Other claims from this paper (18)
- Intervention effect Bermudagrass injury from herbicides was minimal, below 10%.
- Association Centipedegrass injury increased with sulfentrazone rate before harvest.
- Association St. Augustinegrass injury increased with sulfentrazone rate before harvest.
- Association Zoysiagrass injury increased with sulfentrazone rate before harvest.
- Intervention effect Herbicides did not reduce centipedegrass sod tensile strength versus untreated sod.
- Intervention effect Herbicide application one week before harvest reduced St. Augustinegrass tensile strength by 15%.
- Intervention effect Herbicide application one week before harvest reduced zoysiagrass tensile strength by 22%.
- Intervention effect Sulfentrazone at 0.84 kg ha −1 reduced zoysiagrass tensile strength 20%.
- Intervention effect Other treatments did not reduce zoysiagrass tensile strength.
- Intervention effect Halosulfuron caused negligible turfgrass injury across all four species.
- Intervention effect Halosulfuron did not affect sod tensile strength across the four species.
- Intervention effect Treatments did not affect root mass in any turfgrass four weeks after transplanting.
- Intervention effect Sulfentrazone one or two weeks before harvest reduced centipedegrass quality after transplanting.
- Intervention effect Sulfentrazone one or two weeks before harvest reduced St. Augustinegrass quality after transplanting.
- Intervention effect Sulfentrazone four weeks before harvest reduced zoysiagrass quality.
- Intervention effect No herbicide reduced bermudagrass quality after transplanting.
- Recommendation The authors recommend delaying sod harvest after sulfentrazone by 1, more than 2, more than 2, and at least 4 weeks for bermudagrass, centipedegrass, St. Augustinegrass, and zoysiagrass, respectively.
- Recommendation The authors recommend harvest delays after halosulfuron of 1, 2, at least 4, and 2 weeks for bermudagrass, centipedegrass, St. Augustinegrass, and zoysiagrass, respectively.
