Julio from Splendora, Tx writes

What does it mean that it will only suppress weeds such as Dallisgrass?

Basically no kill? I would like to use it on St Augustine grass. If it does not kill what do you recommend for a kill of Dallisgrass on St Augustine? TY

Answer:

When an herbicide lists that it will "suppress" a weed rather than "control" it, it just means that the research provided from testing did not kill a high enough percentage of the weed in one application to receive a "control" approval, which is usually higher than at least 80 percent. So usually it means you need multiple applications and/or other cultural or chemical treatments to completely eradicate the weed. Dallisgrass is a weed that is notoriously difficult to eradicate quickly once it is established. Dismiss NXT would be a good choice for post-emergent. You can also use Dimension 2EW as a pre-emergent for dallisgrass.
