Hi everyone I am new to the forum. I have been watching tons of videos on you tube... Huge fan of Connor Ward, Grass Daddy, and Lawn Care Nut. Let me know if there any other channels to check out. I have a question I am in Ohio up by Lake Erie and I am growing from seed. I planted 9/10 and it has been going well but I had some unexpected grading issues and I had to add some top soil to the front lawn. Everything was going well but this recent heat wave really slammed the front with weeds. I originally fertilized with Scoot New Lawn plus weed control (MesoTrione) which should have put .15 down. However, these guys while getting initially a little lighter fight through it. Would I be ok to do a liquid application of tenacity, would I be better to wait it out, or what? I am bit confused on this topic.

Per Tenacity label: New Seedings/New Lawn Establishment - Apply Tenacity at 5-8 fl. oz. per acre in at least 30 gallons of water per acre prior to seeding or post seeding of tolerant turfgrass species listed on this label, except fine fescue. Tenacity may reduce density of fine fescue seedings. Tenacity can be used on grass seed blends that contain less than 20% by weight of hard or fine fescue. Tenacity will control many monocot and dicot weeds that compete with and slow the establishment of the turfgrass stands. Apply at grass seeding or close to seeding for best performance. Avoid spraying on newly germinated turfgrass plants. Wait until the newly germinated turf has been mowed two times or four weeks after emergence (whichever is longer) before making a postemergence application.

I missed that last bold section when I looked a few days ago. Hmmm the weeds make me nervous.

Post-emergence means with a surfactant such that it coats the blades. Without a surfactant, it works as a pre-emergent.

Either way, be careful around grass babies.
