would this product kill duckweeds? I have a problem with duck weeds
The comprehensive video I ever saw on getting rid of weeds, Thank you. I ordering the product today.
Thank you for the information that you are sharing.
Can this weedkiller be used in planting beds that have hostas?
@@debra-jones Technically yes, but it can be risky if ay spray gets on good plants. Check out this page for other options for controlling weeds in beds. www.silvercymbal.com/weed-control-beds
Finally a video that the person is getting to the point explain every detail and not having a diva moment. Thank you!!!
I really appreciate such a kind comment. Thank you!
What happens to the white dead white weeds,, do I pull them out?
@@detekmantilla7700 No you can just leave them after going white they will quickly wither to nothing after.
@@SilverCymbal thank you so much for your reply,,i am so happy i found your videos so helpful,,,i watch them all,,your on point with your info on the promblem!,,,What do I have to spray on my lawn now?
@@detekmantilla7700 Thank you so much
Been using this for two months now. I had a half acre of almost 60% weeds. My kentucky blue grass is finally growing into the bare spots. At first i didnt think it was working. Took over 4 weeks to see weeds finally die. I still have alot of product left. This was inexpensive way. Spent about 150$ on products but way better than 1000+ a year for tru greene that does an half assed job.
Sorry for the late reply, but thank you for for sharing this.
I've watched a ton of videos and this was one of the best ones so far on weed killing. Right to the point, no stupid stuff, and very well explained.
Thank you
Straight to the point, no garbage music ,no BS,good video learned a lot thank you
Amazing video. Thanks for all the info. Will definitely put this to use.
Thank you so much for making videos with good content, step by step, follow up, any mistakes/lessons learned, and final results. I've never very much money to pay lawn companies to come treat my yard, so I'm trying to diy on a budget. I'm just getting started on my yard at our new home and I've always wanted a nice yard. Looking forward to seeing the results! Keeping the videos coming! Average folks like myself really appreciate it.
Excellent video. Clear, to the point, and no unnecessary distractions. 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Love the fact that you did an after shot so many guys miss that part and it’s so satisfying in some ways it’s all I want to see is your results
Clear and to the point, I love it. But I would put a plastic water tank in th back of that Kubota to water that grass, because you put so much effort into it.
Love how you showed us the measurements by teaspoons and gallon.sometimes the labels are way too complicated if you have small property
Thanks, Silver! Your videos are some of the best on many subjects. The Tenacity has been a great help for me and centipede grass in NW Florida.
Thank you! That definitely takes the guessing game out of the factor. I appreciate this and you for sharing this with me.
I have been pulling up my weeds and still have more! Thank you for the wonderful video... I have looked at others and they have been no help at all. Just need to order all of the products, so I can give my poor hands a rest. Thumbs up for sure.
Dude you’ve helped me I’ve watched a few of your videos my lawn is turning the corner this year. It finally looks good
Thats really great to hear and why I make these. Thank you for the feedback and you will see many new videos this summer coming soon.
All your videos are extremely helpful for newbies like me trying to get a beautiful yard!! Thank you, i really appreciate these DIY videos!
I have watched 2 videos so far and I am loving it. Your explanations are perfect for a regular person who doesn't know where to begin! I am very excited to redo my lawn.
I've been looking for directions on how to apply the Tenacity, this video is short simple and right to the point. Thank you so much!!
What to do after spraying tenacity ??? Do I have to remove the dead weeds or it’s okay to leave it in there ?
Best weed treatment video on UA-cam. Direct, and deliberately to the point!
Very kind of you to say, thank you
Thanks for the Tenacity refresher. That’s the easiest and simple instruction I’ve seen
Excellent videos on your channel. It is a real pleasure to see a presenter get right to the point without an overload of theme music and hot air. And great information. I will be trying Tenacity!!
By far the best lawn Care video on UA-cam. Hands down, simple and to the point. Subbed.
Thank you very much for the very nice comment. I really appreciate it.
