No atrazine! Use Strategy or Sandea and follow label directions.

I use Strategy. It has to be watered in to be effective which is a big pain. It is very thorough on a lot of the nuicance broad leaves.

Atrazine is a broadleaf weed killer and will toast pumpkins. Preen (Treflan) will help with foxtail and grasses. If he is seeding direct in the ground, spray with Roundup or generic glyphosate before they sprout to kill existing weeds. You can shield the pumpkins when small and spray around them with glyphosate. Once they really start spreading out they should shade out most of the weeds.
