Dope rope is classy while doing lawn work, appreciate the tips on tenacity
Nice ! 🤙, In a lot of areas crabgrass will die off during the Winter . In our area "the same as yours, I'm in F.W. " it doesn't get cold enough long enough to kill off the crabgrass, so here we are in Spring getting on it .
Yes sir spring time crabgrass wakes up if not treated and is a headache all season long lol! good ol FW my old stomping grounds! 😊🤙🏾
Great video! Thanks for being so informative.
Thank you so much for tuning in! Hope it helps! 😊🤙🏾🙏🏾🔥
Very nice presentation and thanks for sharing.
Thanks for tuning in 😊🙌🏾🤙🏾🙏🏾
Just ran across your videos and wanted to say your work looks good. I see the Washington license plates so take it you're in the PNW. I'm in Vancouver so nice seeing videos from our area.
Yes Sir! PNW!!!! Thank you very much for tuning in! 😊🙏🏾🤙🏾
Great video. Thanks
Well explained
Thank you for tuning in! 😊🙏🏾🤙🏾🔥
My dude sir, where in the country are you located and what type of grass do you have? I live in the Midwest and I’m thinking how to apply your knowledge into my lawn. Love the channel, great videos to watch.
Thanks for tuning in! I am in the pacific northwest Cool season grass region :) Thanks for the support! 😊🤙🏾
This is so helpful. I missed early spring. It’s still spring, is it still effective if I start now? I’m in Virginia. Your voice is so soothing by the way. Appreciate the video!!
Thank you so much 😂 I constantly hear that never thought my voice would be soothing 😂😊🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾 but yes you can def apply it now! I would mow it low, spray some tenacity and add some seed… by the time the tenacity bleaching wears off you have brand new seedlings making your lawn even more perfect 😊🤙🏾🔥🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
I use that stuff too after i apply it i come back and spray iorn and it works like magic.
Yes it’s the best!!! I tried other crabgrass products and it’s not the same tenacity is dialed in! 😊🙏🏾🔥🤙🏾
I am going to renovate my lawn this fall. I live on a golf course in Michigan and I have a lot of bent grass. Can you give me a time frame as to when I should do my first application of Tenacity to start the process?
Oh nice! I’m gonna lay down tenacity the same time i seed… if temps start cooling down end of august for sure if not the 1st week of September so by Halloween I’m dominating again! Full Reno though for the first time so I don’t know how fast this grass is gonna spread 😊🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🤙🏾
add a portion of Velocity herbicide to the concoction to get rid of the Poas.
I have a new bottle never opened. I will be using Round Up on my new lawn 🤔🤫😁
😂 buys bottle just in case one of his RUclips yard buddies shows up so they can say “Tenacity… nice 👍” 😂😂😂 😊🙏🏾🤙🏾
Thanks, bro. I have tenacity, and it works pretty well on my neighbor's lawn. As far as my lawn goes, the turf is so fierce, I have never seen a weed grow in it. I wonder if it is because of the area I live in. I never see crabgrass in N California like I used to see it in S California.
Nice!! That’s crazy! you know the only problem I have in mine is POA Trivialis… I can control poa Annua but triv is strong in the soil 😂😂😂😊🤙🏾🙏🏾🔥
@@YardBrah Well, from the video, your lawn looks amazing once you get everything put down. You are controlling it well. What's funny is I never thought I would be into lawn care. It is so therapeutic and rewarding for some reason.
@@littlepoolefam3 😂 You're telling me! Never in a million years would I have thought I was gonna have a lawn care channel 😂🤙🏾
Great video. Quick question. Can I use Tenacity when I put down grass seed or should I wait until the grass fully germinates?
Def apply the same time, you can do post emergent if needed I believe by the 3rd mow so you don’t damage the seedlings 😊🤙🏾🙏🏾🔥
@@YardBrah Thank you!
I sodded last fall and had 8 weeks until dormancy.... I am going to do my whole yard 11,000 sq feet with tenacity because Prodiamine root inhibition scares me first spring with the sod
Good call since it's newer but A lot of lawn folk have been telling me to try Prodiamine it's really good for established grass and apparently for my poa annua lol 🙏🏾🤙🏾
Did you rake the dead bleached weeds?
Thank you for the great overview! Quick question: how do you remove the dead weeds? My yard is 80% weeds at this point. Trying to figure out how I'm going to remove all those dead weeds prior to reseeding.
Weed eater and then rake or bag mow them up. Or just leave them as they might help the seed from moving from rain.
Check out Sun Joe Dethacther, there are a few different makers with better price points, use that to clear the weeds and dead grass, you will be amazed on how much material comes out.
