Marengo for greenhouse floors
Marengo is a selective pre-emergent alkylazine herbicide containing the new active ingredient, indaziflam, which belongs to a new MOA (Mode of Action) group 29, a class of herbicides that inhibit cellulose biosynthesis. Marengo is very water insoluble and does not volatilize.
The new use pattern allows growers to apply under benches, on ground cloth, on gravel areas, and on dirt floors, in greenhouse structures.
Marengo is now registered for use in production ornamentals (in outdoor nurseries, shadehouses, and hoophouses), conifers, Christmas trees, greenhouse floors (under benches), ornamental production sites, and hardscapes.

Get the Scoop
This multipurpose scoop fork features an all-poly construction that reduces tool weight, yet tackles moving mulch. Beveled tines pierce through mulch piles, straw, compost, leaves, hay, and more, while the deep, scoop-shaped tines yield a high-carrying capacity for each load. The 8-tine construction features an average 1-3/8 inch tine spacing, similar to A.M. Leonard’s forged fork, to adequately hold materials. The poly handle has a comfortable feel and the large 1-3/8 inch diameter grip is textured for slip resistance. Handle length of 45.5 inches provides good reach and balanced control. 14.5-inch-long by 15-inch-wide head; 48-inch handle. Made in the USA.
