The term "control" is used, does this mean that Gordons 170 will or will not kill bermuda. Please specify. Does this product kill Bermuda, or control it?
Gordons Ornamec 170 Grass Herbicide is pnly labeled to control/suppress bermuda in fescue but may not fully kill it completely. Bermuda is very difficult to eliminate completely due to how quickly and wide spread the roots will develop. It will take repeat applications and possible 1-2 growing seasons to eliminate.
Applicaitons should be made is spring or fall and after green up. Repeat applications at 14 to 21 day intervals should regrowth occur. Take precautions during summer months (July & August) when applying to tall fescue.
