    Q
    Will MSM Turf Herbicide kill my Bermuda that is just starting to emerge?
    I'm trying to kill Hairy Bittercress in my Bermuda lawn but my Bermuda is just starting to grow due to the afternoon late winter temps being in the low 70s. I can see green blades starting to emerge from the old brown grass.
    A

    You can apply MSM during dormancy or after complete green-up of the Bermuda lawn in the spring.  You don’t want to apply any weed controls to the lawn during spring green-up since this is when the grass is in its most fragile state.

    A

    No, MSM Turf Herbicide should only be applied to listed turf areas, and not in flower beds. You can refer to the product label for listed turf areas and for complete application instructions. For control of broadleaf weeds around flowers, you usually will need to hand pull or spot treat carefully using a non-selective herbicide.

    Q
    Will MSM Turf Herbicide kill Blackberry, Black Raspberry, Red Raspberry?
    Will MSM kill various thorny berry brushes in Mid Summer? I have multiple berry brush including Blackberry, Black Raspberry, Red Raspberry and Dewberry fields.
    A

    MSM Turf Herbicide is not labeled to target any berries and is most geared towards controlling broadleaf and grassy weeds, however if the MSM were to get too close to the plants or its root systems it could definitely harm them. If you need something to kill berry bushes we would recommend spraying them directly with a product like Crossbow

  • Asked by Eddie
    08/04/2021
    Q
    Can MSM Turf Herbicide be tank mixed with Drive XLR8 for a blanket application?
    A

    We recommend doing a Compatibility Test in small glass jar to test if MSM Turf Herbicide and Drive XLR8 are compatible before tank mixing. If there are signs of clumping or separation, do not tank mix these together and separate applications would be needed. 

    Before blanket spraying the tank mix combination, spot treat a small area of grass for tolerance since the turf will be more stressed in summer.When tank mixing, always follow the most restrictive product label for tank mixing instructions.

  • Asked by Seth from Monroe

    Q
    I am renovating my bermudagrass lawn in these next coming weeks and I want to kill all weeds in the lawn. Can MSM Turf Herbicide be used to kill all the weeds and allow me to still reseed with a bermuda/fescue seed as I have shade and sun in the yard. When should I plan to aerate the lawn? Before seeding o after seeding?
    A

    MSM Turf Herbicide can be applied as a broadcast application on Bermudagrass at 0.25 - 1.0 oz per acre. There may be some temporary chlorosis on desirable turfgrass. Since fescue can be sensitive to MSM Turf Herbicide, you should not seed for 2-4 months after applying this product unless you have done previous testing to indicate this is not an issue. Please refer to the product label for complete instructions and precautions. 

    Regarding your seeding in general, usually cool season turf like fescue is seeded in the fall and warm-season grasses like Bermudagrass are seeded in early summer. 

    If you do plan to schedule an aeration for your lawn it is important that any pre-emergent herbicide be applied after the aeration is completed. Aeration can be done spring-summer excess moisture is known to sit on the grass.

    Q
    To control Bahai grass, is it recommended to spray before or after mowing?
    Spray when the center stalk is fully deployed with the infamous "V" seed pods.
    A
    Because MSM Turf Herbicide works by being absorbed through the roots and by blocking cell division to prevent weed growth, applying before or after mowing should not make a difference, if used as directed on the manufacturer's product label.  On a side note, it is advisable to delay mowing for 2-3 days before and after any chemical treatment to your lawn.
