I've been away from my lawn for two years and these are the two prevalent
remaining weeds in my yard- nutgrass (nutsedge) and ground ivy (creeping
charlie). I have a good stand of bermuda grass going-but it really takes a
little more heat than what we have been having to make the bermuda happy.
The nutgrass and ground ivy are more sporadic than prevalent which is why I'd
be willing to do the sponge (contact) method with the roundup. I was hoping
(with the proper dilution) that just a touch of this wicked roundup-brush
would kill nutgrass and ground ivy down to the root. And in the meantime I am
trying to "accentuate the positive" -fertilizing and watering the bermuda to
encourage growth and have a "thick healthy lawn so I won't have a weed
problem".

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.
