oh

    Q
    May I apply Tenacity and SedgeHammer + near the same time?
    A

    There should not be any issues using Tenacity Herbicide and Sedgehammer Herbicide at the same time as long as the turf is established and not under other significant stress. If you are using Tenacity as a post-emergent herbicide, then it is generally best to spot treat since it can cause some temporary whitening of the desirable turfgrass. Another option that you may want to consider would be Dismiss Herbicide, which targets both sedges and many broadleaf weeds.

    Q
    How soon can I overseed an area that was treated with Tenacity if I will be using a blend of Kentucky bluegrass, fescue, and rye?
    My target weed I am killing is bentgrass.
    A

    You can apply Tenacity herbicide on the day of seeding.  Once you have seeded you will need to wait until the grass is mature.  You can start applying a month before seeding so you can apply 2-3 applications before seeding.

    Q
    Will Tenacity Herbicide kill poa annua or annual blue grass?

    Q
    Can I mix the Tenacity Herbiicide with Eagle 20EW Specialty Fungicide, Dismiss Turf Herbicide & Talstar P (Talstar One) for turf?
    A

    It is not recommended to mix certain insecticides, herbicides, or fungicides with Tenacity Herbicide.  You should wait to apply insecticides 7 days after treating with Tenacity Herbicide to avoid potential turf injury. Other ingredients in the fungicides or herbicides would be fine to use at the same time if there are no resttrictions on the product label.

    Q
    Can I speed up the three spraying intervals for Tenacity to 10 days instead of 2/3 weeks?
    Trying to get plenty of time for aeration and Fall seeding.
    A

    No, Tenacity Herbicide must be used per labeled instructions or it could cause damage to your lawn if used otherwise.  Applying Tenacity Herbicide more frequently than the label allows could cause unnecessary stress to your turf or worse, it could kill your desirable turf.

    Q
    I have a smith contractor 2-gallon sprayer that I plan to use for applying Tenacity Herbicide at 1 tsp per 2 gallons. How do I know I am applying enough or too much? Is there a way to calibrate or is just spraying a blanket good enough?
    A

    We would suggest testing the flow rate and pace of walk using the 2-gallon sprayer with plain water to determine the best nozzle setting before treating with Tenacity Herbicide. You want to be sure you are walking at an even pace and evenly spraying the area for best results.

    Q
    Can I spray Tenacity over all my lawn in the fall for pre-emergence?
    I need pre-emergence selective herbicide for fall and spring before weed germinate. Is Tenacity can be used for this purpose to broad cast the whole yard of around 7000 square feet? Is this chemical very toxic for human and pet? Can it be used anytime in the year no matter what temperature out there?
    A

    Tenacity Herbicide can be used as a broadcast application for pre-emergent control of the listed weeds on the label.   It can be used anytime of year depending on target weeds.  As long as you keep pets/children out of the area while you treat and until the product has had time to completely dry or settle it is safe for pets and people to return and resume normal activity

    Q
    How do I apply Tenacity when the nimblewill has gone to seed?
    We've had a drought the past month (September/early October 2019) in the Baltimore/Washington DC area and the nimblewill has gone to seed (and my lawn service just arrived to mow my yard as i started typing this). I was pulling them but there is just too much and the ground is dry as a bone.
    A

    Tenacity Herbicide is applied to nimblewill when it is actively growing, and should be applied when temperatures are between 65 and 85 degrees.  You should make your application when no rain is in the forecast for 24 hours, and you should not mow 2 days before or 2 days after your application.  It is applied at the rate of 1 teaspoon of Tenacity, 3 teaspoons of surfactant, in 2 gallons of water per 2000 sq ft.
