I have a steam cleaner that puts out over 210° I'm going to use that to kill weeds I've had it with weed killers that don't work
The background music is getting on my last nerve. Couldn't finish this one. Sorry.
Me either. Also, the fact he could not just show us his lawn. I guess he has to be in every shot
Hahahaha
Thank you so much. I am a single mom trying to take care of my lawn. This info is very helpful😊
with them sprays, tank and hose, iI highly recommend wearing a breather. you cannot visually see it, but its airborne in molecules
Agree. If you can smell it you are breathing it into your lungs. I used to never bother with a mask or breather. Always wore gloves, sunglasses, long pants and boots. But I am even more cautious these days and usually wear a mask unless it's just a quick spot spray. The whole glphosate cancer thing is worth noting.
If you're getting the stuff all over the place, all over your body, all over your clothes.... good bet you're doing something seriously wrong. Time to rethink you're methods. At the levels home owners use this stuff, reasonable contact is not going to be an issue. The issues are going to surround farmers who use hundreds or thousands of gallons of herbicides.
Don't worry about it, you'll be fine. PPE is not necessary.
I've sprayed thousand of gallons a breather is not necessary your not spraying the air. Try wearing a breather in 90 degrees spraying 30 houses a day

Whenever I cut my grass I have the Grass Daddy theme song going through my head.
We do get buffalo grass here in Houston. Best solution I found is just to get a shovel and dig it up. Pops right out.
See he's a liar i see one dandelion .😁
Returning to let you know this is a great video. Very educational and easy to apply to lawn care. The few weeds I had your Step 1 and 2 really helped. Do have a video of seeding and the best seeds to use for the area homeowners live in. I'm in Milwaukee, Wisconsin and with fall approaching what is best. Thank again for this great video. GOD BLESS.
Check out my lawn renovation playlist. I go over it all. If you are overseeding you would just skip the killing the lawn steps ;)
@@GrassDaddy thank you
Backpack sprayers, I know what you can do, send me one or two, lol. Thanks, good stuff man!
Same here please send one that would use one too.
go for organic Daddy .
Yes I agree! I wish these products were banned.
No wonder the cancer rates are through the roof in this country but there are a lot of nice looking lawns
Very scientific observation
And the bees, birds, wildlife ☮️
Great advice telling folks to avoid the granular stuff; it requires too much luck. I use Speed Zone and it's an absolute beast of a herbicide even in cooler weather. The initial cost is higher, but it's a whole lot cheaper in the long run because it has 4 killing actions and it's higher in potency, therefore requiring less applications. Also, I've seen a video showing that growth regulator has worked to suppress that Poa stuff.
Yes I am waiting for the growth regulator to come in and try it out ;-)
@@GrassDaddy Which product did you purchase and where did you get it? Thanks
You and your neighbors are in some kind of grass competition. So many beautiful lawns in one area
This is so confusing! In the beginning you trashed using spot-sprayer and hose-in sprayer and recommended using a backpack sprayer. Yet, in the your steps you never used the backpack sprayer, rather you used the the hose-in and spot testament
Quick Tip: Do not use any of those products on your southern lawns, unless it is your intention to kill the grass as well. This is cool season only. Hope this helps.
Thanks! It's important to read the label. There are also southern lawn versions of a lot of those.
webeducation that’s a very good point
Great advice Grass Daddy. I do have a question. I have a maple tree in my front yard and every spring I have patches of winter kill under it. I reseed it each but the winter kill keeps repeating. Any advice?
Great video. There is a lot that looks great with your lawn. At first I aimed for perfection, now i aim for "good".
Too much talk and not enough how to kill weeds in a lawn
Lazy neighbor sprayed RoundUp on a few of his weeds last week. I could taste and smell it a whole yard away. I haven't seen my Anna's hummingbirds since then. Before that, they visited my feeders several times per day. My perfect fantasy neighborhood would ban all herbicides. Weed & Feed has shared ingredients with Agent Orange used heavily in Vietnam War. Clover killer ingredient Dicamba needs to be perfectly applied at perfect temp and time of day. It's volitile and can lift off the sprayed area and travel a long way, then settle. All these poisons affect sex hormones in animals and humans by increasing estrogen and decreasing testosterone.
3:13 huge spray, no control.... I hope it is better in the bathroom....
Ever had to deal with dallisgrass?
