DOES ANY ONE KNOW WHAT IS THE BEST NON-SELECTIVE KILL OUT IN THE MARKET TO USE ON A SAND SOFTBALL FIELD?

[Seascape]

Pramatol is great but i dont know if its labeled for softball fiels or recreational use. Lesco can tell you. They also sell it at tractor supply.

THANKS FOR THE INFO. DO YOU KNOW HOW FAST IT WORKS?

[Seascape]

Im not sure what it claims but i know its slower than round up. Its going to depend on your weather when you apply it also. If you apply on a dry hot day and get a few more dry hot days you should have it down in a week at the most. Also depending on the weather trends you should get close to a 2 year residual w/ it.

Hold on !!!!! My app guy said im going to get you arrested !!! He said use ROUND UP. Said PRAMITOL is industrial and not labeled for sports fields. He said you can use it in parks ect.. but only for bare ground areas. Go get yourself some round up.

Ya know, i like lesco,, theyre great for specialty chems,, but i have to wonder,,,,,,,,,, what did they say to use?

THEY ALSO SAID TO USE ROUND UP (41%)CONCENTRATE OR LESCO BRAND (PROSECUTOR PRO). THEY ARE THE SAME PRODUCT.
INFACT THEY ARE MADE AT THE SAME PLACE JUST DIFFERENT NAMES AND PRICE.

[Seascape]

Good deal,, glad you got it figured out.

Are you just taking out weeds in the infield, or are you chemical mowing for re-sodding? If you're re-sodding your product choice makes a big difference since in some cases you cannot re-sod for 60 days or more.
Whatever you use on the infield consider a preemergent so you won't have a recurring problem during the season.
Good Luck

I will not be re-sodding the field will be a complete sand field.
