Field studies were conducted for 3 yr to determine weed and potato response to preemergence (PRE) and postemergence (POST) applications of rimsulfuron, metribuzin, and rimsulfuron plus metribuzin. Preemergence applications of rimsulfuron at 27 g ai/ha and POST applications at 18 g/ha controlled barnyardgrass, redroot pigweed, and wild buckwheat. Common lambsquarters was controlled by PRE or POST applications of metribuzin or a tank mixture of 18 g/ha rimsulfuron plus 140 g ai/ha of metribuzin. ‘Russet Burbank’ potato was relatively tolerant to all rimsulfuron, metribuzin, and rimsulfuron plus metribuzin applications, and potato yield was not reduced compared to the hand-weeded control.

‘Atlantic’ and ‘Russet Burbank’ potato cultivars were grown on mineral and organic soils either with or without weeds and were hilled at two stages of potato development (potatoes cracking through the soil and potatoes 30 cm tall). A single hilling procedure was not adequate in either year for full-season weed control. Early hilling suppressed weeds and increased tuber yields more than conventional hilling on mineral soils in 1988 only. Early hilling tended to increase the relative biomass of C4weeds compared to C3weeds for both soils. Weeds reduced aboveground potato biomass on mineral and muck soils. However, reduced aboveground potato biomass measurements did not predict tuber yield reductions. Marketable yield of Russet Burbank potato was reduced by weed interference more than the yield of Atlantic on mineral soils when planted according to conventional cultural practices. However, the marketable yield of Atlantic potato was reduced more than Russet Burbank yield by weeds on muck soils. Weed interference influenced tuber quality on both mineral and muck soil.
