    Q
    How do I kill Poa Annua in Centipede grass?
    A

    We would recommend Atrazine to kill poa annua in centipede turgrass.  You will use 1.1 pint sper 4 gallons of water per 2,000 sq. ft. You should also use a pre-emergent such as Prodiamine in late Summer or Fall to prevent this weed from germinating going forward. Please refer to the product label for complete application instructions.

    Q
    Can I use atrazine, 2-4D, and Dicamba at the same time on my pre-spring St. Augustine?
    I have henbit, crabgrass, and spurge (a whole lot of all of them); and my St. Augustine is not perfectly healthy right now. I want to get ahead of the weeds, but I don't want to harm my grass, which is still hibernating. I intend to give the grass some good fertilizer, acidify the soil, and get some iron on it as soon as it wakes up, but when it wakes up, the crabgrass and spurge will happily join the already overflowing henbit and choke my St. Augustine to death.
    A

    Since you mentioned that your St. Augustine grass is not perfectly healthy right now, we are hesitant to recommend that you apply anything as you may cause more harm to your lawn than good.  Herbicide product labels recommend applying products only to healthy lawns, and knowing that St Augustine grass is a sensitive grass we would advise that you contact a local landscaping company or master gardener in your area for the best advice on how to treat while the lawn is not healthy.

We recommend contacting your local department of agriculture to get recommendations that local farmers use for weed and grass control in crops. Once they give you a product name or ingredient, give us a call and we would be more than happy to see if we carry it or can get it for you. 1-866-581-7378.
