[How to KILL WEEDS] in Your Lawn WITHOUT KILLING the GRASS

How to kill weeds in your lawn without killing the grass is a question commonly asked by lawn care enthusiasts. Weed control can be a full time job and really takes the fun out of your lawn care program. The weed control that I like best doesn't involve a weed spray or chemical like spectracide, roundup or image weed killer. The best long term weed control is to grow a healthy lawn and mow it regularly at the correct height for your grass type. This creates a natural weed control because the tight turf creates a situation where weeds have trouble competing with the lawn for the resources they need to grow.
The best way to immediately get rid of weeds without killing the grass in your lawn is to simply pull the weeds manually. That said, chemicals can help initially kill broadleaf weeds and other lawn problems like crabgrass.
Options for chemical weed control fall into 2 categories for application; liquid or granular. Both types of weed control products have their pros and cons. Liquid weed control products like Image weed killer or roundup work very quickly to kill weeds. The downside is that they are also much more likely to damage or even kill the grass which is what we don't want. I wouldn't use roundup on weeds within your lawn because it's a very powerful herbicide which WILL damage any grass near the weed being sprayed. Keep roundup for ornamental beds weeds growing in places like your sidewalk. Image weed killer works great for tough weeds like nutsedge but even it is hard on the nearby grass.
Granular products like Spectracide weed control work slower than the liquid versions but it is also much safer for the lawn. When it comes to herbicides you want to use as little as necessary to kill the weeds and nothing else. Granular weed control like Spectracide also contains Dithiopyr which is a pre-emergent to prevent new weeds from growing back once they're gone. Remember all we're using Spectracide for is to buy us time to grow a healthy lawn.

It doesn't work and it's expensive. Years ago it did, but they keep weakening the fertilizer and weakening the weed killer. And so you have to use twice as much but not all at once or it'll kill the grass

    Ron your videos are super informative. I'm in Georgia with about 9ksqft of Bermuda. About a month ago, I treat my completely dormant Bermuda with Prodamine and Image. Used a sprayer, followed your recommendations. ** Now , the thing is, there was Poa already hanging out in my lawn...so I'm sure the Prodamine soaked in but that stubborn grown tall PoAnna, just "ate it" ( ate that Image-I feel like, smh)** So last week I cut my lawn to down about 1 inch. I have thatch issues too, but that's another story ( smh)...I "Chopped them Po-Heads, right off!" But, guess what - they're back....waving Hi to me every time I step outside. I've read that Negate is a good herbicide for Po. I purchased the 1.5 oz bottle. I mixed it following the instructions from the manufacturer (Poored entire bottle into gallon of water for base. And I am set to mix 3 ounces of that per gallon per 1k..Cool) Now, my grass is still in dormant mode on many sections, except for Po-- he's fully grown and alive. There are some green bermuda patches here and there n my lawn... My question, should I wait until after full green up before hitting Po with that heavy Negate spot treatment and just keep on cutting lawn down to 1" every week? Or should I just hit the Po now even in this transition, spring up?

The lawn was green but sick. There was no potash whatever. I put 0-0-60 down. Spent countless hours pulling Dandelions, and used Weed be Gone . Spiked airated like crazy. Limed like crazy as the PH was like 4. We applied Fleet Farm 27-7-7 granulated fertilizer with iron. I still take soil tests every other year. I try not to use pesticide. I've found Tenacity for spot weeding. I have the best lawn in town, at least that's what I've been told. Weeds don't like a thick healthy lawn.

Thanks for sharing your knowledge and I’m going to do my best to follow it so my turf can look as pretty as my flowers and shrubs. New sub indeed!!!!

Will it damage immature bermuda?

  • @RonHenry

    @RonHenry

    4 жыл бұрын

    Heya Julian. Given that you've recently made the investment in planting new Bermuda, I'd do my best to keep herbicides off the turf. Once the new grass is fully established, you can use Spectracide but until then, I'd just weed manually. I know it's a huge pain, but it's the safest option for the turf. It's what I did for my lawn when I overseeded. Assuming you don't already have one, grab one of those weeding tools from your local Home Depot or on Amazon: amzn.to/3fdeCqG Thanks so much for the kind words about the channel.

    Hi Mgz_ Once you kill the weeds, just start mowing your lawn regularly. That will get rid of the dead weeds and also stimulate new growth in the grass. If you'd like a good starter fertilizer for a recovering lawn, this is a great choice: golfcourselawn.store/products/12-12-12-starter-fertilizer-with-3-iron-and-bio-nite™-granular-lawn-fertilizer After the fertilizer application, just mow, mow and mow some more.

I'm in Toronto, Ontario, Canada and the weeds were out in force this year. I like the information you provided and for full on lawn care and tackling the weeds, I'm going to try the third product you recommended. I'll see if I can get it from Home Depot first and if not, then Amazon. I was thinking to apply it in the spring; which the time they recommend putting down fertilizer. We do have fertilizer that is laid in the fall so to nourish the lawn through the winter and then early spring we fertilize again. So, what do you think? Thanks again and take care.

