This is my go to product. I've been using this product for 6 years now. I use the bottle that attaches to the hose. I spray the yard and with in 2 weeks, the weeds are history.
Do you use a surfactant, like baby shampoo, mixed in or applied before to help the Weed B Gon stick to the leaves? I've been thinking about doing that.
Once the crab grass gets that big and that dense you basically have to chalk it up as a loss until next season when you can get down some preemergent. When you kill fully mature crab grass it just turns brown and then is brown the whole rest of the year.
This stuff works great. I used it last year and going into year 2 I barely have any weeds now. I reapplied it today, but this stuff has worked far greater than Scott's.
I've been in your shoes, spent a lot of money and was like pissing in the wind. You need to just leave it and start in the fall. New Seed, Aerate, then apply your pre-emergent for crabgrass in the early spring even before they say to prevent the crabgrass from coming up. Oh and lots of Milorganite. Thats what I did, and although I have weeds, I do not have any crabgrass and plenty of fescue. Working on the clover and some other weeds now with what you just used.
I think crab grass "control" means it slows it's growth down. So if I'm not mistaken you need to apply it when they are starting to come up to allow the desirable grasses to get ahead an choke it off.
Just a word of caution: What you called "crabgrass" look more like goose grass. To kill crabgrass you need a pre-emergent germination blocker with Dythyoper or similar chemical and apply it about the time the forsythia blooms and way before lilacs budd. I have been doing this for years and I have a weed free lawn.
They have web b gon you can hook up to the water hose, works very good, also before you use that weed killer, cut grass with the lowest setting on your lawnmower that way you get the most out of the weed killer, easier to kill a half inch weed than a 2 inch weed, so cutting the grass on the lowest setting on your lawnmower before you lay down your weed killer helps a lot.
Yeah most definitely don't scalp the lawn before spraying. You will damage the good grass. Might as well use a non selective like glyphosate if your gonna do that
Murk is right here. These herbicides need to land on the leaf surface and be absorbed. Scalping the weeds removes surface area for the herbicide to work.
Quinclorac with a Surfacant is the best crabgrass killer. Then in the spring, you MUST apply a pre-emergent like Scotts Spring Crabgrass Pre-emergent granuals to kill off any seeds before they have a chance to sprout.
Ortho Nutsedge killer works great too. Sprayed and 1 week it was DEAD. Just sprayed 3 bottles of Ortho weed be gone on newly germinated crabgrass and it seems to be working on crabgrass, oxalis, clover and creeping charlie. Kinda browning some Dallas grass but I don't think it is gonna kill it. I usually use concentrate but I have a half acre.
With heavier weed areas, I spray twice, 1 week apart. Once under control, I spot spray with a 16 ounce hand spray bottle. I use the concentrate only. I also have a Solo 4 gallon backpack sprayer.
It has been five days and the weed in my lawn looks healthier and greener than before applying ortho weed b-gone. For crabgrass use Tenacity it is expensive but it works like magic.
@@transformer889 Not true. You need to use the clover killer, Trycloyr (which is not in regular week b gon). It destroys clover..... Available right in Lowes and Home Depot....
You can reapply after 3 weeks, the first round of injury is a good sign that the second application will finish the job. These are good results from your basic 3 way. Also, consider adding dish soap to help stick the spray to the leaves.
I cant tell if the small ones are wild violets or creeping charlie but those weeds are tough. If you add a sticking agent it is way more effective. As you stayed, hitting crabgrass before mature stage should kill it out.
It will take more than a week, many people think that it doesn't work because it doesn't get everything within one week. Several of them are going to take up to four and five weeks. But one little trick. Can also do, add a little bit of dish detergent! This will allow the chemical to stick to the grass longer. There is other chemicals that will do this that you can purchase that cost more, but everybody has some dish detergent under their sink I'm sure.
