What are your thoughts on blanket spraying this product? I have small triv patches throughout my 8,000 sq/ft lawn. Thinking this could remove triv without harming TTTF. If spots do thin out a bit, my fall over seed would address.
Might give this a go in my front yard. Its so lightly feathered into my lawn you dont notice it until it browns out in the summer. Back yard had some large patches that I killed off in the spring. Tough weed, much rather have a little poa annua
So if u have large areas of poa annua and u kill it off now in late spring, are u instantly dethatching and seeding it even though summer is coming? Or are u leaving the dead spots for fall seeding. And then using prodiamine late fall?
I agree with your opinion on it! I just used glyphosate on one big spot of triv in my yard. I do have small spots of poa annua everywhere, so will do preemergents a couple weeks after i seed in the fall.
@@Primetime_Fescue the low rate is 0.75 Oz per acre which is 0.5 ML per gallon 21 days a part at 5 apps throughout the late spring and summer. This is what I’m doing. So far two apps and the triv is dying off. However in my situation I have good grass mixed in the triv patches and KBG so the idea is for it to fill in while the slow program takes effect.
@@Primetime_Fescue I have had a different experience. I have less triv and maybe a bit more annua than the lawn you were treating though. Too early for me to draw a final conclusion but I am not disappointed so far. I do agree with your ultimate conclusion that if you are killing large patches of POA, going non-selective would make more sense. My plan is to go with very low rates over a long period of time to keep the lawn clean. We’ll see.
He said "Triv," which stands for poa trivialis. Thanks for the video. I've been curious if Velocity was worth the expense. I normally light it up with Tenacity and then use a AccuTip Dauber and follow up with spot treatments of Glyphosate.
Thanks for taking the time to try it out for the rest of us! Great videos as always 👏👏

I think that can work if the spots aren’t to large

Excellent video. You covered all the important bases.

Do you have to mix a fresh batch every time? Also is it best to kill everything off before summer?

Thank you for the update!
In my opinion, NuFarm should not have bothered to label the high rate. It’s the low rate for POA mgmt over time which is where this product shines.
Well I Did the low rate 1.1oz per acre! It shined alright 🤣🤣 right down to the dirt!
I should add that I totally expected it to be dirt in a large patch which poa tribe usually is

Well NuFarm provides options. Why would you complain about that?

Big spots of what ? You never said what you are trying to kill

Looks like preemergents for us po people...
That’s the best option for poa annua! Won’t work on triv if it’s already there unfortunately being it’s a perennial
Pre-emergents do not work on poa trivialis.
