“…Triclopyr reduced ground ivy cover compared with the untreated check in 2010–2011 but reduced ground ivy cover as well as aminocyclopyrachlor in 2011–2012. Similar to our research, others have observed that triclopyr and 2,4‐D ester provided the greatest control of ground ivy when applied in October (Kohler et al, 2004b; Reicher and Weisenberger, 2007). Reicher and Weisenberger (2007) observed poor ground ivy control from October and November applications of 2,4‐D + MCPP + dicamba.…”

“…Field and greenhouse experiments have demonstrated that applications of 2,4‐D alone (Vrabel, 1987; Kohler et al, 2004b) or triclopyr alone (Kohler et al, 2004b; Reicher and Weisenberger, 2007) provide effective control of ground ivy. Research also indicates that tank‐mixing 2,4‐D and triclopyr improves ground ivy control (Vrabel, 1987; Olson and Wright, 1988).…”

Many turfgrass extension bulletins and herbicide labels recommend prolonging or suspending mowing practices 1 day or more before and/or after herbicide applications to increase efficacy. However, the effect of mowing timing on herbicide efficacy has not been sufficiently explored. Field experiments were conducted to evaluate the influence of herbicide selection and mowing timing relative to herbicide application on the control of ground ivy (Glechoma hederacea L.). The three mowing treatments included mowing 30 min before herbicide application, mowing 30 min after herbicide application, and not mowing for at least 7 days prior to and at least 3 days after herbicide application. Aminocyclopyrachlor resulted in the greatest reduction of ground ivy cover in 2011 and 2012. Like aminocyclopyrachlor, 2,4‐D ester and metsulfuron reduced ground ivy cover both years, while triclopyr reduced ground ivy cover as well as aminocyclopyrachlor in 2012. Although 2,4‐D + mecoprop (MCPP) + dicamba was not among the best performing herbicides, it reduced ground ivy cover compared with the untreated check in both years. There were no mowing or mowing‐by‐herbicide interactions on any of the rating dates. Thus, this research suggests that the timing of lawn mowing relative to herbicide application has little measurable impact on herbicide efficacy on ground ivy.

Ground ivy (Glechoma hederacea) control with boron and iron in Kentucky bluegrass turf

Ground ivy (Glechoma hederacea L.) is a perennial broadleaf weed in the mint family (Lamiaceae) that is commonly found in turf in the temperate climates of the United States. Cultural practices that maintain dense turf are the best way to reduce weeds; however, cultural control methods alone cannot provide complete weed control. Herbicides are commonly used to control weeds in the turfgrass industry, but interest in alternative control methods is increasing. Applications of iron‐based products are an alternative chemical weed control option in turfgrass systems, but other micronutrients, such as boron, may also be a viable option. The objective of this study was to compare the efficacy of a chelated iron product as well as different boron‐based products for ground ivy control and also determine if these products injure Kentucky bluegrass (Poa pratensis L.). The products evaluated included borax, boric acid, Solubor (disodium octaborate tetrahydrate), and Fiesta (FeHEDTA) with a low and high rate tested for each. Ground ivy cover was reduced 77% or more from a single October application of all boron sources at the high rates and the high rate of Fiesta when evaluated 9 months later. The high rate of all boron‐containing products caused unacceptable turfgrass injury (<7) and reduced turf quality below acceptable levels (<6). No turfgrass injury or reduction in turf quality was observed in the Fiesta‐treated plots. These results indicate that applications of the micronutrient boron can be used to control ground ivy, but not without causing injury to Kentucky bluegrass.

Sulfentrazone and Carfentrazone Accelerate Broadleaf Weed Control with Metsulfuron

et al. 2012

Ground ivy and khakiweed are troublesome broadleaf weeds of warm-season turfgrass. Field studies were conducted in Tennessee (TN) and Texas (TX) from 2008 to 2010 to evaluate the efficacy of sulfentrazone plus metsulfuron and carfentrazone plus metsulfuron tank mixtures compared with metsulfuron alone for control of ground ivy and khakiweed. In TN, sulfentrazone plus metsulfuron and carfentrazone plus metsulfuron provided accelerated control of ground ivy compared with metsulfuron alone. Over a 2-yr period, ground ivy control with metsulfuron at 10, 21, and 42 g ai ha−1ranged from 0 to 5% 7 d after treatment (DAT) and 12 to 60% 14 DAT. Ground ivy control with mixtures of sulfentrazone plus metsulfuron ranged from 40 to 72% 7 DAT and 87 to 100% 14 DAT. Similarly, carfentrazone plus metsulfuron controlled ground ivy 5 to 32% 7 DAT and 23 to 93% 14 DAT. In TX, carfentrazone plus metsulfuron and sulfentrazone plus metsulfuron controlled khakiweed greater than metsulfuron alone 7 and 14 DAT as well. Few differences in ground ivy and khakiweed control were detected 56 DAT because metsulfuron applied alone at 21 g ai ha−1controlled both weeds > 77%, similar to each mixture. These data indicate that when applied in mixtures, sulfentrazone and carfentrazone accelerate ground ivy and khakiweed control with metsulfuron but do not affect long-term efficacy.
