Not sure if this belongs in Warm Season or not. If not moderators please move.
Last year my mother-in-law decided to skip her son-in-laws advice on lawn and go with a fast talking salesman. They convinced her to hydroseed her lawn in microclover. WTF.
Ok anyway it looked surprisingly good only needed mowing 1 a month and no fertilizer requirements.

I asked her if i could put down pre-m in the spring. She said that the "All Knowing hydro-seeder said weed control wasnt required Ever"
Well she has grass in her clover now. a little bit of warm season Bermuda and cool season fescue.
Is thier anything on this earth that will kill weeds and not clover???
I know it an oxymoron like having a dandelion lawn and asking for weed control.
I gave up but now she is looking to me for advice since the hydroseeder wont return her calls.

Fusilade II. Bermuda totaled as well as the Fescue. You should be so lucky that there is only grass contamination of the Clover. For the broadleaves, very low rates of straight 2,4-D Amine might work. There are some super expensive selective herbicides for treatment of legume crops. But we are talking about stuff that costs over $400 per gallon and is applied at an ounce or two per Acre.

I vote kill the clover and let that bermuda stretch its legs. (devils advocate)

Lol, see if she's willing to try a monoculture of dalisgrass cut reel low with PGR.

:laughing: Due to ignorance, vast areas in Hawaii are Bluestem. Kill that chit don't cut it.

Yeah but then I'll have to maintain it. I can barely keep my lawn mowed.
Micro clover is what I'm getting when I'm 75 years old and a broken hip. Centipede has nothing on it as far as a lazy man grass. Well I guess because it's not a grass

What's the pgr rate for clover? Lol lol I only mow once a month. Can I go every 2 months. Hmmmmmmmmm

 

[Greendoc]

PGR for clover is not T-NEX. It is very low rates of Paclobutrazol(Trimmit) or else very low rates of Flurprimidol(Cutless). Might not have to mow at all, but growth also is what repairs wear from people walking on it.
