Harrell’s ProtectMAX® Southside is designed for broad-spectrum control of key sedges and 110 other grassy and broadleaf weeds. This cost-effective solution can be used alone or in tank mixes and is safe on warm-season grasses, including Bermuda grass, Zoysia grass, St. Augustine grass, and Centipede grass. Its convenient formulation allows for use across many areas, including golf, residential, sports fields, sod farms, institutional, commercial, and industrial settings.

As weed pressures continue to intensify across warm-season turf environments, turf managers are looking for stronger, more flexible tools that can address multiple challenges at once. ProtectMAX Southside was developed with this need in mind, offering a dependable and streamlined option for professionals who want to simplify their programs without sacrificing performance. Because it targets such a broad range of common and troublesome species, it helps turfgrass professionals maintain cleaner, healthier playing surfaces and landscapes throughout the growing season.

Harrell’s Director of Agronomy, Dr. Jeff Atkinson, said this about Harrell’s newest solution, “Harrell’s ProtectMAX Southside Broadleaf and Sedge Herbicide is a novel formulation of two proven active ingredients. By systemically controlling a wide array of broadleaf and sedge species at an affordable price, Southside provides tremendous value to golf course superintendents, lawn care operators, and field managers alike.”

This added value is especially important as labor, time, and budget pressures continue to rise within the turf industry. A product that brings reliable results, compatibility with existing programs, and trusted performance can make a meaningful difference in overall productivity. ProtectMAX Southside fits seamlessly into integrated weed management approaches, offering turf managers the ability to fine-tune applications for both curative and ongoing control. Its ease of mixing and application also supports more efficient spray operations—an advantage across golf courses, sports complexes, and high-use commercial properties.
