I was planning to apply celcius to my SA today, but it also needs to be mowed...am I ok doing both on the same day?

I've mowed one day and sprayed Celsius the following day only because I was mowing every other day and couldn't let it sit for the 2 days period. I had a good response from the Celsius. I don't know if spraying immediately after mowing would stress the turf a little but with Celsius you will probably be OK.

The issue of doing this is you have hacked off a lot of the weed with the mow. There maybe little to know leaves left.

I'd mow and wait at least 1 to 2 days to let the weeds recover a bit. You want them actively growing when you hit them,

I have seen that recommendation (waiting 2 days before/after) on some stuff for sedges, but not on the Celsius label.

Even when recommended, if I'm mowing more often than every 4 days I just try to split the difference with my herbicide app - i.e. I don't disrupt my mowing schedule.

That's what I was trying to say above. @Ware is so much better of a communicator than I am. You can't wait 2 days before and 2 days after when you are mowing every other day.
