Weeds and their seeds are brought into the greenhouse on infested plant material, tools, equipment, animals and people. Seeds can be moved by wind (dandelion, horseweed, groundsel), irrigation water (chickweed) and by seeds being naturally propelled (woodsorrel, bittercress). Annual weeds reproduce primarily be seed with several generations occurri...
Prevention and sanitation are the first steps to managing weeds. Keep weed seeds and rhizomes out of greenhouses by using clean growing media, clean plant material and controlling weeds outside of the greenhouse. Keep growing media covered and control weeds around the media storage area. Regularly mowing around the greenhouse will keep the majority...
The use of a physical barrier such as weed block fabric helps to prevent weeds from establishing on greenhouse floors. It is best to leave the fabric uncovered so it can be easily swept. Fabric that is covered with crushed stone or other material collects fallen growing media, creating a favorable environment for weed seedlings to germinate. Tears,...
Existing weeds can be controlled by hand or by using herbicides. Preemergence herbicides are applied to soil to prevent the emergence of seedlings. There are currently no preemergence herbicides labeled for greenhouse use. (Note: Surflan (oryzalin) is no longer registered for use in enclosed greenhouses). Postemergence herbicides are applied after ...
In addition to chemical herbicides, there are a few bioherbicides, natural-based herbicides that can be used by organic growers. Specific natural-based herbicides include acetic acid, citric acid, citrus oil, and clove oil (eugenol). These materials are postemergence, non-selective, contact herbicides that work in various ways, but basically disrup...
Few chemical herbicides are labeled for use in greenhouses due to the potential for crop injury or death. Injury can occur from spray drift if fans are operating at the time of application. Injury can also occur from herbicides that are volatile (change from liquid to gas). Auxin-type herbicides such as turf herbicides containing 2,4D dicamba, and ...
Symptoms of herbicide injury include discolored, thickened or stunted leaves. Sometimes the growing point of young seedlings is injured. Some herbicides may cause foliage to turn white, while others caused leaves to become distorted, cupped or strapped. The possibility of herbicide injured plants recovering depends on the sensitivity of the plants ...
Herbicides for an Empty Greenhouse
Postemergence herbicides: glyphosate (Roundup Pro, Roundup Pro Concentrate, Razor), non-selective, systemic, postemergence herbicides, no residual control or pre-emergence activity. Preemergence herbicide: indaziflam (Marengo), for use on greenhouse floors in an empty greenhouse.
Herbicides for use when crops are present
ammonium nonanoate (Axxe) Non-selective herbicide, works by contact. clethodim (Envoy Plus) Selective, postemergence herbicide, for the control of grasses only, works by contact. glufosinate-ammonium (Finale) Non-selective, postemergence, systemic herbicide. fluazifop-P-butyl (Fusilade II) Selective, postemergence, systemic herbicide, for the control of grasses only. diquat dibromide (Diquat SPC 2L, Reward) Non-selective contact herbicide. pelargonic acid (Scythe) Non-selective, postemergence...
In addition to mowing, herbicides may also be used outside of greenhouses. Before spraying weeds around the greenhouse with any herbicide, close windows and vents to prevent spray drift from entering the greenhouse. Avoid using auxin-type herbicides, such as those labeled for broadleaf weed control in turf or brushkillers, or herbicides with high v...
