Fiesta

  • Dr. Gardner (OSU)
  • Phytotoxicity to the turf grass is not an issue
  • Sequential applications of Fiesta produce

season long control of dandelion, white clover, broadleaf plantain, and ground ivy that is comparable to control with Trimec

  • Long term control is a function more of the total

amount of Fiesta applied rather than the concentration/amount applied

Cornell

  • Henbit, white clover, oxalis and motherwort were

controlled by one application in June.

  • Ground ivy was largely controlled by one June

application, and completely controlled with two applications.

  • Broadleaf plantain, two June applications provided

about 90% control

  • Plots treated with a similar iron product with the

same level of active ingredient, did not have as great a response as plants treated with Fiesta

  • Application Recommendation

– Spot treatment

  • Dilute 5 oz. per gallon
  • Spray to point of runoff

– Broadcast treatment

  • Dilute 5 oz. per gallon
  • Spray solution at 2.5 G – 5 G per 1,000

– Ideal scenario

  • Broadcast early when weeds are young and actively

growing

  • Spot treat 30 days later
