    Q
    Can I border my hay fields or will Tenacity Herbicide kill alfalfa?
    A

    Tenacity Herbicide is not labeled to be used on alfalfa or pastures so would be recommended to keep applications at least 10 feet away and avoid any drift/contact from contacting the areas.

    Q
    Tenacity use on dormant near semi-dormant Bermuda grass
    After applying Tenacity to my dormant near semi-dormant Bermuda grass, It seems like the Tenacity killed certain large areas of grass. What is your recommendation to fix this issue? Will Bermuda grass overgrow that area or should I seed?
    A

    If the Tenacity Herbicide is used on semi-dormant grass, it may harm the turf as you have seen since it is only labeled to be used on fully dormant bermudagrass. You can wait it out to see if the bermuda grows back or you would wait at least 3-4 months to reseed.. The label does not give a specific time frame of reseeding with bermuda when Tenacity is used but since it is shorter-acting than other pre-emergents so as long as the residual of Tenacity is gone, you can reseed/sod.

    Q
    How much longer before yellow colored patches turn green after using Tenacity Herbicide?
    I applied Tenacity as a preemergent the first week of March. 2 weeks later there are large straw colored patches. To date surrounding areas are green and patches are still there.
    A

    It depends on what type of turfgrass Tenacity Herbicide was applied to. If the grass is labeled tolerant to the product then it will bounce back as long as it's a healthy lawn. We would recommend to contact your county extension office to identify if it's a disease.

    Q
    Will Tenacity Herbicide work on weeds that are in rocks, not grass?
    I have weeds in rocks, have sprayed, but reading how it should be used for weeds in grass.
    A
    Tenacity Herbicide

     is only labeled to be used in turfgrasses for weed control.  If there are no desirable plants in the area where you have rock areas, it should not be an issue to just spot treat the weeds there directly, but usually something like RoundUp QuikPro is more used in this case.

    Q
    Does Tenacity Herbicide kill coltsfoot?
    A

    Tenacity Herbicide is not labeled for coltsfoot. You can see the article below from Washington State where they have done studies on the plant and the recommendations for control. There do not appear to be any herbicides specifically labeled for this weed currently.

    Q
    When should I use Tenacity as a pre-emergent in Central NJ?
    We recently ordered and used two days back as a post emergent. Need to know when should we use it as a preemergent in the spring i.e. expecting a temperature range of the day and approximate time in terms of the month/week of the month in the response.
    A

    Tenacity would be applied as a pre-emergent in spring when soil temperatures are about 55 degrees. This will vary depending on your location, so we advise to reach out to your local extension office for advise on perfect timing in your area. Keep in mind that Tenacity only last about 30 days in the soil when applied as a pre-emergent. So if you are not overseeding your turfgrass, then we recommend selecting a different product such as Barricade 4L.

    Q
    Live in South Carolina, what does the temperature of the soil have to get to apply Tenacity Herbicide in the spring
    A

    Tenacity Herbicide can be used for pre-emergent control once the soil temperature in your region reaches 55 degrees Fahrenheit, and can also be used for post-emergent control if weeds are actively growing.  You can refer to our Lawn Care Schedule for Warm Season Grasses for more information on the best timing for treatments on your specific lawn type.  You may also reach out to your local cooperative extension office for timing application advice specific to your area.

    Q
    Can Tenacity be used to kill weeds in dormant centipede grass?
    Would be using Tenacity as a post-emergent in this scenario.
    A

    We would not recommend using this product on dormant centipede. If the Tenacity Herbicide is used on semi-dormant grass, it may harm the turf. Tenacity also does not have very good cool-weather performance as a post-emergent. If you would like to share some of the specific weeds you are targeting, then we may be able to better assist you.

  • Asked by Matt from Rock Hill, Sc
    03/04/2021
    Q
    When applying Tenacity Herbicide as a pre emergent, will this take care of existing weeds also?
    A

    Tenacity Herbicide is labeled for pre and post emergent control for specific listed weeds. Please refer to the Weeds Controlled Table on page 9 of the product label to see if your target weeds are controlled by pre and/or post emergent applications. When appying Tenacity Herbicide for post emergent control of actively growing weeds, a Non Ionic Surfactant should be used for best results.

    Q
    If wild life eats the grass or weeds after I put Tenacity down will it harm them?
    A

    Tenacity Herbicide is safe to use in a yard where pets and wildlife frequent as long as they are out of the area during the application. They can safely return after the area has dried typically after a few hours.

    Q
    Is Tenacity Herbicide a permanent fix or an annual one?
    I have an acre of property and I have clover and crabgrass in different areas of the yard. I'm interested in getting rid of these annoying weeds. If I do the 2 applications starting in the spring and early summer, how often do I have to reapply these chemicals? Every year? Every 2 years? Spot treat?
    A

    Unfortunately, there is no herbicide that will get rid of weeds permanently. Tenacity Herbicide, like other herbicides, can be applied up to 3 times a year, at 2 to 3 week intervals, on a yearly basis as long as you do not go over the max annual rate per area. It does only last up to 30 days as a pre-emergent application. It may be possible to eventually see reduction of weeds but keep in mind that the elements as well as birds can eventually introduce new weed seeds into your yard.

    Q
    Can I plant shrubs after spraying Tenacity?
    I plan on spraying Tenacity on my lawn this month but will be creating new flower beds and planting trees throughout the lawn later in the year. Is it ok to spray Tenacity on these areas now?
    A

    Tenacity Herbicide should not be applied to ornamental beds or areas where you intend to plant anything other than listed turfgrasses within at least 18 months, per the product label. We recommend you do not apply Tenacity where you intend to plant ornamentals or that you create raised beds or remove the soil where Tenacity may have been applied.

  • Asked by Sally
    04/04/2021
    Q
    How long after putting down Tenacity as a preemergent can I put down granular soil conditioner?
    A

    That would depend a little bit on what kind of soil conditioner you are applying and how it instructs you to use it. If its a product that needs to be incorporated into the top layer of soil or applied in any way that would disturb the Tenacity barrier, you would need to have either applied it before the Tenacity, or about 30-45 days after. Tenacity as a pre emergent only lasts about a month in the soil so after that time you could safely apply it if it requires the barrier be interrupted. If its just applied to the top of the soil and watered in, etc you can apply it within a few days of the Tenacity treatment.

    Q
    Can Tenacity Herbicide be applied at the same time as overseeding with Tall Fescue seed in the spring? I planned on using Tenacity along with a surfactant while new tall fescue seed is down before it has germinated to stay on top of weeds.
    A

    Tenacity Herbicide is best applied at the same time as when you overseed for preemergent control of weeds.If you have already overseeded, then it is best to wait until after the 2nd mowing or 30 days (whichever is longer) to apply Tenacity with a Non Ionic Surfactant for post emergent control of weeds.