Giveaway for backpack sprayers? Haha jk man
Here’s what I use to treat lawns on my route.

333 oz of colonize
333 oz of micro sync
40 oz chemstick
Urea-0.015 oz per gallon
Threesome-0.664 oz per gallon
Boulder-0.1 oz per gallon
Colonize-1.332 oz per gallon
Mirco Sync-1.332 oz per gallon
Chem stick-0.16 oz per gallon
I used spectracide to kill weeds two times spectracide acted like a fertilizer it look like the weeds were growing larger and the battery in the sprayer after only using it two times and it still doesn't work even after replacing it with new batteries it still doesn't work luckily I could bring it back to Lowe's then the company said that they were going to send me a check to compensate for all the problems I'm having I'm still waiting almost a month the checks in the mail right
You can give the backpacks away after your product review! I’ll take one off of your hands!😬
Awesome video thanks! I don't know anything about weed control so this helped a lot. And the sound effects were really good too.
If you use weed and feed granular you want to apply it when the grass is wet so it will stick to the weed leaf.
Yes but I've found it doesn't work nearly as good.
@@GrassDaddy You are right!
Very good in depth video! However, I feel like Tenacity should have gotten more love because that stuff just works. It is by far the best weed killer I've ever used especially when considering a blanket spray. I follow the exact app rate on the label and never have any issues with it hurting my TTTF. It can be used mostly anytime, but also very effective when overseeding in the fall. I've been using it for 3+ years and highly recommend it with a pump or backpack sprayer.
There has been a trend for using Tenacity for everything but I feel it's best to use it just for the weeds the others can't. There is a limit to how much you should apply to your lawn each year.
@@GrassDaddy agreed. I'd recommend others not using it in the summer as it can really stress the lawn out during the heat. My favorite time to use it is in the fall especially during a reseed.
what will kill Purple Dead Nettle and creeping Charly in my flower bed and in my lawn and the lawn is gone
You don't know what to do with your backpack sprayers? Giveaways, that's how. You can drive traffic and views and build your brand that way and it helps the community.
I'm not sure I can ship them used
Good video, if you don’t know what to do with your sprayers? I need one
why are all lawn videos not concise? Anything you watch - too much babbling.
First time home onwer here, I started to watch your videos in March when my lawn was all dead and compacted, and now I have a full green lawn and even made a mulch tree ring like yours this week
Awesome!!
Thank you for sharing your knowledge! You have such a beautiful lawn! No weeds!
I have weeds everywhere! Help me please!! Thank you.
please which of the chemicals is good for killing nutsadge?
I used Nagate 37Wg this spring on my Bermuda.. Absolutely works magic on killing POA Annua in about 10 days.
Good information. I'm going to be try some of the Round-Up crabgrass destroyer product if I see any Nimblewill peeking it's ugly head out again. Previously the only way I knew to kill Nimblewill w/o killing be the whole lawn was Tenacity, so the Round-Up crabgrass destroyer is a game changer, if it works. JohnG
I can surely use a backpack sprayer, let me know if you can spare one.
Hey GD, i use Tenacity with my backpack sprayer for spot spraying..the syringe shows what amount to use with however many gallons of water your mixing it with. That’s ok right? Or you’re saying to use less that?
great video! I have such a large lawn bc of cost I have learned to lived with most weeds. I want to know how to get rid of burweed....
You want to apply pre-emergent in the fall to prevent it for the next year. For this year look for Weed B Gon Weed Killer for Lawns ;-)
Grass Daddy thanks!
Baking soda directly on weeds works great.
Surfactants!! Must add surfactant for success against clover!!
I couldn't handle the background music.
I picked up tenacity to deal with my poa and it definitely stressed my lawn on both applications with the bottle rate. Was and is still painful to see a it's still recovering. Seeded from scratch last fall with Scott's sun and share mix. Will have to search for any input on how to minimize this.
I would space out the applications more, and perhaps apply at a lighter rate. Also be sure to water the lawn thoroughly now that it's stressed.
after I spray for 3 weeks . when do I sow the grass seed ( KY BLUE)
my roundup sprayer won,t spray more than 12 inches
I have a lot of Quackgrass in my yard. What would be the best way to get rid of it. Do I have to kill the whole yard? If so should I do it in the fall? Thank you for any help. FYI I'm in NYS.
Yes - quackgrass here. Will this stuff kill it?
