Double Time is a broad-spectrum herbicide that is used to control a variety of broadleaf weeds in turfgrass. It is a selective herbicide, meaning it will not harm the turfgrass itself. Double Time works by inhibiting the enzyme acetolactate synthase (ALS), which is essential for the growth and development of broadleaf weeds.

Mode of Action

Double Time works by inhibiting the enzyme acetolactate synthase (ALS), which is essential for the growth and development of broadleaf weeds. When ALS is inhibited, the weeds are unable to produce certain amino acids, which leads to their death.

Benefits of Double Time

  • Broad-spectrum activity against a variety of broadleaf weeds
  • Effective against both early and late season weeds
  • Selective for turfgrass
  • Fast-acting and long-lasting control
  • Easy to use as a spray
  • Safe for most crops and the environment

Application Rates and Methods

The recommended application rate of Double Time varies depending on the turfgrass species, the weed being controlled, and environmental conditions. For foliar applications, it is typically applied at 0.125 to 0.25 pounds per acre. For soil drench applications, it is typically applied at 0.0625 to 0.125 pounds per acre. It is typically applied as a spray, but it can also be applied as a soil drench.

Safety Precautions

Double Time is relatively safe to use when handled properly. However, it is a good idea to wear gloves, long sleeves, and pants when applying the product to avoid skin contact. Wash thoroughly with soap and water after handling the product.