After watching this I cannot resist going to spray my lawn - even if I don't have one !!! Gotta get a house first !!! Maybe I'll attack my neighbor's lawn in the dead of night !!!
Gonna try this exactly how you broke it down! Ive tried everything, some parts of my lawn look amazing and some parts i cant get right no matter what i try!
Best weed control video I have watched hands down especially with the dye colour application. Good job Mate
very useful once again! can't wait until fall time to core aerate and overseed once the weed period is done!
Can you please explain how that needs to be done ?
Nice property you have there.
I may give this stuff a go.
Thanks!
Thank you kindly. It works very well, if it hadn't been for Tenacity I dont think I could have renovated my yard this way. I tried many times over the years and failed every time.
@@SilverCymbal how long do I have to wait after applying Tenacity before I can re-sead?
Awesome video! Finally straight to the point from someone who makes sense. Thank you for the video!
Thank you for putting this information out, the last 2 yrs have been horrible for crab grass and clover!! Can’t wait to get my paws on this stuff!! Tnx again
Agree completely. Tenacity works fantastic for me in my lawn.
Nice job. Thanks for sharing!!
Thank you for sharing your knowledge in such a clear and concise way. You have a lot of lawn to take care of, but it turned out beautiful! Thanks, again!
This is an amazing way of getting rid of the weeds . In 5 days the leafs were completely white . Thank you so much.
This is the best video ive seen on killing weeds without killing the grass. SUBSCRIBED! And thanks for this video i will definitely try this
Thank you very much for such a nice comment I really appreciate that.
Again, professional video and so informative. Thank you, Sir. I’m ordering now!
I really appreciate it. Thank you.
This is the most useful and informative channel on youtube !! thank you for all your hard work and research
I watched your video two years ago. The results were exactly what you said. I have been buying other products from the same company that you mentioned. Thank you .
I love that extended wand and fan tip on that sprayer. Very nice. I'm looking to upgrade my wand and tip on my sprayer.
BTW, Tenacity is the bomb. I'm doing a renovation this spring and Tenacity is really the only product available designed to stop weeds and let new grass grow.
I think you will have a great experience with it. Without Tenacity my lawn project would have failed it made a huge difference.
@@SilverCymbal It's been fantastic. The lawn has responded very well. I put two applications on, 3 weeks apart. I'm afraid to do it a third time this spring. Some weeds have come up in spots I missed. I'm hoping, after a few more times mowing, that I can use a weed-b-gon application to take care of the few weeds that did make it thru. But, I want the grass to be well established. With the low temperatures we've been having, I don't think heat will be a problem when applying. Thanks again. 👍 Great content.
@@heinzkitzvelvet What to do after spraying tenacity ??? Do I have to remove the dead weeds or it’s okay to leave it in there ?
@@neerajsingh-dd9jh the dead weeds will disappear back into the earth. Unless they are really big weeds. When I did my renovation, I actually had to rototill the yard to get rid of the giant dandelion and crabgrass carcasses. But if it's just small weeds in the grass they will disappear while the grass takes over.
I have to make some comments here: 1). Tenacity is a good product but you probably need to make sure everybody knows it is for use on cool season grasses (TTTF, KBG, Perennial Ryegrass, etc.) DO NOT use this on warm season grasses (such as Bermudagrass) or damage may occur. 2). The use of surfactants and tracker dye is spot on... great info. 3). Nice to see you wearing rubber gloves and eye protection. However, long trousers and water proof footwear (rather than tennis shoes) should be worn. 4). I would also emphasize that folks should read and understand the product label. There is everything in the label a person needs to know to safely apply the product. For example, there may be temperature restrictions on applications or suggestions regarding irrigation before or after applications. 5). Weeds don't cause a poor lawn... they are the result of one. The best weed control is getting and keeping the grass in a healthy, actively growing state. AAMOF, herbicide applications to weak, stressed turf may lead to phytotoxicity.
unfortunately he does not respond to some of the very important questions and I knew about the cool season grasses and tenacity by watching other videos so we have to do our research or reach out to the company.
