Sulfentrazone herbicide was applied to a SR1020 creeping bentgrass putting green (5/32") on October 15, 1996 and again on March 4, 1997 at the rates of 0.125, 0.250 and 0.375 lb. AI/A. Betasan was included at the standard rate of 5.6 ounces of product/1000 ft2. Turf response to sulfentrazone was mostly linear with application rate, with higher application rates causing more damage to the turf. Responses occurred quicker in the fall (by 3 DAT) compared to late winter (7DAT). Magnitude of injury was also somewhat less in the late winter than in the fall, although rank responses were still rate dependent for sulfentrazone treated creeping bentgrass turf. Applied rates of 0.250 and 0.375 lb. AI/A were deleterious and not acceptable for putting green quality turf. A marginal (acceptable) response occurred overall at the 0.125 lb. rate. Betasan applied at 5.6 ounces product/1000 ft², caused no visible damage to the turf in the fall and was similar in response to sulfentrazone in the spring at the 0.125 lb. AI/A (repeat) application rate.
