Pendant is a non-selective, post-emergent herbicide that is used to control a wide range of annual and perennial weeds in turfgrass, ornamentals, and agricultural crops. It is a contact herbicide, meaning it must come into direct contact with the weeds in order to be effective. Pendant has a long residual activity, meaning it will continue to control weeds for several weeks after application.
Mode of Action
Pendant works by disrupting the cell membranes of weeds, leading to their death. It specifically targets the chloroplasts in the cells of weeds, causing them to lose their ability to photosynthesize and produce energy. Pendant can also inhibit the enzyme acetolactate synthase (ALS), which is essential for the growth and development of weeds.
Benefits of Pendant
- Non-selective activity for control of a wide range of annual and perennial weeds
- Long-lasting control, with residual activity of several weeks
- Effective for spot treatment or broad area applications
- Safe for most crops and the environment
- Easy to use as a spray
Application Rates and Methods
The recommended application rate of Pendant varies depending on the weed being controlled, the turfgrass species, and environmental conditions. For foliar applications, it is typically applied at 0.5 to 2.5 pounds per acre. For soil drench applications, it is typically applied at 0.25 to 1.25 pounds per acre. It is typically applied as a spray, but it can also be applied as a soil drench.
Safety Precautions
Pendant 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.
Precautions for Use
- Do not apply Pendant to turfgrass that is stressed or under drought conditions.
- Do not apply Pendant to turfgrass that is already showing signs of weed damage.
- Do not apply Pendant to turfgrass that is close to maturity.
- Do not apply Pendant to waterbodies, including surface water and groundwater.
Restricted Uses
Pendant is not restricted for use on any specific crop or in any particular areas. However, it is always a good idea to consult the product label for specific instructions and information.
Conclusion
Pendant is a versatile and effective herbicide that can be used to control a wide range of annual and perennial weeds in turfgrass and other crops. When used according to label directions, Pendant can help to maintain a healthy, weed-free lawn or landscape.
