Yellow and purple nutsedge are two of the most problematic weeds in turfgrass. Effective long-term control is linked to herbicide translocation and the subsequent reduction in tuber production and viability. In this 60-minute webinar, Gerald Henry, Ph.D., discusses several different herbicides and application programs for the preemergence and postemergence control of nutsedge species. Our focus will include their effects on vegetative propagules.
