  • Asked by Ron from Ohio

    10/29/2019

    Q

    When should I stop using T-Nex for the season?
    I live in Ohio with a KBG lawn that I keep at 1". Lawn is still actively growing. I hit my GDD threshold on 10/26 and made my last App for the year. Looking for input for next season. Thanks

    A

    The grass needs to be actively growing for a T-Nex application to be effective and useful. So if you are applying now, that would likely be your last application for the year since the T-Nex can last 8 weeks, and you would not apply after frost.

  • Asked by Bob from In

    04/17/2021

    Q

    How much T-Nex Plant Growth Regulator in ounces do I use for each gallon of water in my sprayer?
    The table talks about number of ounces per 1000 square feet or per acre of lawn.

    A

    T-Nex Plant Growth Regulator is measured in oz per 1,000 feet and not oz per gallon. Most people will measure off 1,000 sq, fill their tank with water, then walk and spray at a normal pace. If at the end, you find it takes you 1 gallon of water to cover 1,000 sq then that is how much water you use when mixing and so forth and so on. Typically it takes about 1-3 gallons of water to cover 1,000 sq feet.

    Q

    Should I mix liquid iron with my T-Nex application to my midnight Blue KBG to prevent discoloration?
    I plan on doing a split application since it's my first time applying T-Nex. I'm worried about over applying so I thought I'd take the proper dose and divide it by two and go about a week or two apart to see if any issues with my technique. Thought liquid iron would help with any discoloration.

    A

    You can add iron (or quick-release Nitrogen) to an application of T-Nex Plant Growth Regulator in accordance with the product label to reduce any potential discoloration. Discoloration to actively growing turfgrass should last only about a week, if there is any at all. Typically you would not reduce the label rates when applying T-Nex unless the turf were growing under stress from factors such as low fertility or compaction. If you can tolerate some discoloration, then you can actually apply up to twice the listed rate (1.2 oz per 1,000 sq ft on KBG) to get control for up to 8 weeks.

    We recommend that you calibrate your sprayer with just water if you are not sure how much water you need to cover your lawn. We have a video hereto assist you with how to calibrate your sprayer.
