Applying a single Celsius plus Revolver treatment in spring followed by a single Celsius plus Revolver treatment in the fall also did not provide acceptable long-term control of this weed. Two applications of Celsius plus Revolver in fall, two applications of Celsius plus Revolver in spring followed by two applications of Monument in the fall, or two spring applications of Monument in spring followed by two applications of Celsius plus Revolver in fall are all providing 80% or greater dallisgrass control going into winter, comparable to that seen with multiple applications of MSMA. Multiple fall applications of Tribute Total have injured dallisgrass, but have not provided acceptable long-term control. Injury to the 45 SportsTurf | February 2013 bermudagrass was noticeable but not unacceptable, especially at higher doses, for certain of the herbicides tested, and longer lasting in the fall. We will be following these trials in the spring to determine if dallisgrass can outgrow the effects of these treatments. With the products available for dallisgrass suppression in bermudagrass, it appears that multiple spring and fall applications will be needed for acceptable dallisgrass control. Applications may need to be timed to spring when dallisgrass greens up and resumes growth in spring, as well as treatments in the fall to weaken the plant going into winter. Adjuvant addition, including ammonium sulfate and methylated seed oil, may also be beneficial in these spray programs. Those reports come from a few of my VT Turf Team colleagues. I encourage you to also get to know your state or regional college and university turf teams and familiarize yourself with the work that they are doing. You never know when a turf emergency might arise where you could use another set of eyes and ears to help you solve a problem. Your support of these programs makes you a part of the team and teamwork is always a key to success. *Martin Kaufman, CSFM was to be the new STMA President but when he took a new position last year he was forced to resign per association bylaws so Dr. Goatley agreed to stay on the job through 2013. ■ www.sportsturfonline.com
