As a lawn care operator, keeping the properties you service weed-free is a top priority. Finding a powerful yet versatile herbicide is key in the battle against crabgrass, goosegrass, and other troublesome weeds. Enter Dimension® specialty herbicide – a trusted solution that goes beyond standard pre-emergence control by delivering early post-emergence control as well.

Dimension’s unique ability to offer pre- and early post-emergence control extends the application window, allowing for application from early to midseason without switching products, even after crabgrass germination. This longer application window gives operators more time and confidence to make precise applications.

Comprehensive Weed Control

Dimension is a comprehensive solution targeting over 45 grassy and small-seeded broadleaf weeds, including crabgrass and goosegrass, that often wreak havoc on lawns and athletic fields.

Due to its unique pre- and post-emergence control, Dimension makes crabgrass control easy. For effective pre-emergence control of crabgrass, apply Dimension 2EW at a rate of one to two pints (0.25 to 0.5 lb. active ingredient) per acre. This can be done as a single application or multiple applications at intervals of five to ten weeks, as advised on the label.

For post-emergence control, applying Dimension 2EW at one to two pints (0.25 to 0.5 lb. active ingredient) per acre has demonstrated effective control of crabgrass up to the three- to five-tiller growth stage in regions dominated by warm-season turfgrasses. In areas with cool-season turfgrasses, applying Dimension 2EW before the initial tiller stage of crabgrass, which would be less than five leaves per plant, provides early post-emergence crabgrass control.

When it comes to goosegrass management, Dimension provides excellent pre-emergence control. Make two Dimension applications before germination. The first application should be applied when soil temperatures reach 55 to 60 degrees at 0.5 lb. active ingredient per acre. Apply the second application at a rate of 0.5 lb. active ingredient per acre four to six weeks later. In more southern regions, apply a third application six to eight weeks after the second application for extended season control. Split applications are recommended for targeting both crabgrass and goosegrass.

Versatile and Non-Staining Formulations

Dimension is versatile. It can be applied to turf, landscapes, or bare ground. Moreover, its different formulations – liquid, WSP, granular, and on-fertilizer – are non-staining. Say goodbye to worries about staining equipment, structures, or driveways.

Plant Safety Assurance

Weed control is essential, but not at the expense of turf and ornamental health. Dimension has an outstanding safety record, demonstrating exceptional tolerance on established cool- and warm-season turfgrasses and more than 440 ornamental plants. The broad label instills confidence that the target weeds will be controlled.

Dimension isn’t just a weed control solution; it’s a strategic partner for lawn care operators. Its extended application window, non-staining formulations, and exceptional plant safety make it the ultimate solution for vibrant, weed-free properties throughout the season.