I’m in the same boat. I think I will try the dethatcher.
@@inlinesix6694 Works great start at the higher setting. See how that goes. Remember Post and Pre for the weeds.
@@Moondoggy1941 the sun joe at the highest setting worked great! Took out almost all of the weeds but also looks like it took out some grass. Gonna give overseed a shot next even though it’s not warm anymore where I’m at.
Question
Can I use this on my lawn to kill the weeds and have seeds called black beauty ultra will the grass be safe i wish you were my neighbor so you could help with my yard lol
If using as a preemergent, do you still want to wait on watering for 6 hours? Or can you water right away? Thanks for the great vid!
I’ve always just watered it in and the results are awesome… post you want to mix with surfactant and let it chill at least dry then you can water.. for instance when I overseed with the process I’ll tenacity after soil or sand level then seed, rake, etc do all the things I do for 2 hours and once the process is complete I water it always works my friend 😊🙏🏾🔥🤙🏾
I have a question regarding that sprayer you are using. How many times do you have to repump it throughout your work? Frequently? in frequently? Trying to decide whether I need to spend money on a battery powered one or not. I am looking forward to applying tenacity when it warms up a tad up here
I just timed it for you! so 30 pumps lasts about 120 seconds of good spray. I have 1500 sqft and I will pump 3 sets for 30 pumps just so I can get a nice steady strong flow for a full gallon. It's a chapin 1 gal good for little jobs like this. I Use my Petra HD4000 backpack for fertilizer and mixed goodies applications more for nutrients liquids :) Hope this helps! 😊🤙🏾
@@YardBrah Thanks so much for timing it. You are the man.
Obviously Tenacity has the active ingredients, but could you just use dish soap as a surfactant or does it not stick as well as a commercial grade surfactant? Your yard looks amazing by the way.
Thank you 😊🙏🏾 you know I’ve only used surfactant… I normally don’t go with the home remedies for the lawn… if it ain’t broke don’t fix it 😂😂😂👊🏾😊🔥🔥🙏🏾
I have a about 1000sq ft front lawn and I going to do a renovation in fall. I live in Pacific NW- Seattle and I am planning to use Tenacity, any tips? Thanks
oh nice!!! Yes check out this vid for how I do the process with the tenacity as well! ruclips.net/video/ZWp_1Eyv27I/видео.html Thanks for tuning in!!! 🙏🏾😊🤙🏾
If I choose to overseed my lawn, do I do Tenacity BEOFRE or AFTER applying the seeds?
I put tenacity after I lay down too soil then I lay down seed and liightly take it in 🙏🏾🤙🏾 check this vid out of me helping my neighbor ruclips.net/video/5z3w0auGK5U/видео.html 😊
@@YardBrah - Thank you so much for your help. I have been addicted all day watching a lot of your videos. I want to ask, what state do you live in? I want to get an idea of the different spring timing between us. Also, what grass do you have?
Is this safe on bermuda grass? If not what can I use on bermuda grass ?
Can I use this now July?
Brah!
I loved the video, but where’s the “preseason intensity” video?
Why my preseason lawn rocks, and yours is just rocks🤣
Hahahahahahahhaha yes you are right! I guess my confidence and intensity goes up once the grass is looking flawless! Right now my yard is like a high schooler about to go to prom with a bunch of acne feeling a little insecure 🥴😂🤣
@@YardBrah I won’t show you mine…..
My dogs turned it into a nightmare over the winter……. Think bad pot holes 🕳
Creeping Charlie, clover, and other broadleaf weeds..! Hello there from Cape Cod Mass,, what do you recommend for the three weeds listed on my lawn. Please
I just used t-zone and it worked wonders! Give it a shot! amzn.to/3WNghKO 😊👊🏾🙏🏾🤙🏾
How long do you normally wait to cut your grass after applying? Thank you
I’ve noticed a cut 2 days after and regular mowing 3-4 times a week will keep the bleaching down on the turf and only the pests will turn white! 😊🤙🏾🙌🏾🙏🏾
Hi, just saw your vdo today. Is it too late right now to follow your techniques as a variety of weeds have already populated part of my yards. We have Bermuda grass. Please advise. Thank you so much
So from what I’ve learned (again I’m cool season grass) you can only apply tenacity to dormant Bermuda grass… if it’s semi growing already then you’re gonna damage the grass… prodiamine should have been applied as a pre emergent…. I heard celsius is a good post emergent for Bermuda 😊🤙🏾🙏🏾🔥🔥🔥
I put some Tenacity down per the instructions and it seems to be working. After about 4-5 days the crabgrass is turning white...which is a very satisfying feeling - the clover is slower to change, but it's getting there. Based on your recommendation I am going to put another application down in a couple of weeks since I can already see some spots I missed. In some areas it's like 90% crabgrass. Should I rake the crabgrass out once it's dead then seed, or just seed over the dead crabgrass? I am thinking it would be better to get the crabgrass out - at least in the heavy areas, and then over seed. Yes?
