What postemergent herbicide do you use for turf and why?

“We use a product called Lesco Three-Way to knock out weeds such as dandelions and many others. It has 2,4-D and Dicamba in it and really works well for us. It can safely be spot sprayed or blanketed across the turf up to 85 degrees without the potential of burning the turf.”

“We have used SpeedZone by PBI-Gordon Corp. for several years now. It’s an excellent selective herbicide for cool- and warm-season turfgrasses that has noticeable effects within a few hours. The product is rainproof in three hours, and we have had nothing but great results with it.”

“We use Escalade from Nufarm. It works well and is cost effective. We purchase all our lawn care products in September for thefollowing year in the early order program.”