How do I know what type of grass I have?
Missed the part about not using on warm season grasses. It is still not very hot here yet. I sprayed half of my yard last week? Now I’m a bit nervous. I’m in Louisiana
Just bought and sprayed this today, I will come with follow up in 4 Weekes. Thanks for this video and for all the tips.
Gonna use tenacity for first time next week in utah. Thanks for all good to know videos. Been watching you for several years. Keep it up
Great informative video, thank you. How long should you wait before watering and if you’ve re seeded? Thanks again
People who know what they are doing get right to the point. You know what you're doing. Kudos.
I really appreciate that
I applied this concoction a week ago. And sure enough, this past weekend all the crabgrass started turning a lighter shade of green, most are now starting to get to the white stage. I've seen no harm to my cool season grass. This stuff works. It is pricey, but it doesn't take a lot to make a gallon.
You expanded things perfectly. Cheers from Australia
I went to domyownlawn and bought everything and started using it, along with his other video for the Ultra Black Beauty seed and the Anderson fertilizer starter... going to go by everything he says to do I am so sick of paying lawn care services that do nothing but put cheap seed in my yard with even more weeds! Thank you Silver Cymbal for all the knowledge you share!
Very kind of you to say. I won't steer you wrong, everything I show you I did, used and like. I don't promote stuff that doesn't work and you will see this in the comments with the good results. I appreciate your support and trust.
Thank you for posting.
It is very informative.
Thank you! This information is very valuable. I placed my order today. I cannot wait to tackle those unsightly weeds! I will try to take before and after photos.
Thank you. Just what I needed. I’ll be tackling this tomorrow.
Great video, great info and looking forward to trying Tenacity this season.
One note is that Tenacity has little impact on killing the dreaded Poa Trivialis - but to be honest not much on the market (available to home gamers) that works on Poa Trivialis, besides a shovel or complete lawn renovation.
Great video... Thanks! Questions, is there a time frame you should not water the grass after the application? Also, when can you mow?
Thank you so much! Your video was easy and I loved how I could go back and read the measurements in case I forget as soon as I begin the process. 😳Thank you. God bless! 🙏🏽
Glad it was helpful!
Great video. Out of all the videos on UA-cam about Tenacity yours is the best. Thanks.
Fantastic video!!! Thank you for sharing this information!!!
Thank you for the kind comment and for watching.
Thanks for that. I've been struggling for years with dandelions with mixed luck. I'm going to try tenacity.
You could pick the dandelion and make tea or put it into your salads. Super healthy! Animals know why they eat it.
Pick the flowers to make 🫖 tea
Did it work? Do you still pull the weeds or do they just die back and go away on their own? I really want to try this!
Great video! I stumbled upon your channel only a week ago and have found your videos to be incredibly helpful!!
Got my tenacity this week and I'm getting some Team Mates seed per your video to plant this month. Wish me luck.
Chris fix of the lawn world 👍👍👍
That is a compliment, I like him a lot
Silver Cymbal
Your videos are nice and detailed, just like Chris. I’m going to order all 3 of the bottles and try it out. I have a huge dandelion problem
@@smokeu600 Thank you I really appreciate that a lot. Thanks again
Just started yesterday....I have so much clover that a lazy neighbor shared with me....I'm going out now to tackle some more
tttarms1970
It’s been 3 weeks now since I did mine. True to his word they all turned white and died.
Thanks for another great video sir! I've got a few spring weeds now that I'll use Tenacity to get rid of, but I'm pretty sure that right now is the time for crabgrass pre-emergent too. Any recommendations for a granular pre-emergent? Is that what I need right now or should I spray the crabgrass as it appears?
Great video, very informative with simple and easy instructions. Thank!
Thank you very much for making this video. I thought it was impossible to DIY. You have helped me learn something!