Oh nice glad it’s working it’s the best! I would def get rid of the crabgrass rake or power rake or even use a plugger then resoil… I always tenacity the same time I overseed so if you overseed def get an application in again at least 4-6 weeks apart from when you did it last! 😊🙌🏾🙏🏾🤙🏾
@@YardBrah Sounds like a good plan, I will take your advice. Thanks for the reply.👍
Are you in the western washington?
thank u bro...where can i buy? also, is tenacity good for post emergent as well?
Try here amzn.to/43DmFqY if Amazon don’t ship to you try domyown.com 😊🔥🤙🏾🙏🏾
I'm doing a late spring, early summer application, and it seems to be doing the job. After barely a week, the front of my lawn is turning bright white. Most of the front is crabgrass, so that makes sense.
I'm in the California Sacramento Valley and it's now a cooler than expected June. Hoping it stays in the mid to upper 80s so I can do another treatment of tenacity before really going to town and seeding more tall fescue.
Question I have is, should I just give up on seeding for the rest of the summer? I'm doing tall fescue, which is a spring seed. The lawn was flourishing at the beginning of spring, and I applied tenacity early on, but I didn't do it right, as I watered too soon, and I didn't see any crab grass die.
After one weekend late May of 95° heat, the lawn retreated, and the crab grass took over.😢
I feel like I should just kill as much crab grass as possible, let the tenacity do it's job, then mow high enough, and water and fert like crazy to give the existing tall fescue a chance to stay alive until fall.
My theory is that it'll revive in the winter, and I could also do another tenacity treatment early fall to keep weeds at bay. Then care for the lawn over the warm winter as best I can.
Sorry so long here, but what are your thoughts?
Yeah you guys get way too hot but if the soil temps are good I would overseed if you can keep up with the watering. It’s a hard call cause this is when grass doesn’t thrive so either you wait or make it thrive 😂👊🏾🤙🏾🙏🏾
@@YardBrah Appreciate the advice! I probably need to mow low though, aerate, pull some obvious weeds, hit it with tenacity once more, and then seed and fert.
You think that's the best chance I got?
Yard Bruh, today is February 1st, and I'm in Central California. My crab grass is showing out big time. Can I put tenacity now or wait a couple of weeks?
If your grass is growing a bit go for it…. I’m about to apply mine in the next couple weeks 😊🔥🤙🏾🙏🏾
Does Tenacity work in Pencasola Bahía grass?
Not sure I know cool season grasses you are good to go 🤙🏾🔥🙏🏾
Thanks for the video, OK. Lol.
😂🤙🏾
Hi, I sprayed tenacity today after i overseed and seeded new spot today sooo can i water it after and put some straws after
Nice!!! Good luck with the overseed! 😊🤙🏾🙏🏾🔥
Using tenacity for the first time this year as a post emergent, do you recommend using it with blue dye ?
I have the blue dye but it's a mess, if your sprayer leaks the concrete is dyed blue lol... so i say skip the blue dye. It's helpful for spot treating... and if you need to know where you put the tenacity down. 😊🤙🏾
@@YardBrah USE blue dye, if you don't you will over or under lap the spray. I double the recommended dose so you can see where you missed or oversprayed
@@jspinosa50 yeah brother it's just a mess for me man lol dyes everything blue... the sprayer the concrete... my hands 😂 I'm so used to spraying now I'm pretty accurate, petra hd4000 is one leaky machine... but yes for a newb the blue dye will help if they haven't sprayed before 😊🙌🏾🙏🏾🤙🏾
What about on Zoysia? I would only dare using a surgical - spot application.
Oh I’d be careful the zoys is sensitive to tenacity you might want to try a warm season herbicide off the top of my head 2,4-d but that might be just for broad leaf not grassy weeds 😊🤙🏾
Hey Brah! I mentioned in another one of your videos I had new KBG sod laid about 6 weeks and notice some clovers and stuff popping up in a few areas. I didn't use a pre emergent prior to the sod being laid. Would this be safe to use now and if so should I spray the whole lawn or just spot treat where I see weeds coming up. I wasn't sure if it's safe to use herbicides on new sod. Thanks brah
Go get some t-zone it won’t bleach your lawn if you use tenacity right now it will ruin your summer with the bleaching action 😂😂😂 trust me last about 6 weeks lawn looks like ass … t-zone for post emergent weeds you’re good to go
@@YardBrah yeah I tried looking unfortunately it's not available in Canada
So we spray the entire lawn? Or just spots? I'm in Hawaii and have a weed outbreak. Hired a new gardener and think he doesn't wash down equipment before going to a new lawn.
