    Q
    Will Fertilome Over the Top II Grass Killer affect my recently planted Zenith Zoysia lawn?
    The grass seedlings are ~1" tall, growing slowly (as expected) but getting crowded out, mainly from purslane, nutsedge, chickweed and wild violets.
    A

    Fertilome Over the Top II Grass Killer will harm zoysia grass as it is a grass killer.  It will not affect broadleaf weeds such as purslane, chickweed, wild violets, or nutsedge.  A better option would be Blindside, which is labeled for those target weeds.  You must wait 1 month to apply after seeding.

  • Asked by Edie from Sc
    06/25/2012
    Q
    How long before the treated Bermuda grass turns brown when using Fertilome Over the Top?
    A
    According to the Fertilome Over The Top product label: Younger, actively growing seedling weeds are more easily killed than older, mature, well-established grassy weeds which may require a repeat application for control. The addition of a surfactant will help control grasses. Growth of treated grasses stops soon after application. They turn yellow and die within one to three weeks depending on the grass species, stage of growth and weather conditions. Cool weather, drought and heat stress slows
    activity.

    Fertilome Over the Top II Grass Killer can be used on and around strawberry plants but it can only be used once per season. Sevin Concentrate is labeled for many types of beetles, including the Colorado potato beetle and is labeled for use on strawberry plants.

    Q
    Is Over the Top II safe and effective to use to kill grasses in a clover food plot?
    A
    We think Over the Top II would work for removing grassy weeds from clover but since clover is not listed on the product label we cannot recommend the product for this use. Fusilade II would be a great option. It has clover on the “safe to apply over the top of” label and takes care of a variety of grassy weeds