Most of my yard was clover, I used a Gordon's product weed and feed it dried them up where you could run your foot over the top of it and it turned to dust...good stuff...I'm having a tougher time with the crab grass, and think they are dollar weeds but I'm no expert...
Thanks for infos. Ortho is the best. Geez pesky flies have bothered me so I used Ortho bug b gone water spray today. 👍🏻 Yea I also have Bermuda grasses too. Yes it get brown on October through winter season until February. Ohh those grasses fast growing on spring until October mows like twice a week. Not once to mow on winter season, doesn’t grow very much which is not much work. Be glad you like Bermuda grasses. Lol 👍🏻 😎
My experience with it has been OK, but it takes several applications. Some of my neighbors don't seem to care what their lawns look like as long as they're green so thier weed seeds blow onto my lawn and I have to re-apply as part of the regular maintenance. I also use a per-emergence early in the season.
I could be wrong but I think that’s actually goose grass. Crabgrass grows snug to the ground, not vertically like what you showed. I’m not 100%, so don’t rip me if I’m wrong.
OK...The weeds get wilted, how soon can I reseed the lawn? Do I have to dig up the dead or sick weeds first? Thank you for taking the time to make the video. New subscriber.
I soak the leaves. Fine mist makes more droplets. Within 24 hrs they looked bad and 2-3 days later they shriveled to the point that you can't really find them. I overseeded and have Scotts Green Max for fertilizer. This way the dark spots don't really show. Dark spots from clusters of weeds you killed or if you soak the grass it can develop dark spots from the Weed B-Gon Max. My grass is so dense from the overseeding (2 x in the last 2 months) dethatching and aerating. Now I'm going to hit it with starter fertilizer and mow high. The weeds that try to come to my lawn will not be able to germinate because their seeds cannot touch soil and nay that try to make a comeback will have no sunlight. The creeping fescue will fill any patches.
I just bought two gallons of WBG concentrate because I prefer to fill my 32 gallon liquid broadcaster and pull the tank across my lawn behind my lawn tractor. It's bad enough I use a granular fertilizer spreader walk-behind. I pull the tank for the liquid concentrate pesticide also. Fun times..... You're making me tired.....
Pre-emerge pre-emerge pre-emerge! I appreciate that you asked for an expert to leave a comment. Weed killer is a lot like poor videos; more is not better.
Not so bad to have your situation when I started with 90 x 80 of ivy. It’s a back breaker! Your sprayer instructions say (if at the fill line. You’re over filled) you can pump no more than 10-15 times before spraying.
One house that I owned quite a while ago was in a neighborhood that was a haven for dandelions. The yards were full of them. I used Weed B Gon about 2 or 3 times a year in my yard and I didn't have a single weed while the neighbor's yard looked like a showcase for dandelions. The house after that I had a thistle problem. I just dug those up as weed killer didn't seem to work on them. The house after that was pretty much weed-free but it was in the middle of nowhere. My current house has a minor dandelion issue, moderate clover issue, and a moderate crabgrass issue. So far the crabgrass control from Scotts didn't work. I just fertilized so I have to wait about 30 days before I can use the Weed B Gon. But I'm pretty confident that it will work.
My experience with WBG is that it acts like a fertilizer for crab grass and skeleton weed. In the past, I've had some success with a Spetracide weed killer. WBG doesn't seem to be working all too well. Just one man's experience. BTW, I have the same pump sprayer as you - I like it a lot. Cheers.
Specicide does make the product Weed Stop in concentrate on sale now at lowes for $1.76 today 9/25/19 bought plenty bottles of it to treat my client lawns also, call there before you go to see if it still available.
@Suburban Millenial. The best time to use stuff like this is early spring before weeds germinate. Thats “pre-emergent” everyone mentions. Many off the shelf brands carry hose end style bottles that you can just hook up your hose and go. They work really well if you get it down early. Easier than using a sprayer. Sprayers are for spot spraying, not a situation like you have going on.
