Snapshot 2.5 TG Pre-Emergent Herbicide
Snapshot 2.5 TG Pre-Emergent Herbicide
Snapshot 2.5 TG Pre-Emergent Herbicide, manufactured by DOW/CORTEVA, is a specialty pre-emergent herbicide that controls weeds for up to six to eight months to keep landscapes, container- and field-grown nursery ornamentals weed-free, saving you time and money in just one application.
This granular product controls or suppresses more than 125 broadleaf weeds and annual grasses and can be used over the top of more than 635 labeled ornamentals.
While Snapshot 2.5 TG is a granular herbicide, the way it easily disperses into the soil gives it the feel of a liquid herbicide.
Tools Needed
To apply Snapshot 2.5 TG Pre-Emergent Herbicide you will need a broadcast spreader, drop spreader, hand spreader, or a push spreader.
Do not aerially apply this product. Do not use spreaders that apply material in narrow concentrated bands.
How to Use
- Step 1: Determine how much Snapshot 2.5 TG Pre-Emergent Herbicide you will need to apply by calculating the square footage of your treatment area. To do this, measure (in feet) the area length and width and multiply the two values (length x width = square footage). To find acerage, take the square footage and divide it by one acre (square footage / 43,560 = acre). Snapshot 2.5 TG should be applied at a rate of 2.3 to 4.6 lb per 1000 square feet, depending on weeds to be controlled. For acerage applications, use 100 to 200 lbs. of product per acre. Do not apply over 600 lbs. of product per acre per total within a 12-month period.
- Step 2: Calibrate your spreader to the right spreader setting for application, refer to the product label for specifications. Load the measured amount of product into the spreader.
- Step 3: Spread half the amount of Snapshot 2.5 TG granules over the treatment area while walking at an even pace. Then, apply the remaining half of product in swaths at right angles to the first application starting point. Avoid skips or overlaps as poor weed control or crop injury may occur.
- Step 4: Water the lawn with 0.5 inches of irrigation or let rainfall activate the granules within 3 days of treatment for the best possible result. Repeat applications at 150 lb. per acre and higher should not be made until 60 days have passed after last application.
Where to Use
Snapshot 2.5 TG Pre-Emergent Herbicide can be used to control young broadleaf weeds and annual grasses in ornamental plantings, container and landscape ornamentals, nursery stock, Christmas trees, groundcovers/perennials, non-bearing fruit and nut trees, non-bearing vineyards and non-cropland areas.
This product is not recommended for weed control in turfgrasses, but turfgrasses are generally tolerant to small amounts of Snapshot 2.5 TG Pre-Emergent Herbicide that fall outside of the intended area of application.
When to Use
Snapshot 2.5G should be applied in late summer to early autumn or in early spring, prior to germination of target weeds, or immediately after cultivation.
Safety Information
Snapshot 2.5 TG is safe to use around children and pets when applied according to the product label instructions. Always wear the proper personal protective equipment (PPE) when mixing and applying this product.
Keep children, pets, and workers off treated areas until 12 hours have passed and treated areas are dry.
Special Considerations
Snapshot 2.5 TG Pre-Emergent Herbicide does not control established weeds, weeds growing from stolons, rhizomes, or root pieces. If weeds have already popped up out of the ground the product will not work and you will instead need to apply a post-emergent herbicide.

Q:Will this kill any plants in the lily family? I would like to spread it in my gardens.1/30/21A:I have only used it in my aisles prior to planting in plastic. I would not use it on or near existing plants as it could damage them. You should check the manufacturer's instructions or contact the company before use.
