Not working
By Tony on 12/10/2021
Has not showed any results to speak of, no appearance of wilting or any other results
Expert response:
After spraying with Tenacity Herbicide, the foliage of treated weeds cease growth after application, then turn white (loss of chlorophyll), and death may take up to three weeks. A repeat application is required after two to three weeks for improved postemergence weed control. We do see that you had the product less than a month so just need to give more time to work and may need a repeat application depending on target weeds

tenacity
By Ron on 05/29/2022
Did nothing for my poa annua followed all instructions in fact got worse.
Expert response:
Good evening,
We apologize the Tenacity did not work as expected but we are not able to find an order under this email to confirm when purchased, was it purchased from us?
We will say that Tenacity is not labeled to control Poa annua that is already growing as a post emergent herbicide. Per the label it is only used to suppress it when applied as a pre-emergent before the poa annua germinates and emerges, it will take multiple applications for it do even this. If you already have Poa you will need a post emergent that is labeled to control it and that is safe to use on your turfgrass. If you provide that information we would be happy to look at a replacement product more suited to your needs.

Excellent product

Bentgrass began turning white and Nutgrass brown a week after the first application. Read the directions for applying, must be water in after applying. Costly, but for the small amount you mix with water an 8oz bottle will last a long time.

Works as advertized
By Jerry on 08/26/2014
Verified Purchase
I used this product 4 weeks ago to some of my problem areas as far as crabgrass, creeping charlie and nutgrass. It did the job! Make sure you follow the directions as far as the 1 teaspoon per two gallons though. My first batch I did not measure and it took awhile for the grass to bounce back. Definitely turns the weeds white but don't worry it bounces back.

So Far So Good
By Rick on 09/08/2014
Verified Purchase
I just put down my second application and so far I am very impressed. I'm putting it down with a 2 gal. tank sprayer. It has "done a number" on my bent grass and that is what I was primarily after. As a bonus, it is also wiping out my wild violets. I have been trying to kill those for about 10 years. I'm anxious to see what things look like in the spring. Has this really eliminated the patches of bent grass (and violets) or are they coming back in the spring?!?

Tenacity for Chickweed
By Skip on 09/09/2014
Verified Purchase
I bought for Chickweed control and fall Chickweed pre-emergence. Will not see results until the Spring. On the plus side it has turned quite a few of the other weeds/grasses in my yard white. I just hope they die and do not come back. I used in a 2 gallon sprayer with non-ionic surfactant and a marking solution. Takes awhile to do the whole yard but well worth it if it controls the weeds and germination seeds better than the big store brands - Scxxts etc... I will re-apply in mid March and try for pre-emergence control of anything I might have missed.

Good Job!
By James on 08/30/2015
I have treated Nimble Will and some broad leaf only once. The areas I treated have turned brown after being white and looks like it did the job! I still have a lot more area to do and hope to get rid of all the undesirables in our lawn. Thank you, Jim

Great product for getting rid of Creeping Bent Grass
By Bob on 08/23/2016
I found creeping bent grass in my newly soded lawn. The Univ of Idaho extension actually determined what it was and told that there was a selective herbicide for treating it that would not kill the grass. They could not recommend a brand product but did tell what to look for. That's when I found Tenacity. I applied a small amount and with a week it looks like it has killed the bent grass.

Loved it!
By Deb on 08/29/2016
I could see where I sprayed the next day. A week later the weeds and trash grass are turning white. I used it on a buffalo grass lawn and am seeing NO damage so far to the buffalo grass. It is a difficult process, about three years worth, to get buffalo grass to a level where there is no weed competition. From then on, it is virtually maintenance free. If it works at seeding as it says, that process will go to one year. So far, I love this product!

This works even where I thought it wouldn't
By John on 08/31/2016
This stuff works. It works very well on crabgrass but you do sometimes have to spray a couple of times. It also is pretty good on creeping Charlie. It is not the best on some of the other weeds it is recommended for. It also works at killing my tall fescue in my bluegrass. That is what I like it for the best. I spay it on the tall fescue about 3 times spread out a week apart. It kills it within a month. I was told by professionals I would have to kill it with roundup and reseed. I also recommend using a measuring spoon instead of the syringe. I just dip it in the bottle and put it in a funnel in my sprayer. Then I rinse off the spoon with water inside the funnel.

ALL AROUND GREAT !!
By Steve's on 05/22/2017
This particular product is great! Have patience, it is slow to work. Follow directions precisely. Kinda' pricey but the only way to remove bent grass from a Kentucky Blue blend without killing everything. Works well on broadleafs too, but there are many less expensive options for those.

May be working. Poa is turning white, but roots look fine...
By Frank on 06/13/2017
I ordered tenacity about 2 weeks ago. Got it and put it on with the blue dye and used the non-ionic surfactant. The blue dye really didn't help me that much, turned my shoes, socks and pants leg blue. I could tell where it was in some spots in the yard, but in other spots, you couldn't tell any was there. We applied it in the late afternoon, and it was dry by noon the next day when the grass dew was gone. We then reapplied it 5 days later, and there were spots in the grass where I noticed the grass was turning white. It doesn't look like its dying, but it's only been 1.5 weeks. But it is definitely white!! So I don't have a definitive yes or no on whether or not its going to work, and will update my post in a few weeks.

Perfect Once You Hit Something It Targets
By Justin on 06/20/2017
Verified Purchase
This is a very-selective herbicide. It worked great for some Crab-Grass in my Centipde but unfortunately didn't touch green-killinga. I am not holding this against it in the review because it is not labeled to do that. Ironically, it did knock out most of my green nutsedge, which is in the same family as Killinga I hear. the solution to that was a product called Dismiss (also sold here). I just want to point out this product DOES have some soil activity. I rinsed out a sprayer about 6' from a shurb and had a few leaves turn paper-white in color - oops. Had some areas go light green as well. Seems to be recovering nicely and needed to be trimmed anyway. Just be careful. This is one of those super-powerful , yet highly selective herbicides.

Syringe Failure
By Pete on 04/30/2019

I am very pleased with the Tenacity application with surfactant and dye. Easy to mix. I marked off 5' x 100' areas and treated these as I covered my lawn. My system and application were all but perfect. The syringe was a real disappointment. I could not pull product into the syringe. It may have been defective, but it would not work for me. I had to use other measuring devices.

Great stuff. Worked as expected.
By Dm on 05/05/2019
Bought Tenacity about a month ago. Applied as per instructions using syringe. Also added tackifier 1.5 teaspoons per gallon. In about a week weeds started turning white and looks like dying. We'll see in a couple of weeks. Some grass also turned white but about a week later returned to normal color. I plan to apply again in a couple of week which will mark 6 weeks period since initial application.
