Envu will enter the cool-season herbicide market with four new products designed to address cool-season turfgrass problems. Acclaim Accelerate, Terradex Crabgrass & Broadleaf, Terradex Quick Strike and Terradex Power Premix are new offerings from the company created to tackle crabgrass and more than 90 broadleaf weeds.
“The new herbicide products are designed to be applied during the hardest parts of the year to control tough-to-manage weeds,” said Zac Reicher, Ph.D., Green Solutions Team at Envu. “All of these products can be used in ride-on sprayers and can be applied over new seeding after the second mowing. We know lawn care crews need herbicide solutions that are dependable. These new products deliver on that promise.”
