Tenacity Lawn Damage

Post by Casutherland » April 6th, 2018, 4:21 pm

I applied tenacity at 1 teaspoon per 2 gallons of water, and did two applications over 3-4 weeks. There are spots that have stayed bleached and look damaged, if not dying. The growth in these spots has been stunted and looks bleached.

Was this this past Spring, or last Fall? How large an area did you apply the 2 gallons of mixed solution to?

That doesn't look out of the ordinary. If your last app was a month ago, I might be worried.

Well at first I thought it was normal, but it seems like it's getting worse. Been about 2 and a half almost 3 weeks since last app.

I mostly spot sprayed, but a few areas I blanket sprayed. This was all done this spring.

From the directions that 2 gallon solution would treat 2,000 SF with a blanket application. How big of an area did you spray?

I did 2 applications to try to take care of some poa annua post emergent and it looked rough for a little while but it recovered ok. It took probably a month until it started to rebound after the 2nd application.