Ty .... finally get the truth and nothing but the truth . Love it
First off thank you very much for the video. I have recently over-seeded my lawn and presently started to see some new grass but the weeds are appearing and outgrowing it at a much faster rate. Would you recommend spraying tenacity now or wait till bee grass grows longer? Many thanks!
Thank you for making this video. I bought the system and will be applying it this week.
Thank you, Glad it was helpful! It's the best and most effective way you can get.
Going to try tenacity this year.
Thanks for the links!
Few questions, apologize in advance if you've already answered in the comments...
1. how long after tenacity application should I wait before cutting the grass?
2. can I apply tenacity to freshly cut weeds/grass?
I don't think we have Tenacity here in Australia but I have used a product called Jolt and it works really well. Aimed at broadleaf weeds it allows the grass below it to get sunlight once the broadleaf weeds are gone.
Where do you buy Jolt from? I'm in oz and haven't seen it before. Also, do you use surfactant or dishwashing liquid? If so, where from as well. Thanks
Jolt is also know as stadium or bow & arrow
Very helpful! I just sprayed tonight and I'm hoping for good results. First time user of Tenacity.
Just subscribed. One of the best lawn videos ever!!!! Great job!!!!!
Make sure to clean the device between each product if you use a syringe to draw liquid from the containers- cross contamination
Thanks so much for making a video with very clear, detailed explanations. You've given me hope that our lawn will look better within the next few weeks as we start killing the weeds, and then later we'll move on to planting more seeds.
I’ve been watching all of the weed killing videos you have well... all explain in a little bit. I went ahead and bought Tenacity along with everything else. We applied it on our grass then a few minutes later I went back on UA-cam to re watch your video and came across the video in which you mentioned using Tenacity in the cool season. 🤦🏻♀️. The problem is I’m in Florida and we are just now working on our yard. So.... the point of my comment is maybe you should’ve mentioned the seasons in which Tenacity could be used in all of your videos. Anyway, I do love your videos and they have encouraged me to work on my lawn. Thank you. Diana.
Well done...What every homeowner needs to know. Not so hard to do either. Thank you.
Love your videos! I’m planning on doing the same thing in the next coming weeks. My yard is full of weeds but also riddled with moss. Would you recommend de-thatching the whole yard to remove moss, and then overseeding followed by the tenacity application? What order would you recommend doing it?
This video is helping with my patience - five days after treating my lawn with Tenacity, it looks no different. I am DYING to go over it again right away - and probably would if not for your guidance! Thank you!!
Did you try the right way? Did it help you?
Nusrat Farooqui Yes, very helpful. It took about two weeks before I started seeing white. Needed to reapply after about four weeks. The dye was a bit hard to see, so I plan to increase to 1 1/2 tsp. per gallon next time.
Thank you, this is helpful! My husband tried Tenacity earlier,.but it dint work, we will follow this ratio including yours. Thankyou again.
Just got some in the mail now waiting on the dye and surfactant then going to the store for a 2 gallon sprayer.
I put this on my yard last fall. Slowly, the Charlie turned white. Then one nice December day I walked outside and noticed it was ALL GONE, as were the other weeds. As near as I could tell, nothing remained but grass. It does not work fast, but it works very, very well. I will touch up a couple of places along the side of the house I missed last year.
Immediately found these on Amazon! My yard is horrible!
It can really help a lot. Made all the difference for me amzn.to/2Oc07FW
Wow! Thank you for the information! How often do you need to re-apply? I have been using the Scotts program every 3 months so far. Thanks.
You won't need to re-apply for any weeds you hit. You will undoubtedly have some new ones that will need to be taken care of but it will drop more and more until you have few to deal with. Tenacity is nothing like the products we all spent $$$ at box stores and really aren't effective. You won't ever see a pro using store type stuff. most are switching to Teancity for the reason that it works so well and is easy to work with.
