    Q
    Can SpeedZone Lawn Weed Killer Concentrate be used on St Augustine grass?
    I have a section of yard that is a mix of Bermuda and St Augustine. I'd like to find a weed control that can be used on both. Can Speedzone be applied in this situation? Thanks for your time
    A

    Speedzone Lawn and Weed Killer is not labeled for use on St. Augustine and most likely would cause damage.  You may want to consider Speedzone Southern instead, which is labeled for use on both St. Augustine and Bermuda grasses.

    Q
    Is there a similar product to Speedzone?
    I live in NJ, unfortunately Speed Zone is not prohibited in our state. What is another comparable product , as I like all the active ingredients and there percentages that are in Speed Zone.
    A

    Depending on the weeds you are targeting, you could use Fertilome Weed Free Zone for broadleaf weeds in NJ on most established turfgrasses. Weed Free Zone controls a wide range of broadleaf weeds and also works well in cooler temperatures; plus, it comes in several sizes. You also may want to consider Dismiss Herbicide for broadleaf weeds. Dismiss has almost no volatility and very low use rates, and it also targets sedges.

    Q
    Should I use Speedzone Southern or Speedzone Red?
    I am going to be using this on my bermuda lawn only. It is mostly common bermuda but does have some spots of hybrid bermuda as well where it has been sodded. Is one better than the other for my grasses? I live in Oklahoma and am not sure if I should use the southern for that reason.

    Q
    Does SpeedZone kill lesser celandine?
    A

    SpeedZone Lawn Weed Killer Concentrate  is not labeled to treat Lesser Celadine. Herbicides which contain the active ingredient glyphosate, such as Round Up, are effective in controlling (but not necessarily eradicating) lesser celandine. Applications should be made in late winter or early spring when leaves are visible, but prior to full flowering, and when temperatures are above 40°F. Glyphosate will impact other vegetation so try to target only the celandine. It may take 1-2 weeks before the full effects of the treatment are visible.

    Q
    Will Speedzone kill rescuegrass in bermuda?
    A

    SpeedZone Lawn Weed Killer Concentrate is not labeled to treat rescuegrass.

    Unfortunately, there is nothing labeled to treat rescuegrass post emergently in your Bermudagrass.  For post emergent control, you would need to spot treat with a non-selective like Roundup QuikPro and reseed/sod.  You can use a pre-emergent labeled for rescuegrass to help prevent it from coming up the following season.  You would apply it in the spring and the fall and it will prevent the rescuegrass and other weeds from germinating and coming up.

    Q
    Can you spray Speedzone on monkey grass to eliminate wild violets which are mixed in?
    A

    The product label for SpeedZone Lawn Weed Killer Concentrate does not list whether it will harm liriope, monkey grass, or mondo grass. These grasses are generally very hardy and only killed with non-selective herbicides such as glyphosate.  We would recommend testing a small area first to be sure.

  • Asked by April from Bend, Or
    05/30/2019
    Q
    Is SpeedZone safe for pollinators?
    A

    Speedzone is an herbicide and not an insecticide. If you were to spray flowering plants with Speedzone, then they will die from the herbicide and, therefore, would not cause long-term effects on pollinators in the area. We do not recommend spraying this or other herbicides in a way that would contact pollinators directly or areas such as directly around bee hives.
