Best Liquid Weed Killer
For the lawn. Lawn is mixed grass, I sprayed ortho weed b gone max in the fall and need to spray again - not sure if I was too impressed with its effectiveness. I'm fixing the previous homeowners mess and hope to knock them out with this application so I can get the grass back to normal and let it keep the weeds at bay...
What have y'all had the best kill rates with? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
Bumping because I'm kind of curious too. My yard looks like crap covered with weeds and clovers.
|
Goooh, are they mostly broadleaf, parallel vein or sedge weeds?
|
Amine 2-4D is a broadleaf killer. I mix it with round up ultra to kill just about everything. If i remember correctly its like 4 oz round up and 3 oz 2-4D to the gallon.

What kind of grass do you have?
Bermuda, Empire Zoysia, St. Augustine... Find something that kills everything but that. I have Bermuda so I use 2-4-D |

There's plenty out there on the market but for me the good ole 2-4D works... Whether its pasture or yard.....
|
2-4d specifically attacks broad leaf plants

Go to your local Helena chemical distributor and get honcho instead of roundup. Same thing but cheaper

Good tips guys, I researched 2-4D and didn't know until now that it was the main ingredient in most lawn weed killers. I'll be going with a liquid that has a nice shot of 2-4d in it.
Once they are down, it's preventative from there. Gotta keep the grass healthy to chime those suckers out! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
The trick to weed n feed is to put it out early in the morning when the dew is heavy. This way the poisone sticks to the leaves.

What kills Virginia Buttonweed and will leave the St Augustine alone?
Never had this stuff before Rita. |
you can treat whole yrd with liquid 2-4d but beware that it will kill shrubs and trees if wind catches it or it gets on roots..... your best bet is Scotts weed and feed applied right now and then do it again in about a month. Scotts will kill the biggest part of your weeds and also fertlize grass so it will get healthy and choke out weeds but you will need to fertilize with triple 13 or triple 16 this summer to help it get healthier.
