  • Asked by Hanna from Los Angeles, Ca

    Q
    Which product is recommended to kill crab grass, dandelion, and other weeds in ice plant ground cover?
    A

    You can use a grass killer such as Fusilade to kill grassy weeds around the ice plant groundcover:

    This product will be best used around established ornamentals and ground covers (do not use in desirable turfgrass).

    For broadleaf weeds such as dandelion, there are not any selective herbicides to kill the weeds but not potentially harm the ground cover, so we recommend spot treating carefully using a non-selective product like GlyPhoSel Pro

    You can also use pre-emergent herbicide going forward in spring and/or fall to prevent weed growth. Snapshot is our most popular choice for use around ornamentals and groundcovers.

    Q
    How long after spraying Drive XLR8 Herbicide can I fertilize?
    I sprayed yesterday and my next fertilizing app is scheduled for tomorrow.
    A

    There is not a specific amount of time you need to wait to apply your fertilizer after applying Drive XLR8 Herbicide. Since Drive works best when it has at least 24 hours to dry after application, then waiting at least 1 day before watering or applying a liquid fertilizer would be advantageous.

    Q
    Will Drive XLR8 Herbicide Crabgrass Killer kill crows foot grass?
    A

    Drive XLR8 Herbicide Crabgrass Killer is not labeled for crowfoot grass.  For crowfoot, it is generally recommended to treat with a pre-emergent product. Something like Ferti-Lome Weed and Feed with Dimension would be an excellent option. This will be used either in early spring or in the fall. 
    For the weeds that are there now, we would recommend spot treating with a glyphosate product and reseed/sod the areas. This will kill whatever it comes in contact with.

    Q
    Would Drive XLR8 kill crabgrass seedheads while killing the crabgrass?
    I have full grown crabgrass with seed heads everywhere.
    A

    Drive XLR8 is a post-emergent herbicide only. So while it will kill existing plants, it does not prevent new seeds from germinating. We recommend using a pre-emergent such as Dimension 2EW in the spring before soil temps reach 55 degrees to prevent new crabgrass from growing next year.
