    Q
    Can Grass Out kill all grassy weeds in my lawn EXCEPT Kentucky Blue Grass?
    My lawn is full of grassy weeds, annual bluegrass, foxtail, Quack grass, etc. If I wanted to broadcast apply something to my entire lawn, kill everything undesirable leaving only the Kentucky Bluegrass in-tact, is this the product I'm looking for?
    A

    Grass Out Max is a non selective grass killer, meaning it will kill your KGB as well.  A better option would be use Q4 for everything but the quackgrass and the poa annua. Unfortunately there is not an herbicide that would kill the quackgrass nor poa annua without damage cool season turf, such as Kentucky Bluegrass. If only a small area of the lawn is affected by the outbreak, spray only the affected area with RoundUp Quick Pro. If the problem amounts to no more than a few spears of quackgrass in an area of your lawn, paint the individual spears with diluted RoundUp QuickPro. Becareful to avoid getting the product on desirable grass. If most of the lawn has been affected by quackgrass, the only sure fire way to get rid of it is to spray the entire lawn with Roundup. Spray when the lawn is growing actively, preferably in the spring. The treatment will kill the lawn grass as well as the quackgrass. After about two weeks, you may begin the replanting.

    Q
    Can Grass Out Max (Clethodim Herbicide) be used on a Fescue lawn for treating annual bluegrass invasion?
    A

    ? Grass Out Max? is specifically designed to kill any and all grasses it is sprayed on and ONLY kill grasses. This would not be a product you would want to use over a lawn and instead you would want to go with a product that is selective in either a pre or post emergent form. Because poa annua and and fescue are so closely related, there are few products that will kill the poa annua without also harming the fescue.  The only one we are currently aware of is called Prograss. Your other options would be to either spot-treat with a Roundup-type? product and then reseed with the fescue in those areas, or you can use a preemergent like Prodiamine 65 WDG in the fall to prevent the poa from growing in the first place.

    Q
    Will Grass Out kill Zoysia that is growing in Mondo Grass and Euonymous, without harming them?
    A

    Grass Out Max (Clethodim Herbicide) would not harm ground covers like Mondograss and Euonymous when used as directed on the product label.  It is not labeled to kill zoysiagrass so we cannot recommend it for this use.  Typically a glyphosate based product would be used to control it in these areas with care being taken to avoid contact with desirables.

    Q
    Will Grass Out Max kill my rose bushes?
    Annual blue grass is invading my rose bush planters.
    A

    Grass Out Max (Clethodim Herbicide) is a great choice for killing annual blue grass (poa annua) in ornamental beds as long as the non-target plants are well established. Per the product label, be sure to use a non-ionic surfactant with at least 80% active ingredient, although crop oil surfactants are not recommended around flowers to prevent sensitivity. Please review the product label before application.  If you are only experiencing problems in planters, then you may need to examine whether weeds are coming up from the ground below them, in which case you should move and/or add a barrier under or inside the planters. Transplanting or changing the potting soil would also ensure no new growth of unwanted plants.

    Q
    Will Grass Out Max help control Poa Annua (Annual Bluegrass) in bermuda grass lawns?
    Our lawn is Tif Bermuda and has been doing well for about 10 years; we live in central Arkansas. However, I have noticed that Poa Annua grass is invading a section of our yard and nothing I do seems to control it. I have tried grannular pre-emergnts treatments in the fall and it keeps coming back. Thank you
    A

    Grass Out Max is a grass killer and would likely kill the bermuda along with the poa annua.  To target poa anuua in bermuda, you may want to consider using Certainty Herbicide instead as it will not harm the bermuda grass.

    Q
    I have a one acre plot of Ladino clover and sweet clover for My Bee's I want to kill the fesque in th plot ,
    without harming My Bee's
    A

    The Grass Out Max is labeled for controlling Tall Fescue and would be safe sprayed over the top of broadleaf plants such as clover. While the product is not an insecticide, it would be recommended to avoid spraying when bees are active or foraging, such as very early in the morning or very late at night.  We would also recommend not applying when clover is in bloom as this is when they would be most active.