Grass daddy is the man! He inspired me to make a few videos myself. Keep up the good work.
Yessss!
If I kill all the weeds,I’ll have no lawn at all, I have wooded lots all around me and the weeds are impossible to control,I have tried everything over the last 30 years. I fought the weeds and the weeds won. Central Florida is tough
just overseed the heck out of it.... that way you will have more grass than weeds
I am going to try it on the grass in the flowers bed
I love the music scares away the weedy ones
Do you think this Roundup would be ok to spray onto a patch of invasive Bermuda grass in my centipede lawn?
I don't think so but it's worth trying
What weed killer ( mainly daisies ) that you can put down when you have small areas around the lawn which have been newly seeded ? I've literally been forking out daisies for a week :-) thanks
The only one I know of is tenacity. Otherwise you have to wait for 3-4 mowings before spraying. However usually the new lawn will thicken over time so if you wait a bit and then kill it should fill in any gaps.
The Bayer Advance did nothing to weeds. Not even clover.
Damn man, don't take us around the world.
I'm not using Roundup products.
Why?
That's awesome! I don't use herbicides at all. Don't people realize weeds can be hand-pulled or that clover is beneficial to bees?
I love your channel, I live in Pawtucket R.I so I find that following what you do works for me because we live in the same area. You've been extremely helpful. Thanks Grass Daddy
Thanks for watching!!
I have a serious question. With as much herbicides as these lawn guys put on their yards and seeing their kids playing on it, is that safe for humans?
If you are worried about it and don't mind a bit more work, use a herbicide that uses chelated iron. In certain provinces in Canada dicamba is banned. It doesn't kill as much, but kills most broadleaf plants. They overdose on the iron. It doesn't kill dandelions to the root, but it will kill the top and the grass can outgrow it and crowd it out. So I've used Ortho Weed B Gon with iron or Fiesta weed control.
After one year of fogging the lawn and then spot spraying, I am down to picking out the weeds by hand because I have reduced the amount so much. I do have the most weed free and best looking lawn in the neighborhood. Humic acid is safe as well. Soap as a surfactant.
I use "put and play" Scotts fertilizer as well so you can walk on it right after although I water it in.
If I could get Tenacity, I would use it once and then use the iron from then on. I can get Killex which would kill everything, but I figured I would try to recondition the soil to grow grass better and it worked. Now people don't even want to walk on it.
I like your videos but my wife hates ths constant little tune you have playing in the background. So I cant cast it while she is in the room. She hates the tune...
Hahahahaha
I Love Sublime !!!
just applied the Tenacity/Speedzone cocktail! wow! Total devastation to those weeds
Both of those are great products
are you sure you using round up because is cause cancer due to glyphosate ( lymphoid malignancies )
Round up is a brand that has many products, you are thinking of glyphosate which will kill your grass
Liquid gypsum is soap???
What is best for Bermuda grass?
I'd highly recommend the battery operated sprayer. Pumping is a PITA.
Yes I have 2 ;-) But I'm trying to test out all of them.
Great video. However, I could do without the background music.
I turned on closed captioning and then mute for that reason.
All I want to kill is the weed with stickers on them lol dam things get dragged inside all the time. idk what they are even called
Buy a $40 tool called a weed hound. It pulls the weed out by the root then let's you fire it away like a gun. It's actually fun and addicting. My neighbor keeps promising to bring mine back to me. He likes the gun part when he's stressed out.
Wow your grass is so think and green. Thanks for the informative video!
What I saw was empty dirt in a lot of places.
Crossbow for Wild Violets
I wish that you would reply to your followers, they ask the same question that I would.
I try to but I get so many comments now I can't keep up :)
Great video I really like it
Hey I recently started cutting my neighbors grass because she was facing some issues anyway I'm finding my lawn has a surge in weeds. My neighbor doesn't treat the lawn at all and is well....infested with every kind of weed you could imagine. Am I bringing them over into my lawn. I bag all the time and usually spot treat for weeds. I have not used a pre emergent.
You can give away some backpack sprayers
I don't know that I could ship them used.
Hey GD !
Do you ever use weed and feed from Scott ?
no for reasons mentioned in the video. I use liquid weed killers.
Good video...I have a question for you GD, I have Bermuda 419 and starting to see weeds. What can I use to kill the weeds and not the grass? Thanks for any response.