Def check if your grass type can handle tenacity braddah if it can yes you can spray all over just to be safe cause you never know if some weeds are hiding! 😂 if you can’t use tenacity see if your grass type can handle prodiamine 😊🙏🏾🤙🏾🔥
Bro i have never use that I need to try it in my back yard
Yes sir do you have some weeds creeping up? 😅🤙🏾
@@YardBrah i have two. Right now I haven't sprayed yet
@@YardBrah I'm gonna put a pre emergent and weed killer down soon soil hits 55
So I finally had time to blast my property with Tenacity. Did spot treatment of clover/buttercup/random broadleaf weeds/and patches of poa. I have a large patch of what appears to be Poa Triv that after 10 days is now bleached white. Is it dead? Or is it simply bleached for identification purposes and I must now pull it out?
Yeah he will live pull him out for sure he not dying 😂😂😂😂😂 freakin triv is the person that invites themselves to functions 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@YardBrah so the bleaching is for identification only?
Maybe in the description you can put a time stamp so we know when you this is the best time to install it. You tube removed that function.
Late spring is the best and before overseeding 😊🤙🏾🔥🙏🏾
Can i apply tenacity when i am to expect rain in the next 6 hours? Directions dont mention anything but i want to be sure
I would wait… you want it to stick to the plant when using as post emergent… pre emergent I don’t see a difference water or not but to be safe let it dry 😊🙏🏾🤙🏾👊🏾
@YardBrah hey so today no rain. I applied my weed killer. Tenacity and such. Well tomorrow is my watering day in the morning. How long should I wait before watering? I last sprayed at 415 pm my time.
Do you know if surfactant is necessary if all you want to do is get to the ground and use as a pre-emergent? My weeds are dead but I have bare areas I want to overseed
To my understanding, if you want to use as a pre-emergent you don’t use a surfactant and you have to water it in.
You should be fine surfactant would help stick to any weeds that are already up and with my experience even if the weeds are “dead” they still creep up like zombies 😂 from my experience I’ve always used surfactant I think once I just used tenacity bare cause it was just dirt. Hope this helps 😊🙏🏾🤙🏾
@@dlp4183 oh it definitely got watered in. Thanks.
You can spot spray later with a surfactant. Right now your just preventing new weeds from seeding. If you use the surfactant your chances of bleaching are higher because it sticks to the leaves. Right now you want it in the soil. It’s the same stuff in a weed and feed fertilizer that has granules. They dissolve into the soil.
I'll be spreading dithiopyr once the babies grow strong enough. I hear Tenacity doesn't last more than three weeks
What type of grass can you apply this on
Cool season grass types 🤙🏾🔥🔥🔥
Does it work on henbit?
Yes Tenacity does work on Henbit! 😊🤙🏾
Where can I get this if I’m in a state where it doesn’t ship?
Try domyown 😊👊🏾🙏🏾🤙🏾
Where can you buy Tenacity,lazor,surfactant.
Tenacity and surfactant amzn.to/42ekOrQ and the blue Lazer amzn.to/3FxG2Hq 😊🙏🏾🤙🏾
So, it's not a good idea to water your grass 2-3 days after application of Tenacity?
tenacity should be on the plant for post and on the soil for pre for at least 6 hours 😊🙏🏾🤙🏾
@@YardBrah for the pre-emergent application I thought you did have to water it in? Thanks for the reply.
where can I get it with delivery to Europe?
I’m not sure you can get it in Europe 😩😂😊🔥🤙🏾🙏🏾
I thought when applying in the spring no surfactant and it needs to be watered in as a pre emergent? I’m in Canada
So pre emergent yes this video was more early spring my application window was tight and some unwanted vegetation was poppin through so a little surfactant helped 😊🙏🏾🤙🏾🔥
@@YardBrah yes I’m in early spring as well. I’m a little confused ? So if a few weeds have popped out it’s too late to put down for crabgrass ? Say you have some other kind of weeds that have popped what method Work best to knock to stop crabgrass and hit the small weeds that have popped thank you
@@CHB_98 Sorry that video you watched was last season at that time it was early spring but this season I did tenacity late winter and will be doing another application before I overseed in May.
