Table 2.2-15. Weed sizes for postemergence corn herbicides

This table lists postemergence corn herbicides, their rates, and heights of weed species that are controlled or suppressed. This table is only a “quick reference”; refer to the herbicide label for additional information on application and timing.

**Table 2.2-15. Weed sizes for postemergence corn herbicides. (Grasses)**
Grasses	Barnyard- grass	Crab- grass	Fall panicum	Foxtail spp.	Johnson- grass (seedling)	Johnson- grass (rhizome)	Quack- grass	Shatter- cane	Wirestem muhly	Yellow nutsedge
* Suppression only; additional control measures may be necessary. For use on IMI or CL corn varieties only. Maximum height at application for yellow foxtail: Ignite = 3–4 inches; Lightning = 3 inches; Pursuit = 3 inches. Yellow foxtail suppression only. For use on LibertyLink/GR corn hybrids only. For use on Roundup Ready corn hybrids only.
