Spartan Herbicide is a pre-emergent herbicide that can be used as an effective tool to help Turf Managers control annual weeds (Summer & Winter).
Spartan Herbicide selectivity is primarily through soil profile placement. Small-seeded plants take up greater amounts of the herbicide as they germinate in the soil profile zone of herbicide placement. Warm Season grasses can be less prone to root inhibition due to the fact they have a multiple fibrous root system, hence good even coverage and incorporation is required to ensure the weeds cannot recover by establishing roots outside the zone of herbicide activity.

Season-long control of annual weeds
Reduces future weed set and germination
Reduces the reliance on costly selective post-emergent herbicides
Unscheduled (exempt from poison scheduling)

Minimises nutrient and sunlight competition from annual grasses
Application compatibility with wetting agents
Low odour formulation
Economical solution for your main annual weed problems including African Lovegrass, Parramatta Grass, Summer Grass, Crab Grass, Crowsfoot Grass and Winter Grass
Flexibility to delay wash-in for a few days if necessary
Please Note: Spartan Herbicide is a pre-emergent herbicide. It will not kill the weeds that are already present. It only stops weeds if applied before weed germination.
