PICS of the Problem
wrote in message ps.com... I agree that at least some of it looks like crabgrass, though I'm not sure it's all crabgrass. There may be some other weed type grass there as well. Af riend of mine has a rough blade type grass growing here in NJ that goes from brown to green this time of year. And whatever it is, it's not crabgrass. I agree with Jim, if you kill it now, it will look bad for a few weeks as the crabgrass dies. The optimum time to kill any crabgrass that escaped pre-emergent treatment was a few weeks ago, when the plants were still small and easier to kill. On the other hand, leaving it there, it will continue to grow, still look pretty bad and choke out desirable grass until first frost. So, it's a mixed bag as to what to do. Acclaim is effective and what I use, but at this point you will need 2 treatments to kill it. Also, don't apply any herbicide when it 85+ out or the grass is stressed from lack of water. Pre-emergent neeeds to be applied before there are any plants, in the spring. |
