[How to KILL WEEDS] in Your Lawn WITHOUT KILLING the GRASS

  • How to kill weeds in your lawn without killing the grass is a question commonly asked by lawn care enthusiasts. Weed control can be a full time job and really takes the fun out of your lawn care program. The weed control that I like best doesn't involve a weed spray or chemical like spectracide, roundup or image weed killer. The best long term weed control is to grow a healthy lawn and mow it regularly at the correct height for your grass type. This creates a natural weed control because the tight turf creates a situation where weeds have trouble competing with the lawn for the resources they need to grow.
    The best way to immediately get rid of weeds without killing the grass in your lawn is to simply pull the weeds manually. That said, chemicals can help initially kill broadleaf weeds and other lawn problems like crabgrass.
    Options for chemical weed control fall into 2 categories for application; liquid or granular. Both types of weed control products have their pros and cons. Liquid weed control products like Image weed killer or roundup work very quickly to kill weeds. The downside is that they are also much more likely to damage or even kill the grass which is what we don't want. I wouldn't use roundup on weeds within your lawn because it's a very powerful herbicide which WILL damage any grass near the weed being sprayed. Keep roundup for ornamental beds weeds growing in places like your sidewalk. Image weed killer works great for tough weeds like nutsedge but even it is hard on the nearby grass.
    Granular products like Spectracide weed control work slower than the liquid versions but it is also much safer for the lawn. When it comes to herbicides you want to use as little as necessary to kill the weeds and nothing else. Granular weed control like Spectracide also contains Dithiopyr which is a pre-emergent to prevent new weeds from growing back once they're gone. Remember all we're using Spectracide for is to buy us time to grow a healthy lawn.

    Another great video Ron. Your recommendations regarding selective and non-selective herbicides are great. I see some of the questions and responses you're getting are specific to different geographical areas. Perhaps helpful to recommend to the audience to contact their local ag extension office for help in identifying proper timing of when to apply specific products. I've found the local Master Gardeners on staff are very helpful and can also make product recommendations for my area.

    • @RonHenry
      @RonHenry  3 года назад +3

      Great point Blake. Quite often the recommendations are on the product labels but I can definitely see how local knowledge would help you make more effective herbicide applications. Thanks for pointing it out.

    Thank you Ron for a very informative video! I wished I would've watched this before applying Spectracide weed stop granules. The bag itself does not instruct recommended temperatures for when to apply and I applied it when it was 99 degrees Fahrenheit. O'well, I guess I have to wait for result to see if I have to re spread on better temperatures.

    Hi Ron. This is the second video that I'm watching. I gave a thumbs up and hit the subscribe button from the first video. Great content and love the delivery. I'm in Toronto, Ontario, Canada and the weeds were out in force this year. I like the information you provided and for full on lawn care and tackling the weeds, I'm going to try the third product you recommended. I'll see if I can get it from Home Depot first and if not, then Amazon. I was thinking to apply it in the spring; which the time they recommend putting down fertilizer. We do have fertilizer that is laid in the fall so to nourish the lawn through the winter and then early spring we fertilize again. So, what do you think? Thanks again and take care.

    • @RonHenry
      @RonHenry  2 года назад +3

      Hi Stacey. You should hopefully be able to find the products shown at your local Home Depot. They're fairly common. Something else you may want to consider is pre-emergent. It's a special herbicide that's applied twice per year (spring and fall) that prevents the weeds from germinating in the first place. I have a video here that talks about different options and how to use it. ruclips.net/video/p1sazlEXAXc/видео.html Hope this helps. Really appreciate you watching. Thanks for watching the support.

    Hey Ron, first I want to say great channel!! Perfect information for lawn care rookies like myself! I have a question, I planted blackjack bermuda seed late March, its coming in decent but I have a lot of weeds. What is your opinion on getting rid of weeds in the lawn for new grass? Will it damage immature bermuda?

