I just went back and read a couple of the old messages. Yeah you are
right. RoundUp is not the solution. A selective broadcast herbicide
is what he needs. I'm in Florida and the only thing we use MSMA is
burmuda grass. 24D+Dicamba for bahia grass, atrazine on st augustine
grass. I think Image is supposed to control purple nut sedge.

While all this sounds good and well the bottom line is if you have a
thick healthy lawn you won't have a weed problem.

Why wouldn't you use something more selective on your lawn?

Nutsedge and ground ivy can be controlled with MSMA. (old school)

I'd treat the nutgrass and ground ivy with two seperate
products. (neither would be roundup or wick app)
