    Q
    Can I use Ornamec 170 to spot treat Bermuda grass without causing harm to my bahiagrass?
    I have large patches and isolated spots of Bermuda grass in my Bahia lawn.
    A

    Gordons Ornamec 170 Grass Herbicide can only be used on cool season turf to remove bermuda, it can also injure the bahia.  There is no selective product to remove one from the other really.   Your best option would be to spot treat with a glyphosate based product and then reseed/sod the areas

    Q
    Can Gordons Ornamec 170 Grass Herbicide be used to control bermudagrass in buffalograss?
    I am trying to reduce Bermuda grass in Buffalo grass. Is it safe for Buffalo? Thank you
    A

    Gordons Ornamec 170 Grass Herbicide does not list buffalograss as tolerant turfgrass type on the product label therefore would not be recommended as it could injure the desriable buffalograss. 

    Bermudagrass is difficult to control and will take multiple applications and possibly a season or two to eliminate completely. We would recommend spot treating the bermudagrass when it it is actively growing with Roundup QuickPRO and then reseeding/resodding after 2 weeks.

    Will Ornamec 170 harm Bahia grass?
    A

    We cannot say for certain if the bahia grass would be harmed or not by Gordons Ornamec 170 Grass Herbicide as this product is not specifically labeled for bahia. If you do not wish to harm the bahia, we would not recommend using this product as bahia is not labeled as tolerable. Also, if you are wanting to control the bahia, we cannot guarantee this product would work for your situation.

    Q
    Does Ornamec 170 when mixed with water turn white?
    Hi- I followed the instructions for spot spraying using 10 oz Ornamec per 1 gallon water. I added all of the water then the Ornamec and forgot to agitate. About after 1/2 gallon had been sprawled the solution that came out of sprayer was white whereas it was clear before.
    A

    Gordons Ornamec 170 Grass Herbicide Safety Data Sheet says the color of the chemical should be amber in color, and may not turn white unless it foams up a bit in the water if you did not agitate before this could happen because it was not mixed properly.

  • Asked by Tim from Gallatin
    09/01/2022
    Q
    Will Gordons Ornamec 170 Grass Herbicide kill bermuda in fescue lawns?
    The term "control" is used, does this mean that Gordons 170 will or will not kill bermuda. Please specify. Does this product kill Bermuda, or control it?
    A

    Gordons Ornamec 170 Grass Herbicide is pnly labeled to control/suppress bermuda in fescue but may not fully kill it completely. Bermuda is very difficult to eliminate completely due to how quickly and wide spread the roots will develop. It will take repeat applications and possible 1-2 growing seasons to eliminate. 

    Applicaitons should be made is spring or fall and after green up. Repeat applications at 14 to 21 day intervals should regrowth occur. Take precautions during summer months (July & August) when applying to tall fescue.

  • Asked by Jack
    09/05/2022
    Q
    Will Ornamec 170 kill the roots of Bermuda grass that has gone dormant?
    A

    The best time to treat unwanted bermudagrass is during the transition period in spring when it’s coming out of dormancy and then again in the fall as it transitions back into dormancy. This is when the bermudagrass is the weakest and most sensitive.

    Gordons Ornamec 170 Grass Herbicide is only going to be effective on bermuda when it’s acitvely growing.

    Keep in mind, bermudagrass is very difficult to eliminate and will require multiple applications and can take up to several seasons to fully eliminate.

    Q
    Will using Gordon's Ornamec 170 kill the Bermuda grass and not harm my lawn of rye grass/ fescue mix?
    The Bermuda grass has spread rapidly through both my front and back lawns. The grass seed mix I use is 34% Pavilion Perennial Ryegrass/ 34% Private Perennial Ryegrass/ 19% Seducer Chewings Fescue/9.85 Cindy Lou Creeping Red Fescue. Will the product harm these other grasses and kill the Bermuda grass?
    A

    Gordons Ornamec 170 Grass Herbicide is a grass killer and will harm Kentucky Bluegrass and Ryegrass if sprayed.  When applied to grasses as directed (Spring/Fall), it can only be on Tall Fescue and Zoyiagrass.

  • Asked by Judy from Henderson, Nv

    Q
    Can Ornamec 170 Grass Herbicide be used next to dwarf mock orange bushes without harming the bushes?
    My dwarf mock oranges are planted in a border of river rock separated from the lawn by concrete curbing. The lawn is mostly tall fescue, but has some Bermuda grass in it which keeps popping up next to and around the bushes, Each bush has a drip emitter. I live in Las Vegas, NV.
    A
    Gordons Ornamec 170 Grass Herbicide does not list dwarf mock orange on the product label as tolerable but not all species have been tested.  It would be recommended to test on a small area before broadcasting over the top of the bushes, or just spot treat the bermudagrass directly avoiding contact with the bushes.

    Can Ornamec 170 be used to eradicate grass in a poppy field?
    A

    Gordons Ornamec 170 Grass Herbicide is not labeled for poppies, so unfortunately we cannot say how it would affect them. We would recommend doing a spot treatment first to see how they react. It is safe for a vast majority of ornamentals though

    Q
    How early (late winter or early spring) can this be applied to Bermuda?
    I have a line of blue pacific junipers (about 170 down my property line) and my Bermuda sod is invading them. I'd like to get this down as soon as possible (it's currently mid-winter in Georgia), but I'm not sure what is most effective with the Bermuda coming out of dormancy.
    A
    We would recommend using Ferti-Lome Over The Top II in established junipers for targeting Bermuda. It needs to be applied when weeds are actively growing and temperatures are around 65-85 degrees F.

    06/26/2021
    Q
    Is Gordons Ornamec 170 Grass Herbicide safe for use on Buffalograss Lawn to suppress Bermuda.?
    A

    Gordons Ornamec 170 Grass Herbicide is safe only on tall fescue and zoysia turfgrasses as labeled for Bermudagrass suppression. Unfortunately, we do not currently have a product labeled for suppression of Bermudagrass that is also safe for buffalograss. We recommend spot treating the Bermuda with a non-selective herbicide such as Killzall and then reseeding any bare spots.

    Q
    Will Gordons Ornamec 170 Grass Herbicide work to remove Bermuda from my centipede lawn?
    A

    Gordons Ornamec 170 Grass Herbicide could harm Centipede grass as it is not labeled for it. This product is mainly used in and around groundcovers ornamental beds, landscape beds etc. We apologize, but we actually do not carry a product that is labeled to remove Bermuda grass from Centipede. The only suggestion we can give is to kill the Bermuda with a glyphosate product and then re-seed the centipede in those areas.
