We've been working on a patch of Bermuda grass for decades and it just
won't quit. Now it's making a crack running halfway across the street
and growing wider every day! We've managed to sort of contain it but
never beat it back entirely.


I am not too sure if Finale is a broad leaf or full spectrum herbicide, but if
it will work on turf it's the better of the two, Round Up or Finale. If it is
judiciously painted on the blades, it may not be too harmful. Now, this goes
against everything I stand for, so I'm choking this out. I hate the ongoing
loosening and pulling I do each year, but each year a little less grows than the
year before. As I loosen and pull, I get more and more of the root because I
boost the tilth of the soil with compost. Looser soil makes it easier to pull
the full root and be done with that piece.
