Abstract
The present embodiments relates to method and an herbicide combination for controlling weed growth in turfgrass while reducing or suppressing phytotoxicity or bleaching, which include contacting the turfgrass with an herbicidally effective amount of (a) the herbicide combination of mesotrione and quinclorac, (b) at least one agronomically acceptable excipient; and (c) optionally, a third herbicide; wherein the quinclorac in the formulation is present in an amount effective to reduce or suppress the phytotoxic or bleaching effect of mesotrione, as compared with mesotrione alone. The present embodiments also provide a method and combination formulation of controlling weed growth in turfgrass while reducing bleaching using a three-component formulation as described herein.
