Effect on burweed
By Jerry on 01/11/2021
The label on Pendulum 2G says that this product targets lawn burweed. DoMyOwn staff recommended it. My Clemson extension agent says it doesn't prevent burweed germination. I spread two bags on my lawn October 1, but burweed is already sprouting, Guess my Clemson agent was correct.

Not anywhere close to as good as Pendulum 3.3 EC Herbicide
By Lawn on 03/03/2021
Not anywhere close to as good as Pendulum 3.3 EC Herbicide. I have used Pendulum 3.3 EC Herbicide (liquid) for almost five years. It's worked great for knocking down clover, broadleaf, and crabgrass. This year DoMyOwn showed the product as "out of stock" so I went with the granular version. Weeds loved it. They're having a weed party on my lawn and it's not even spring. Now I am back to pulling weeds from my lawn. Gonna be a long, ugly summer. Pendulum 3.3 EC Herbicide is labeled as toxic and cancerous, but it works. Pass on Pendulum 2G Granular Herbicide If you want a nice lawn, hire the firm that cares for golf courses.

More weeds
By Karen on 11/05/2022
When I put the Pendulum down it was a fall preventative. A couple of weeks later, i have dandelions coming up which i have NEVER had before. Actually had minimal to no weeds overall and now this. Please tell me Do My Own. Do you offer ANY pre-emergents that actually work or do i need to lay down twice as much as the recommended dose?
Expert response:
Thank you for taking the time to review this product. We are sorry to hear that you are not happy with the results, however please keep in mind that this product is a pre-emergent which is only effective at targeting weed seedlings that have not yet begun to germinate and will not kill actively growing weeds. Weeds like dandelion are more of warm season weeds, which means that they had most likely already begun to grow under the soil surface before you applied the product and they continued to grow and emerge in your lawn. The application you made will be effective at preventing winter weeds that had not yet begun to germinate at the time you applied the product. You can make another pre-emergent application in the early Spring as the temperature starts rising but before the soil temperatures get to 55 degrees, which is when the early weeds like crabgrass begin to germinate. We suggest that you take some time to refer to our lawn care guides linked below for more details on timings for pre-emergents and for a more in-depth explanation on caring for your lawn and weed prevention as well as weed control. Just let us know if we can be of any further assistance. We appreciate your business!!
