Nimblewill spreading throughout the yard
It is now six days since I applied the Tenacity and the Nimblewill is really dying. I have a lot of pale straw-colored patches in the yard where I applied the spray. It is really amazing, the lawn grass interspersed with the Nimblewill has not changed color at all, and the Nimblewill looks like it is on the way out. Only thing is I now can see a bunch of smaller weed patches that I didn't see the first time around, so I will have to go out tomorrow and give them a dose of spray. But, it looks like Tenacity is a winner for me over the Nimblewill.

Yes, we do have a few violets. I find that repeated spraying of Spectracide weed killer does work, but takes several applications close together. I also have been known to apply a couple of drops of Roundup directly onto a violet leaf, avoiding any grass. I'll try the Tenacity on the violets if I can find any, they're pretty well gone.

Never thought of a drop of Roundup. That sounds like that might be pretty easy. I have a spare eyedropper. I tried a paint brush. Couldn't easily get the liquid on the leaves. -- Dan Espen |

For grins, I tried spraying the Tenacity on crabgrass, it worked great. Now I have several more pale spots in my yard, but the Tenacity does not seem to have had ANY effect on my normal grass (Don't know what varieties I actually have, it is a mixture of various stuff from when we bought the house 49 years ago and what I have reseeded over the years.
