Prime Source’s Sublime Herbicide now registered

Prime Source, a division of Albaugh, LLC, announced the U.S. EPA registration of its new Sublime Herbicide.

Sublime is a patent-pending, selective herbicide that combines mesotrione, triclopyr and dicamba into a premium non-2,4-D option for professional turfgrass managers. In trials, it did not show the unsightly weed bleaching associated with other mesotrione herbicides. Sublime is labeled for the control of more than 200 broadleaf weeds including challenging species such as ground ivy, spurge, yellow wood sorrel, Virginia buttonweed and wild violet, along with several grassy weed species.

Sublime is labeled for application to weeds growing in cool-season and certain warm-season turf species, including Kentucky bluegrass, perennial ryegrass, tall fescue, fine fescue, zoysia and dormant warm-season turf species including centipede, St. Augustine (sod), and Bermuda in commercial and residential turfgrasses. Use sites include golf courses, sod farms, athletic fields, parks, residential and commercial properties, cemeteries, airports, and lawns.

″Sublime has been described as a fantastic herbicide by one university trial cooperator,″ Prime Source technical services manager Bret Corbett said. ″It offers an exciting, effective and divergent alternative to other turf herbicides in the market″.

State registrations for Sublime are currently underway and the product should be available for shipment in Q4 through the Prime Source distribution network.