Great video on Tenacity, much appreciated 👍
Great video SC ,Just order all this products can't wait to start on my lawn. Thanks
Heads up, you "cordless sprayer" review link leads right back to this video.
How long does Tenacity need to stay on plant without rain for it to be effective?
Also, if I want to reseed, how long do I need to wait after applying tenacity to reseed?
Your videos are terrific. Very straightforward, succinct, easy to follow and you have a good voice for it. 👍
Glad you like them!I really appreciate it.
Silver Cymbal Happy to be a new subscriber.
Awesome awesome video! Straight to the point and told me exactly what I needed to know.
Thank you! I’ve had all 3 of those products in my garage since last summer but was too scared to use it.
Thank you glad it helped. Thanks for watching.
how much is this ??
Tere Ch all 3 products will cost roughly $90.00 depending on where you get it but like in the description of the video it’s about the cheapest place to purchase it
This product works miracles. Use it only when it's below 80 degree and above 60 degree weather on selected grass types such as Cool Season Grasses only. It can be applied in the Summer at night when it gets below 80 degrees. After several hours water in the next morning and watch those weeds die. I love it because it keeps that Nasty Bermuda Grass off my Kentucky Bluegrass Lawn Real Good 😉
Wait....what? I am looking for something to kill crabgrass in my bermuda lawn...are you saying this will kill my grass?
@@pamelahartman4952 Yes it can kill your grass if you don't follow the instructions on the label. Many weed killers should be applied when the temperature outside is below 80 degrees.
Thank you
Does it need to be watered after applying?? He said he had no water in that area. I sprayed last Thursday, has not rained yet either.
Trying this out today. I've paid lawn care companies to fertilize and weed and I still feel like my crab grass is spreading. It is terrible! Can't wait to see the results from this product!!
I agree with the comments before me, I find all your content is very easy to follow and informative. Thank you for your time and knowledge.
What to do after spraying tenacity ??? Do I have to remove the dead weeds or it’s okay to leave it in there ?
A little over a year later, I'm eating my weeds. Great salads to go with my meals. Chickweed is awesome!
So true. Big box weed products don't kill the tough weeds.
Thank you.
Someone with a Northern Lawn.
Thank you again for making these very informative to the point videos. I recently applied your ”Beat the Heat” formula and our lawn is doing well. Today, I applied this cocktail, now waiting for the results. Cheers!
Great to hear! Thank you
Great video! I’m just stating on my lawn journey. What happens to the weeds once you spray the tenacity, surfactant and dye solution? Does it turn white and “disappear” or do you have to pull them out? Do you reseed afterwards?
The weeds gonna start drying after 7-10 n completely dried out to roots in almost four weeks.. you can pull out the remains(it becomes like 10% of the weed)..if u have too much weed u can reseed ,if its only here n there then u don’t need to reseed..
Thanks for this. Are there any temperature restrictions with Tenacity? It’s summer in Northwest Florida and temps are in the 90s. Most other weed killers like atrazine, require lower temps to avoid killing the grass.
We didn't get the leaves up last year before it snowed and then didn't see the ground again all winter, so my lawn is a trainwreck right now - and this is after it's been slowly getting worse year by year since I've been slacking. Gonna try your method to get it looking nice again.
Just purchased everything. Thanks!
Thanks for the video, very informative. Question, for this area, how long before you seeded the patches that had the dead weeds? Did you use starter fertilizer? Thanks !
Yes, please. How long after did you seed?
What to do after spraying tenacity ??? Do I have to remove the dead weeds or it’s okay to leave it in there ?
Just enjoyed spraying your Tenacity method onto my lawn and hoping it kills a lot of weeds. If applied today and then it rained few hours later, will it wash off? It was a "True Pleasure" to see all the Blue. Thanks for the great video, fingers crossed. Can you direct me to which video to watch to reseed successfully in June - located in Ohio.
what was the result?
Great video!!
Simple and precise information with short intro.
Good luck.
