A. total of ten varieties of field-seeded and transplant tomatoes were tested. Spray applications were made with either a modif~ed Hahn Hi-Boy sprayer or a ~~lky spray unit. Plot sizes varied in the different experimehts but were usually greater than 50 square feet. Weed control wa~ determined by counts or visual ratings. Table 3 presents data from a typical pre-emergent experiment on field-seeded tomatoes. Application was made immediately after seeding the tomatoes. Grass weeds were large crabgrass and yellow foxtail. Table 4 presents typical data from an experiment on transplant tomatoes. In this experiment diphenamid was applied as an overtop treatment on the transplants pre-emergence to the weeds. Grass weeds were large crabgrass and yellow foxtail; broadleaves were pigweed, lambsquarters, smartweed, and ragweed. In all tests, four pounds per acre was adequate for weed control on light soils. Six pounds per acre was needed for heavy soils. On heavy soils, field-seeded and transplant tomatoes were not d.amaged by diphenamid at rates through fifteen pounds per acre. In one experiment of the fiv~ experiments oonducted on sandy soils,.moderate early injury to the tomatoes was noted at the ten pound rate. A. month later this damage had disappeared. Final yields were not reduced in any of the experiments. It is apparent .~~+ A~_~_~~_~~ ~ __ft~_ ~_ ~ __ ~_ ~ ' __ ~ L _
