Need something to combat crabgrass, yellow nut sedge, goose grass, dan-d-lions, spurge and clover. What ONE product is a good per-emergent for all these?

slomo

Say with me all together: Prodiamine.

 

[Ware]

Sedge is tough to control with pre-e herbicides alone because it can spread from the underground nutlets/tubers - versus simply germinating from seed. I also usually get a little spurge each year because it arrives so late in the season, but before my fall pre-e app.

Tenacity in the fall - allows for seeding and kills all that PLUS... gets your winter annuals.

Prodiamine in the spring when forsythia blooms at rate to last you until autumn temps get down to mid-70's for a week or two. Rinse, repeat.

Specticle, spring and fall, even has yellow sedgehammer on the label.

Your only other option would be echelon.

If you feel like violating the law, (I would never ever ever do such a thing 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣&#129315, oxadiazon, or Ronstar, would serve you well.

Easy now - this is the warm season subforum. Tenacity is not safe for use on warm season grasses. :no:

Echlon = prodiamine plus sulfentrazone, so keep that in mind if you'd rather just get them separately.

Specticle's label specifies that it only works against annual sedges coming from seed, not tubers, where the Ronstar label doesn't include the same clarification.

Yes, you are right. Thanks, Ware. I did not notice that I had stumbled into the warm side.

Warm season lawns seem very difficult to grow and maintain. I think I'll Google me some pictures of southern lawns and prove myself wrong about that, too.

Not trying to derail but would ronstar or prodiamine be a better option for long lasting in a home lawn?

Ronstar is expensive and only lasts 2-3 months.

My vote would be prodiamine for most cases. You can change the amount applied to increase the length of coverage, per the label.

Good golly, Miss. Molly! Those are some terrific lawns!! I read the whole thread.

I can't get over how low they are mowing. I had never heard of leveling with sand. It doesn't seem possible! Love the domination shots. I even like the term "domination line!" Very cool.

Thanks for sharing that! I don't feel so badly for those guys in the heat anymore.

I'm gathering that you haven't seen wardconnor's reel mowed KBG lawn being leveled with sand yet either. It's not a trick for just us warm-season grass lovers.

Back to the thread, Echelon looks nice, but man it's SOOPER expensive. I'd rather go with Prodiamine apps.

Hmm a lot of people seem to think this, maybe it has been in the past but now it's available for $25. http://www.domyownpestcontrol.com/qualipro-oxadiazon-50-wsb-p-16659.html

Just be mindful the product linked is not labeled for home lawns.

I was reading the instructions and it said something about only applying it to DORMANT lawns, which seemed kind of odd to me.

The qualipro label doesn't seem to mention it but the ronstar label says you can apply on actively growing turf as long as you water it in

And definitely, do not mow the day after u apply ronstar, bad burnspots that last all season could occur ... don't ask how I know that

Which label were you reading? The ronstar granular, the 50 WSP, or the ronstar Flo liquid?

I thought the granular was the only one that could be applied to non dormant Bermuda, and it still needs to be watered in.
