Q

2, 4-D

  • MOA:
  • Chemical Forms
  • Weeds Controlled
  • Considerations
A

MOA: Auxin ( Growth Regulator)
Chemical Forms: Amines (salts), Esters, Acid
Weeds Controlled: some Broadleaf, not Grasses
Considerations: Esters are volatile in the heat. Can damage bentgrass is percentage is too high. 0.60 % or less is best for sensitive turf.