    • @RonHenry
      @RonHenry  4 года назад +6

      Heya Julian. Given that you've recently made the investment in planting new Bermuda, I'd do my best to keep herbicides off the turf. Once the new grass is fully established, you can use Spectracide but until then, I'd just weed manually. I know it's a huge pain, but it's the safest option for the turf. It's what I did for my lawn when I overseeded. Assuming you don't already have one, grab one of those weeding tools from your local Home Depot or on Amazon: amzn.to/3fdeCqG Thanks so much for the kind words about the channel. Glad that you find the content helpful. Be sure to let me know if I can help with anything. Can message me here or ron@ron-henry.com

      Hi Mgz_ Once you kill the weeds, just start mowing your lawn regularly. That will get rid of the dead weeds and also stimulate new growth in the grass.

      So happy that you found it useful Owens Home. What you experienced is pretty common. Bare soil mixed with sunlight is great for growing grass but unfortunately also great for weeds. You can spot treat them while you wait for the lawn to get fully established. I'd go light on any herbicides until you're confident the grass is in great shape. Let me know if I can help with anything else. I also have a recent video covering another herbicide option: ruclips.net/video/nzkpNlsKIro/видео.html Appreciate you watching sir.

    Great video, Ron! I’ve recently used Image on my lawn as I’m just getting a good Bermuda lawn established. I’ve noticed some discoloration as you noted in the video. I’m curious how long this discoloration will last? Is this something I can mitigate with proper fertilization? Thanks. Take care!

    • @RonHenry
      @RonHenry  4 года назад +2

      Heya Bailey. It will last about 1 week assuming that your turf is healthy. I hate that particular side effect of Image but the product really does work great against nutsedge. The big thing is to not over apply the product. Literally all you need is one pass over the nutsedge. No need to soak the area. Using a liquid fertilizer will probably help the lawn recover a bit faster. Granular takes longer to break down so by the time it starts working your turf will like have recovered anyways. A good liquid option is this: amzn.to/2WRaPrI It's very similar to Brandt Supreme Green product I apply in this video: ruclips.net/video/uedc-v-lnbY/видео.html Let me know if I can help with anything else! 😎👍

    Hi Ron. I laid down a couple bags of spectracide Recently in my lawn to help with a crabgrass problem. The bag mentioned not being able to lay grass seed for 10 weeks. How soon have you tried to plant grass seed after using Spectracide. Your videos are really helpful. Thanks a lot!

    • @RonHenry
      @RonHenry  3 года назад +3

      Heya Ryan. I would really wait the 10 weeks on the grass seed. Depending on which type of grass seed you're putting down it probably represents several hundred dollars. If you spread it before the 10 weeks is up, you'll likely get some germination but not as good as if you'd waited. If you want to still give it a go, I'd recommend doing a really good aeration of the lawn prior to spreading the seed. This will damage the pre-emergent barrier making it less effective against preventing germination. Does that make sense?

    • @spchief
      @spchief 3 года назад +1

      That does make sense. I bought some Arden 15 seeds that I hoped to plant this year but I think 10 weeks probably takes me completely out of season for growing new grass. Is there anything that you recommend that I can do in the meantime that might be helpful for growing new grass using seed next year?

    • @RonHenry
      @RonHenry  3 года назад +2

      Hi Ryan, I'd work on getting the soil as healthy as possible. So do a soil test assuming you haven't as yet and make the amendments to get the soil into primo shape. www.mysoiltesting.com/shop?aff=11 Again, you *can* overseed this year but I'd be sure to aerate heavily before doing so in order to make the pre emergent less effective. 👍😎

    • @RonHenry
      @RonHenry  2 года назад +6

      Hi Arie. Yes, the liquid concentrates work well while not having to apply to wet grass like the granular. If getting rid of existing weeds is your main goal, I'd go with liquid vs granular. An alternative to Spectracide that's professional strength is this product: golfcourselawn.store/products/broadleaf-weed-control-triad-select-3-way-herbicide Hope this helps.

    P.S. I have an huge area on my driveway in the backyard that has been taken over by all different types of weeds (even those prickly ones) after the tree next door at a rental until has been cut down last year. This year the weeds have spread almost the entire width and I am about to use a weed puller and dig them up completely. I was gonna use a weed killer that last up to a year, but I don't want birds and squirrels to become sick and die from coming in contact with the area, so I was thinking of going the homemade vinegar and soap method and then pin down a heavy duty landscape weed barrier to hopefully help keep them from regrowing. Any tips at how to kill these off permanently? Or do you think because the tree stump is still there, the weeds will just continue to return every season?
