Mike from Virginia Beach, Va writes

Bermuda Grass in Fescue has occurred years before & a year after killing entire yard to left dead for a month.

Bermuda is more apparent in growth during summer till the end of the year. So much, the areas with Bermuda must be mowed higher than rest of Fescue yard, otherwise, it clogs the mower & leaves the yard top color yellowish. In Winter, only a few feet is yellow (color when Bermuda is dormant) as overseeeding with fescue too it back over. Question: Is there a faster method to spray this product instead of using 1-gallon tank on bermunda/fescue combination in a section that is 12ftX16ft? Also, if using a 1-gallon, do I spray area with a very slow pass through or spray for half-second to 2 seconds before spray moves along? Thanks

Answer:

Monterey Turflon Ester Herbicide is best applied to bermuda in the spring when it is just starting to green up and it can take multiple applications.  It should be applied just until the bermudagrass is wet.  For such a small area the 1 gallon would be the easiest way to apply. Apply TURFLON ESTER at the rate of 3/4 fl. oz. per 1,000 sq. ft. in enough water to provide uniform coverage of the target area. Three to four additional applications at 4 week intervals are required for adequate suppression of bermudagrass and allow fescue or other desired turfgrass species to dominate