Depends on the weeds. You need to identify the weeds first, and then get the right chemicals. Clover, crabgrass and chickweed are probably the ones you have. You'll most likely need at least two products. Buy a 2 gallon pump sprayer and get speedzone and bioadvanced all in one concentrate with crabgrass killer. Combine in sprayer with a little dishsoap and spot spray after the sun goes down and no rain in the forecast for 72 hours
Same concepts apply! Just goto your local hardware store and look for products that say for southern lawns. There are a few brands that have some. First step would be to find the one that has the most weeds it can kill at a time (roundup for southern lawns or weed be gone for southern lawns, etc)
Roundup killed my grass and put big holes in my grass I do not recommend round up period
Roundup is labeled to kill grass. Roundup for lawns is labeled to kill weeds and not grass. Unfortunately they named them so similar it's easy to get the wrong type.
@@GrassDaddy oh it was probably my fault because this last year was my first year doing grass and it was ugly🤦🏽♀️😂
@@pamelastarks8487 yeah it's an easy mistake I've been saying since the day I saw the new product it was gonna cause confusion!
@@GrassDaddy I thatch my grass last fall and it seems like it won’t grow I live in Michigan. Will it grow
Help
After I kill all the weeds, when can I apply my lawn fertilizer??
You can apply the fertilizer anytime. Many people will actually fertilize and then spray weeds a week or two later because the weeds will start to grow faster from the fertilizer, which makes the weed killer work better.
Use Mesotrione, it's cheaper.
Where can I purchase it?
How tf did he do that 0:57
Point is for it to go to roots for grain. As far as liquid mix it with dish soap liie dawn it will help weed killer to stick to plantlet it sit for 24hrs. But will burn lawn if more then 90 degrees, so buy a preventer apply jan or feb when it germinates.
Nice logical video
Hello Grass Daddy, I find your vids incredibly easy to understand. What steps would you recommend before turfing a lawn? I have 90% weeds in my and looking forward to laying new turf in the next few months - how should I go about killing the existing lawn full of weeds including very large area of nutsedge. Thank you
The hoodies are 🔥
If you have St Augustine grass, do not use Weed-Be-Gone or Weed Stop unless they say "FOR ST AUGUSTINE YARDS". Their general products have 2,4-D in them, and that will either stress or kill the grass. Believe me, I found out the hard way.
Great video!
my lawn is full of nutsedge and crabgrass. I used the round up spot product and it has been 7 days but its not working. Can you recommend me a solution that would kill both of these? I'm curious about tenecity. how does it work?
I love your content. I very much dislike the whistling "music".
Thanks for this! I did a blanket spray and was pretty disappointed with the initial results, but with your three phase assault, I'm feeling more confident.
I got the RoundUp Brown container weed killer and preventer for up to 4 months, but I do not spray like you, I pretty much soak the thing LOL.
I have tons of different weeds. I am not seeing pictures of on your website and I am having a hard time figuring out what they are.
weeds are nothing, simple triple or speed zone clears that up with maybe some sticker mixed in. The poa annua is always the problem and keeping that junk out of cool season favorable grass has never been cured in the industry.
All you need is a product called 24D apply one time a year. This guy must be getting sponsored from all these companies.
Id love one of your backpack sprayers if you have too many laying around.
The weed b gon for clover and ground ivy ( creeping Charlie) works great. Expensive as all get out, but does work. I found first in spring here in ohio puts a stop to all of those up front. Ivy thats Establish took me about 3 treatments. Follow the instructions on time intervals for spraying. I did burn the grass the first year. Luckily it came right back from it.
Any idea if the tips you recommend will fit and work with the Harbor Freight sprayer you mentioned (I already own that). Also, for spraying bifenthrin, what tip would you recommend?? Already ran through my favorite tip that came with the sprayer on my 2nd app of bifen. How long do those tips last?
Thanks you. Finally something that I could fully understand..
1 gallon of vinegar, a whole container of epson salt, 1 table spoon of dish washing soap.
Honestly man thanks! I was having so much trouble finding info on how to kill these stupid Foxtails before they effect my dog!
First timer here! Should I cut the grass and weed first before starting step 1? My weeds are long
great video going to try the weed be gone concentrate! have a lot of yellow nutsedge! ty. by the way have you ever used speed zone ? seen some stuff on that but never used it. I'm subscribed hopeing for a nicer lawn.