Best solution for killing weeds? Thick, dense grass! Mow your grass high! 3-3.5”. It will look so much better. If you start a “weed war” in late summer, then just wait until September and kill the weeds to the dirt with a string trimmer, then dethatch and rake the lawn. After that, sow lots of grass seed and water it a couple of hours a day. You’ll notice a difference in a few weeks, and be amazed in the spring!
I can assure you that you werent getting good coverage with that little pump sprayer. You have to use at least a good backpack sprayer and apply a good even coat.
Did you also spray it on sections that had good lawn? For example: spraying it on mixed areas. Im concerned it'll kill both the good with the bad. Thanks!
So what if there is no winter, like where I am in California? Grass never dies, including crabgrass, so i will never get to use the pre emergent. I tried literally dousing a sample section my lawn with ortho weed b gon.... almost zero effect on crabgrass. And dandelions for that matter....not sure, how or even if, I can really get rid of crabgrass.
For my crabgrass I literally manually pulled it out from the roots. Why? I used the same products no success on it. I used premix weed be gone and still nothing 🤬😢🤦🏽♀️. I know there’s better products but manually pulling worked for me.
My understanding: grass can metabolize the active ingredients of the weed killer. It’s takes like 6 months but it can do it. I am not a professional I just have the internet.
He needs to watch Doc! Hopefully he has found him on youtube. Also the weeds at the end of the video looks like wild violets and that is hard to kill you need weed B gon with Triclopyr in it.
You read instructions,,, and POURED a pint or more to a gallon??? Glad it helped. Use of "sticker" or dish soap to help plant absorb. Also a "marker" solution to enable you to see where you are spot spraying. The BIGGEST help would definitely be the use of a pre-emergent such as barricade before ground temps reach 55. Some plants germinate in early fall so if you have any of those, pre-emerge in September, but not if you plan to over seed. Good luck.
Not a sight of yellow flower after I used it. 👍🏻 hope that’ll help you. But do weedeaters and mows first then spread it next day. If weed plant is too big for your weedeater, use a branch cutter.
Awesome edit and music! Sorry you didn't get better results with all that work. Feel ur pain. Seems like a broad pellet weed killer would have been easier and then touch up areas after 2 weeks with a spray.
That weed with the white flower is Virginia Buttonweed, one nasty invader. Each of those flowers drops 2 seeds that 100% germination. Not only that, it is a perennial with a crazy strong root system.
I have that button weed on mu lawn and says orthro weed b gone, which they took off the shelves ay lowes and home depot this year, i brought the concentrate on sale few months back under $2.00 and today 9/25/19, it's still on sale at Lowe's for $ 1.76 same bottle, made by Specicide Weed Stop same product,doesn't control crabgrass though, mu button weed it will plus over 200 other weeds, it does work to, Bought a few more bottles again..call first to see if they still carry it..good luck..
Dude. Dont let that stuff touch your skin in any way. Wear long gloves. Rinse the crap off of the sprayer before you start so it doesn't get on you. Dont touch your face or any exposed skin with the gloves. Take a shower when your done and wash your shoes, better to wear boots.
Is this safe for an organic garden? I’m looking to apply this into my vegetable and flower garden. I’ve read the back label it has a lot of warnings to avoided contact with skin, eyes, clothing, it even says do not breath this stuff into your lungs. So can anyone confirm if this is safe for my edible garden plants? 🙏
FYI... this mix was NOT concentrate. It was the “Ready to Use” solution. No water needed.
smh
Do you need to water your lawn after spraying Ortho weed b gon?? Thanks
This is my go to product. I've been using this product for 6 years now. I use the bottle that attaches to the hose. I spray the yard and with in 2 weeks, the weeds are history.

