can you use this before you lay sod? using this on flortam sod
Dismiss Turf Herbicide should only be applied to established sod, generally at least 3 months after installation and not within 3 months of harvesting new sod, per the product label. Keep in mind that Dismiss may cause temporary discoloration on sensitive grasses such as Floratam. Since this is just a post-emergent herbicide, it would not be applied to bare ground before sod is installed.
