  • The best way to have a weed free lawn is to prevent weeds from growing in the first place. In this video we’ll talk about options for keeping weeds out of your cool and warm season lawn using pre-emergent.
    Grasses discussed are Kentucky Bluegrass, Rye, Fescue, Bermuda, Zoysia, St. Augustine and more.
    We’ll start with basic granular options and then move into liquid blends for warm season grass to kill and prevent tough-to-kill weeds like poa annua. (Annual Bluegrass)

Could you help me out by just confirming which one or letting me know if there's not much difference? Thanks again!

    • @RonHenry

    Hey Ron, hopefully you see this. I used princep, image, and prodiamine and found my tank is full of foam and froth. Any tips on how to mitigate that? Filled it halfway, added everything, shook, and can only get to 3gal before it foams out the top. Thanks!

    • @RonHenry
      @RonHenry  5 місяців тому +1

      If you let the mix settle for a few minutes the foam should die down. You don’t want to use a jet nozzle when filling the tank since that will cause the foaming you’re describing.

    Question, I am throwing prodiamine granules down on my Zeon in SC here in the next two weeks. I was planning on doing another light app later in the winter or early next year and then switching to Ronstar or spectacle flo in March. POA tried to take me out last winter (I bought the place in December so I have no clue what previous owner did as far as pre em goes) would you recommend I back off the second small application later this winter and stick the princep/image mixture out after I water my prodiamine granules in instead?
    Thanks so much for what you do.

    • @RonHenry

    Bermuda grass, central Tx. Is the Spectacle FLO to be applied on its own or combined with other post-emergent herbicide you mention in this video?

    • @RonHenry

    I have a question about something that is rarely discussed. My yard is about 30% weeds. I put down about 50 pieces of st Augustine sod this summer. My plan is to put down another 30-40 pieces next spring. Should I use pre emergent for the winter and spring to kill weeds or should I wait until I have much less weed coverage? I can’t afford to cover my 5,000 sq. ft. yard. I’m retired, and now have time to work a lawn. Thanks for any help that you might give.

    • @RonHenry

      Hi FB Fields. If you're not planning to lay the St. Augustine until next spring, I would apply pre-emergent this fall. Prodiamine is a good choice. golfcourselawn.store/products/yard-mastery-0-0-7-prodiamine-38-45lb

    The rate of .10 oz/1000 how long does it last on the ground. I'm trying to use it in the fall and spring without having to use anything else. The annual max on it is 18.5oz/acre and the .10oz/per 1000 is 4.5oz/per acre, so should I do a quarterly app of .10oz/1000 to get a full year or two apps every 6 months with specticle flo. I have St Augustine grass that in Central Florida so it's sandy as well.
