GENERAL INFORMATION:
This turf fertilizer product contains Team*, a preemergence herbicide for application to established turfgrasses for the control of the winter anual grasses: annual Bluegrass (Poa annua) and Summer annual grasses: Smooth and Hairy Crabgrass, Goosegrass(Silver Crabgrass or Crowfootgrass), Barnyardgrass (Watergrass) and Green and Yellow Foxtail. This product also provides partial control of Prostrate spurge (Euphorbia humistrata), Spotted Spurge (Euphorbia maculatta), Creeping Spurge (Euphorbia serpens), Creeping Woodsorrel (Oxalls comiculata) and Yellow Woodsorrel (Oxalls stricta).
APPLICATION
This product should be applied one to two weeks prior to the anticipated germination of the target anual weeds. Apply using a properly calibrated granular fertilizer spreader which will uniformly distribute the product over the target area. Avoid skips and excessive overlap as poor weed control or turfgrass injury may occur. Optimum weed control performance will be obtained if treated areas are irrigated soon after application. This product will not harm most nearby ornamentals.
In areas with extended growing seasons or where desired, a second application at the recommended rate can be made 8 to 10 wekks following the initial application on cool season turfgrasses and 10 to 12 weeks following the initial application on warm season turfgrasses.