My suggestion is put it down now blanket spray everything and you'll be good to go i've done it with and without surfactant it gives me the same results lol 😊🤙🏾🙏🏾🔥
@@YardBrah ok so you use surfactant for pre emergent and don’t water in and you get the same results ? And how often can I apply this stuff I had bad crabgrass last year in July I want to stop it from starting
@@YardBrah how far away do I keep tenacity from flower beds and trees ?
I want to use this product, but my wife has concerns that it will harm the small animals in my yard. Can anyone please tell me if tenacity will harm them.
Once tenacity has dried on your lawn, it is safe and non-toxic for children and pets 😊🙏🏾👊🏾🤙🏾
Sup bre
What’s up my dude 😊🤙🏾
But poa in northern lawn?
Oh I’ve had poa for the last 2 seasons I’m pretty sure it’s from the Scott’s brand Kentucky blue grass. Ever since I planted that mix it’s been poa annua and poa triv every spring 🤦🏾♂️
@@YardBrah that’s wild. Scott’s brand seed and especially their kbg is fantastic.
Hello is it possible to order to you a smal quantity ? I am from France
Hey send me an email I have a possible deal for you lol yardbrah@gmail.com! You do me this favor and i'll buy you a whole bottle for free!!!!!
If you do 2 treatments, when should you over-seed?
you can overseed the same time as tenacity application... but if you already did two applications you have to wait 4-6 weeks before you can overseed to see germination I did this last year when I killed the poa annua... i tried to overseed after application and it would not take until I think the 5th week I reseeded and finally saw some germination! 😊🙏🏾🤙🏾
My lawn is the best in my cul de sac because of tenacity
Yes!!! Tenacity is the best! 😊🤙🏾👊🏾🙏🏾
We are expecting snow today and you're putting product down
🤦🏾♂️ I feel you’re pain… I went through winter 4 months ago lol 😂 Jk manifesting some warm weather for your area brother 🙏🏾😊🤙🏾
Is it safe to use on Bermuda?
Tenacity can only be used on Bermuda that’s dormant to remove the weeds… if it’s semi dormant bleaching will occur and damage the turf is what tenacity says I have no experience working with it on Bermuda 😊🤙🏾🙏🏾🔥🔥🔥
I have sprayed tenacity on POA and it did nothing...
Yeah suppresses poa and kills crabgrass! I use prograss ec for the poa and it demolishes it! 😊🤙🏾🙏🏾🔥
Please see that the comment .33 oz is .5 tsp in very incorrect........ .33 oz is almost 2 tsp should say .09 oz is .5 tsp
Man just did this and totally forgot to add surfactant. Oh well try again in two weeks.
Oh you’re good don’t do it again it could ruin your turf! 😂😂😂👊🏾 just wait you’ll see the bleaching surfactant is only needed to stick to existing plants but I find it works with or without no worries 😊🤙🏾🙏🏾🔥
Btw, I had great results without the surfactant. I did another app 2 weeks after with the surfactant to catch anything that was left behind.
So let me get this straight, 1oz of tenacity for 1 gallon per 1000sqft
mix 0.33 ounces (0.5 teaspoon) of Tenacity Herbicide in 1 gallon of water to treat 1,000 square feet 😊🤙🏾🙌🏾🙏🏾
(?) I noticed that you said "you do this process every year"! I assume that means that this product really isn't any better or different than using most popular hose chemical weed sprayers such as ( Spectracide & Weed Stop) from the big box stores ,were they claim to kill weeds to the roots & not harm your lawn. With protection for up to 6 to 8 months or usually till the end of season ,or till the beginning of next season were it all returns again & possibly with new/ different types of weeds along with it! So technically it's not literally actually killing anything rather than only temporarily suppressing them, or chemically induced forced dormancy! & that's my experience & my overall issue & why I stopped using that style/type of herbicide we're it's not really a solution at all, rather than a commercialized rip-off were they came up with a patented Formula that makes sure you return as a loyal customer each year! (That's not the only option.) Try using a yard renovation concentrated Formula that actually kills everything both lawn & weeds to make sure your actually killing to roots permanently, & spray late winter or pre spring when only weeds or active, just before the actual lawn returns from dormancy and that my friend is a solution were it really kills only what's actively growing! they will not return and it's serves more as a yard renovation, making noticable progress each year with less appearing weeds to deal with each ears. (Note) if you do see more weed patches after the grass returns, kill it all and patch by over seeding with new grass seeds for a more permanent application!
Thank you for the info! ... but If i permanently kill the problems... I won't have any video content for everyone... 😂😂😂 Thanks for watching!!! 🙏🏾🤙🏾😊
@@YardBrah ha ha ha. Very funny. good one! I stand corrected!
1100 sf of lawn and you are doing too much. I would just hire it out
