Which specific weeds are you having problems with? There are many herbicides that are safe for bermuda, but they all target different subsets of weeds.

The Bermuda Triangle is a popular approach that will take care of many common weeds, but there are a few exceptions if you want to use selective herbicides for everything.

 

I'm pretty sure I have Virginia buttonweed and nutsedge. The buttonweed is getting aggressive. Hopefully someone has delt with this in the past with success.

Thanks again

 

Celsius is labeled to control Virginia buttonweed but will likely take two apps.

Certainty for the sedge or Kyllinga. Add quicksilver for quicker burn down.

Celsius, Certainty and Quicksilver cover most weeds that come up in warm season lawns. :thumbup:

What about Nimblewill?

Apply any time during the growing season or is there a preferred window?

 

good luck with your virginia buttonweed, it will be a battle! depending on the severity of your problem it likely wont be gone with two apps of celsius. my new home had a huge infestation of VB. i had to physically remove on patch of about 60 sq ft. that left nothing but bare soil the mat had grown so thick. what ive done is i applied my yearly max of celsius in two blanket applications in the spring. (one at max label rate and a second 4 weeks later with what was left available to meet the yearly max). i had to spray a few more sprouts with MSM in early summer. (its something i had available and is labeled for suppression of VB). it knocked back what had come up but i have more sprouts popping up in trouble areas in the last couple of weeks that i am going to his with dismiss NXT tonight (again labeled for suppression and available to me, plus targeting other weeds i have coming up.)

all the research i have done has found that with major issues like i have its a multi year battle. that being said celsius did a good job, it took its sweet time doing it but im confident it will take care of it with time. ill do the same thing next year, heavy celsius app in spring and use my other chems if more pop up. my huge problem areas have grown back in all except the biggest patch, its grown in 95%. (ive found other issues hindering the spread of my bermuda in that area)

Thank you. This is very helpful. This stuff has just spread like wildfire over the past couple of weeks. I'm ordered some Celsius and will hit it when it arrives. Has anyone had any success with Celsius in flowerbeds? I ask cause I have many on my property and was hoping to hit them too if it's OK.

Thanks again.

 

Head over to Lowes and get Spectracide Weed Stop, which will kill crabgrass and yellow nutsedge. Safe for Bermuda below 90 spray temps. I spot sprayed yesterday and now I await the results.

 

Celsius isnt labeled for ornamental plants. and i would not recommend trying it. i use dismiss NXT in my flower beds if i have too.

fwiw i have pampas grass and some rose bushes in a couple of flower beds. i got kinda close to the knock out roses as i didnt really mind if i happened to kill them, they are hearty bushes and survive the celsius app. so did the pampas grass (unfortunately) i stayed away from my other rose bushes as they were fresh planted in spring when i sprayed. and i could not risk killing the tequila sunrise bushes. those were so hard to even get my hands on, i dig out any weeds that pop up in that bed.
