Nematode-management program available from SiteOne

briefs.jpgSoil Technologies' Armorex nematicide and Bac-Pack microbial blend soil amendment are now available through SiteOne Landscape Supply. Armorex and Bac-Pack applied to nematode-infested golf course putting greens showed up to 90 percent control of lance nematodes in research conducted in Florida.

The combination of Armorex and Bac-Pack resulted in turf that recovered quickly from nematode damage, according to research.

Armorex is O.M.R.I. listed for organics and contains the essential oils of sesame, clove and horseradish, the company says. The product is a liquid formulation that is diluted with water for easy spray application.

RightLine releases herbicide for use in warm-season grass

RightLine has launched its first sulfentrazone combination product with RightLine Sulfen Southern herbicide.

By combining sulfentrazone with the powerful herbicide imazethapyr, the new herbicide expands the list of weeds controlled beyond straight sulfentrazone products. While sulfentrazone alone controls many sedges and kyllinga, the addition of imazethapyr expands label claims to include purple nutsedge and a total of more than 50 weeds.

Sulfen Southern is labeled for use on many warm-season turfgrass species including bermudagrass and zoysiagrass and can be applied to golf course fairways and roughs, sod farms and athletic fields, as well as residential, commercial and institutional lawn areas. Sulfen Southern is packaged in a 64-ounce bottle.