@@revenant-xixthat is my question... what to do now after it "dies "...🤔🤔
Once the crab grass gets that big and that dense you basically have to chalk it up as a loss until next season when you can get down some preemergent. When you kill fully mature crab grass it just turns brown and then is brown the whole rest of the year.
What area are you in ? What month do you put down pre emergent ,March ? Also which should come first ? Pre emergent ,or fertilizer ?
This stuff works great. I used it last year and going into year 2 I barely have any weeds now. I reapplied it today, but this stuff has worked far greater than Scott's.
So what do you use after the stuff dies? To help grass build in those areas?
Would have been interesting to see where we were after two weeks or more. I've used this and had basically zero success against crab grass
the battle against crabgrass is won by the application(s) of pre-emergent.
Only before it comes up… once it’s up the battle is won by Weed Killer

Suburban Millennial you should wear rubber boots, for safety and try not to walk on the area that’s been sprayed. Until it dries we’ll.
Add a dye to the solution so you can see exactly where you've sprayed. Game changer.

Stephen L thanks for the tips!
just curious if you considered the version that connects to your hose for spraying the entire yard
'REFILL' is a concentrate intended for those sprayers that connect to the garden hose.
Solid product and trust your lawn looks ALOT better than this mess im fixing in Texas.
Sry to hear!
How many days do you need to stop watering the lawn after application?

Once crab grass is grown the pre-emergents wont work. You will need a product like tenacity.
Drive works great too
Does the Drive have the same adverse effects like the bleaching of tips? I love my tenacity but the prolonged bleaching is the only drawback
You can’t use Tenacity on bermuda
Al Odd Depends on grass type. No Bermuda or SA! Works great on zoysia.
IT WORKS EARLY IN THE YEAR LIKE IM USING NOW SIR GREAT PRODUCT IN MY OPINION
Is it best to cut the grass first and apply weed killer after? Is it rain resistant?
How long did you have to wait to mow after application?
Most of my yard was clover, I used a Gordon's product weed and feed it dried them up where you could run your foot over the top of it and it turned to dust...good stuff...I'm having a tougher time with the crab grass, and think they are dollar weeds but I'm no expert...
If I remember correctly certain pesticides work differently on weeds depending on the time of year and maturity of said weed. I might be mistaken
Use tenacity, add some topsoil and overseed with the grass type you want.
This. Tenacity is the god among herbicide and pre/post emergents
It’s sloooooow though. Very cool to see things bleaching. My first experience is pretty good!
Tenacity isnt really effective at controlling much other than the sedges tbh does shit for mature crabgrass
Thanks for infos. Ortho is the best.

Mid July is to late for crabgrass. Need to hit when soil temps are 55-70 degrees.

Pre emerging is the only way to stop it. It must be stopped before it starts. That means apply during 50 degrees to 70 degrees
Use tenacity with a surfactant. You won’t be disappointed
What part of the country do you live in? I was wondering if I can use tenacity on St Augustine grass in Florida.
3pumpkins Tenacity is safe for Centipede and St Augustine
Yes you will. Tenacity is not safe for Bermuda you fool
Heavy weed areas may take 3 applications when applied on dry days.

You need to leave far more room for air in your sprayer otherwise there is nothing to compress and create pressure and you will be pumping a lot.
Add dish soap to the sprayer, not much just a squeeze or two. It will bond the weed b gone to the weeds leaf.
He needs to watch Doc! Hopefully he has found him on youtube. Also the weeds at the end of the video looks like wild violets and that is hard to kill you need weed B gon with Triclopyr in it.

Depends if its concentrate or not. I am pretty sure this is a refill for the stuff that comes with the little battery powered wand.
As long as it's nice, thick and green like that, it doesn't look half bad ahahah
The weeds are nice and green lol
This would have been a job for Tenacity./Blue dye/ Suf. I have never seen so much crabgrass.
Tenacity isnt supposed to be used on bermuda grass unless the grass is dormant
it takes longer for the herbicide to show the result
Check out pre emergents.
Surfactant
With that much crabgrass I would just rent a tiller and start over.
Must use a broadleaf weed killer
I need a weed man 😂
Did you try a pre-emergent early spring?
Dude. Dont let that stuff touch your skin in any way. Wear long gloves. Rinse the crap off of the sprayer before you start so it doesn't get on you. Dont touch your face or any exposed skin with the gloves. Take a shower when your done and wash your shoes, better to wear boots.
That was button weed! Yuck Very hard to control.
Can you say Prodiamine???
Lol the weed man 👨 🤣
Bermuda grass actually is a type of weed too :p
Cameron tall fescue and all grass are weed 😁
Is this safe for an organic garden? I’m looking to apply this into my vegetable and flower garden. I’ve read the back label it has a lot of warnings to avoided contact with skin, eyes, clothing, it even says do not breath this stuff into your lungs. So can anyone confirm if this is safe for my edible garden plants? 🙏
No it's not.
It should be mixed in a ratio of 1 ounce of Weed b gone per gallon of water.
No. This was the “Ready to Use” not the Concentrate.
