Mesotrione MESO 4SC Select contains the same active ingredient as the popular Tenacity Herbicide. This weed killer represses photosynthesis in susceptible and receptive plants as it is absorbed systemically through roots, leaves, and shoots. It can be effectively used against weed invasion and also promotes excellent control of tough-to-control weeds like dandelions before and during seeding of particular types of turfgrasses.
Mesotrione MESO 4SC Select is a safe weed killer for cool season turfgrass like Kentucky Bluegrass, Turf Type Tall Fescue, Fine Fescue, and Ryegrass. It is one of the best weed killers for lawns.
This formula can be used anytime during seeding including overseeding of established turfgrass, during renovation, or bare ground seeding. Weeds are expected to die and wither within 3 weeks from the application, turning the weeds white in color due to the loss of chlorophyll. Whitening of the turfgrass is common but temporary and typically occurs between 5 to 7 days after application and may last for several works.
This product shoud NOT be applied on warm season grasses like Bermuda and Zoysia. It can be used on Centipede grass for crabgrass control.
Meso 4SC Select can be used on the following grass types:
Cool Season Lawns - Kentucky Bluegrass, Turf Type Tall Fescue (all fescues), Ryegrass.
Warm Season Grass - Centipedegrass and St. Augustine grown for sod. Do not apply to other warm season grasses.