    Hi Stacey. You should hopefully be able to find the products shown at your local Home Depot. They're fairly common. Something else you may want to consider is pre-emergent. It's a special herbicide that's applied twice per year (spring and fall) that prevents the weeds from germinating in the first place. I have a video here that talks about different options and how to use it. kzread.info/dash/bejne/omWnw9yldbuniMY.html Hope this helps. Really appreciate you watching.

  • @RonHenry

    @RonHenry

    4 жыл бұрын

    Heya Ryan. I would really wait the 10 weeks on the grass seed. Depending on which type of grass seed you're putting down it probably represents several hundred dollars. If you spread it before the 10 weeks is up, you'll likely get some germination but not as good as if you'd waited. If you want to still give it a go, I'd recommend doing a really good aeration of the lawn prior to spreading the seed. This will damage the pre-emergent barrier making it less effective against preventing germination. Does that make sense?

  • @spchief

    @spchief

    That does make sense. I bought some Arden 15 seeds that I hoped to plant this year but I think 10 weeks probably takes me completely out of season for growing new grass. Is there anything that you recommend that I can do in the meantime that might be helpful for growing new grass using seed next year?

So do a soil test assuming you haven't as yet and make the amendments to get the soil into primo shape. www.mysoiltesting.com/shop?aff=11 Again, you *can* overseed this year but I'd be sure to aerate heavily before doing so in order to make the pre emergent less effective. 👍😎

    Thanks for this informational video! It is appreciated! Btw. Beautiful lawn!! P.S. I have an huge area on my driveway in the backyard that has been taken over by all different types of weeds (even those prickly ones) after the tree next door at a rental until has been cut down last year. This year the weeds have spread almost the entire width and I am about to use a weed puller and dig them up completely. I was gonna use a weed killer that last up to a year, but I don't want birds and squirrels to become sick and die from coming in contact with the area, so I was thinking of going the homemade vinegar and soap method and then pin down a heavy duty landscape weed barrier to hopefully help keep them from regrowing. Any tips at how to kill these off permanently? Or do you think because the tree stump is still there, the weeds will just continue to return every season?

    Heya Bailey. It will last about 1 week assuming that your turf is healthy. I hate that particular side effect of Image but the product really does work great against nutsedge. The big thing is to not over apply the product. Literally all you need is one pass over the nutsedge. No need to soak the area. Using a liquid fertilizer will probably help the lawn recover a bit faster. Granular takes longer to break down so by the time it starts working your turf will like have recovered anyways. A good liquid option is this: amzn.to/2WRaPrI It's very similar to Brandt Supreme Green product I apply in this video: kzread.info/dash/bejne/p5mYxY-vXc_Ukrw.html Let me know if I can help with anything else! 😎👍

    Hi Bryan. I don’t believe it’s for sale in Texas. Are you trying to use it as a pre-emergent or to kill existing weeds? If existing weeds, which ones? Once I know what you’re trying to do, I can give you some other options.

    While it’s not normal for sure, there are times I would recommend using RoundUp on weeds in a lawn. Especially Bermuda. Bermuda will self heal so quickly that for light invasions of notoriously nasty weeds, ie. Dallisgrass, a spot of round up painted onto a weed (rather than sprayed) is far safer and much less expensive than specialty selective herbicides or resorting to off-label use of something like MSMA. 2-3 weeks and what little damage you do to the Bermuda should be all healed up!

    You'd think that Brian But I watched my neighbor (not Alex) have dead spots of Bermuda that lasted the entire growing season from using RoundUp. Granted he did spray it onto the weeds but it just goes to show that Bermuda doesn't always recover quickly depending on what you hit it with.

    Ron Henry maybe there was a little something more than just straight glyphosate in that spray then. I keep generic, plain glyphosate around just for this purpose. No long lasting spots for me.

    Getting on a scheduled pre emergent plan will greatly improve weed control throughout the growing season. Which in turn will allow less use of damaging herbicides. Prodiamine and dimension are my weapons of choice

    Both excellent choices Mike. I mainly highlight the Spectracide because it's a product that most home owners can afford and can get great results with. I do agree though that Prodamine and Dimension are best in class. They can be pricey though. 🤑🤓

    Sounds like you may have either used a herbicide that's not compatible with your grass type or overapplied. Slight yellowing can happen but the entire lawn should discolor from it. At any rate, the lawn will recover with time. It's grass. It'll bounce back. 😎

    I am attempting to rid flat purslane from an established Bermuda grass lawn. I am weed wacking close to ground surface and then will add patch seed with mulch. There are several vegetable gardens and would not like to cancel them because of chemical weed killers. If this does not work, I will try cider vinegar.
