Hello everyone! I live in Central NJ (Zone 7B) and thought it would be interesting to see what everyone has in their lawn care arsenal. I’ll go first.

In no particular order, here goes:
T-Zone SE - broadleaf herbicide
Tenacity - pre and post emergent
Sedgehammer - nutsedge herbicide
Weed-B-Gone - general herbicide
Crossbow - woody plants & ivy
Surfactant & Blue Dye
Quinclorac 75 - post emergent crabgrass control
Stress blend 7–0–20 - fertilizer
Freedom 17-7-6 - fertilizer
Flagship 24-0-6 - Fertilizer
Prodiamine - pre-emergent
Humic 12 - biostimulant
Air 8 - biostimulant
Hydretain - moisture manager
RGS - Biostimulant
Micro Greene - Biostimulant
Glyphosate - nonspecific herbicide

Let me know what you use and if there’s a better products out there! Looking forward to seeing everyone’s collection.

This is a good exercise for me to tally up what I have on my shelf, from memory, so here goes.
For my cool-season turf:

  • Prodiamine 65wdg
  • Generic 3-way
  • triclopyr ester
  • Sulfentrazone
  • Ethofumesate
  • Mesotrione
  • 80/20 NIS
  • 50% glyphosate
  • soluble Ammonium Sulfate
  • soluble Urea
  • soluble Sulfate of Potash
  • 14-2-14 greens-grade granular
  • GCF Sea-K
  • Azoxystrobin
  • Propiconazole
  • T-Methyl
  • Sync Fungicide Adjuvant
  • various insecticides used on turf and around the house (Bifen, Cyzmic, Onslaught Fastcap, ..
EDIT to Add:
  • T-Nex
  • Ferrous Sulfate (soluble)
  • Citric Acid

I'm hoping that is all 😅

very SE VA.

T zone SE (front yard TTTF)
NIS
Celsius (back yard Bermuda)
Certainty
Sedgehammer
Soluble urea 46-0-0
5-0-20
Glyphosate
Bifen IT
Abamectin

Prodiamine 65wg
I'm in very NE NC (I've lived in Chesapeake and VA Beach as well). My front yard is TTTF, back yard is carpetgrass and Bermuda. I've been encouraging the carpetgrass this year but it's really slow and there's a bunch of Bermuda in the mix. I might just go with Bermuda next year. I might copy your setup. Where do you buy your 46-0-0 and 5-0-20?

Urea
AMS
Iron (probably Ferrous Gluconate going by colour and % of Fe of product, sadly isn't properly declared on the label)
Polyhalit (K fertilizer with calcium and magnesium)
and a weak NPK fertilizer to get some P down just to prevent a lack of it)

Sadly there are barely any proper herbicides and only pre-/post-emergents for agricultural crops available in my country, otherwise I'd have some of those as well.

No Pesticides as I didn't have any problems yet. No Fungicides because I didn't bother yet, had one breakout this spring due to the constant wet weather and cured the lawn by manually raking out dead debri, scalping ans feeding N afterwards. Solved the issue within two weeks for me.
