We do not carry a product that will take Fescue out of Kentucky Blue Grass. Unfortunately those grasses are so closely related that you cannot selectively remove the fescue with any product that we are aware of. Your best option in this scenario is to kill the fescue with a Roundup Quikpro (glyphosate) product and then re-seed with your KBG.
Once mixed the shelf life of Round Up Quick Pro is only 24 hours so any mixed solution would need to be used in that time frame for effectiveness and to avoid any issues with clogging or corroding your sprayer.
Roundup QuikPRO - 5 x 1.5 oz. packs is a non-selective herbicide, so it will kill any grass or weeds it is applied to including poa annua. If you are targeting poa annua in a lawn you may want to go with a selective herbicide labeled for its control in warm season grass lawn types, or if you have a cool season grass lawn such as fescue or bluegrass you will need to carefully spot treat with a product like this.
Torpedo Grass is hard to treat. We are not aware of a product that will treat Torpedo and not harm St. Augustine. You may want to consider spot treating with RoundUp and reseed/resod. You may also contact the Master Gardener with the Cooperative Extension located in your county. You can find the County Extension Office here.
Quackgrass, unfortunately, is so closely related to Kentucky Bluegrass that most products that will kill quackgrass will also severely damage, if not kill the KBG. The common recommendation is to kill the quackgrass with a glyphosate product like Roundup QuikPRO and then reseed with KBG. You might also check with a master gardener or local landscaping company in your area for their best recommendations on products that they have used successfully.
Unfortunately, the only method to kill nimblewill in zoysia is to spot treat the weed areas with Roundup. This will need to be done multiple times to completely kill the weed. Then it is recommended to reseed the bare areas.
No, Dismiss NXT Herbicide is not labeled for torpedograss.
Since torpedograss is so closely related to St. Augustine and Centipede turfgrass, there is not a selective post emergent that would kill torpedograss without also injuring/killing your lawn. We would recommend using a non selective herbicide like Roundup Quick Pro to spot treat and kill the Torpedograss directly then reseeding or resodding the area after 2 weeks. .
Roundup QuikPRO - 5 x 1.5 oz. packs is a non selective herbicide and will kill turfgrass, flowers, bushes, trees and shrubs therefore is not recommended to be used in a hose end sprayer and should be applied as direct spray applications using ground broadcast equipment, backpack or handpump sprayers.
Per the Hand Held Sprayer Chart on page 3 of the product label, the mix rate is 1.2 to 1.5 oz per gallon of water depending on if you are targeting annuals, perennials or brush weeds.
Unfortunately there are no products available (that we carry or others carry) that will kill the Dallisgrass without killing the surrounding St. Augustine grass. The best option once it has emerged is to either spot spray or wipe on something like Round Up Quick Pro, or hand dig up the clumps of dallisgrass down to the root system and re-seed.
Roundup QuikPro is a non-selective herbicide, so it will kill just about anything you spray it on, including grass.
Yes, Roundup QuikPRO - 5 x 1.5 oz. packs will kill horseweed. Dilute 1.5 oz. per gallon of water.
Our expertise is mainly structural pests and plant infesting insect pests and we have just recently started carrying herbicides per customer request. While we are gaining more and more knowledge about these products everyday, we are not yet experts on them and refer questions about herbicides directly to the manufacturers. You may call the Monsanto Company, the manufacturer of RoundUp QuickPro for specific application advice. You can also read through the product label to see if it meets your needs.
Roundup QuikPRO - 5 x 1.5 oz. packs will kill ferns. This is a non-selective herbicide, so it will affect any plants sprayed with the product.
Unfortunately, we are not aware of a product which is labeled to control actively growing grass burrs or sand burrs that is also safe to be applied to bahia. What we typically recommend is that you spot treat as much as much as possible with a nonselective product (such as Roundup QuikPro) and then replant with the bahia in those areas in a couple of weeks when the grass/sandburrs are gone. To prevent any future growth of these weeds, you can apply a pre-emergent (such as Dimension 2EW) in the fall and spring.
Yes, Roundup QuikPRO will eliminate horsetail. Keep in mind that this is a non-selective herbicide so it will kill anything that it is sprayed on. Us caution if you are applying in an area where there is desireable vegetation present.
With Buffalograss being very tolerant to herbicides and St. Augustine/Centipede type lawns are very sensitive to herbicides, we recommend spot treating with a Glyphosate product such as Roundup QuikPRO. Spot treating will allow you focus your application directly to the targeted weeds and not damaging your grass. Roundup QuickPRO is a non-selective systemic herbicide and will only kill the weeds that are sprayed. It does not stay in the soil so any weeds that are beneath soil, will not be affected. Multiple applications may be needed. For further assistance on what the best herbicides are for treating buffalograss in your region, contact your local Master Gardener at the link below.
