  • Asked by Deepak from Grapevine, Tx

    Q
    My St Augustine lawn is overrun with Oxalis weeds. What is the best pre and post emergent herbicide?
    The above problem is particularly prevalent in shaded areas where the grass is relatively weak. How good is Speedzone southern versus something like Trimex Southern?
    A
    In order for us to find a specific product for you, can you please tell us if your St Augustine lawn is Floratam or Bitterblue? These two particular species of turf are extremely sensitive and the products that can be safely used on these versions of St Agustine are going to be very limited. We do not want to recommend the wrong product to you that might hurt your lawn while it kills the oxalis. Also do you know about how much area you are trying to cover? Once we have this information we can better give you the best recommendation.

  • Asked by Keith from Greenville
    06/07/2016
    Q
    What effects will Speedzone Southern Herbicide have on freshly mowed grass?
    A

    The application of any herbicide can stress your desirable turf. Since mowing also stressed the turf and weeds, it is best to wait at least 2 days after mowing to apply Speedzone Southern Herbicide or any other similar products so that both the target weeds and the desirable turf will behave desirably to the application. Healthier turf is less likely to be damaged, and weeds that are not under stress from mowing (or drought, etc.) will accept herbicides more readily.

  • Asked by Craig from Clewiston, Florida
    11/17/2013
    Q
    I want to start a lawn program which includes insecticide/fungicide/fert and weed control on st Augustine fl
    What products do I need? I have a company doing it now, buts it's expensive, trying to do it myself
    A
    In a St. Augustine lawn you can use Speedzone Southern Herbicide for your weed control. As a fungicide, Eagle 20EW is an excellent choice. To control insects, some popular lawn applications are Talstar P or Talstar XTRA Granules. We do also carry some fertilizers; however as they are newer to our inventory, that is not our area of expertise. You can always contact your local cooperative extension office and talk to the master gardener in your area for recommendations.

  • Asked by David from Lakeland, Fl
    04/15/2014
    Q
    Will SpeedZone Southern effectively kill stinging nettle?
    A

    SpeedZone Southern is not labeled to control stinging nettle, because of the way the plant grows there really isn't anything labeled for it.  Stinging nettle is typically best removed by hand, taking care to protect skin with gloves and other appropriate attire. Be sure to completely remove the underground rhizomes or it will continue to come back. Close mowing or weed whacking can retard growth as well.

    While we do not have a product labeled for stinging nettle we do carry Gallery which has an active ingredient, Isoxaben, that has been shown to be effect.

    Q
    Will Speed Zone Southern Herbicide hurt rose bushes?
    I have Bermuda grass growing around my rose bushes that I would like to kill, but I don't want to harm my flowers.
    A

    Speedzone Southern Herbicide is safe to use on bermudagrass, so it will not kill it.

    A better option is Fertilome Over the Top II. It is labeled to kill bermudagrass and can be used over flowers, listed shrubs, etc. We would also recommend using a surfactant with the product as well.

  • Asked by Karl from Los Angeles
    08/17/2018
    Q
    Does SpeedZone Southern Herbicide work on dallisgrass (Paspalum dilatatum)?
    A

    SpeedZone Southern is not labeled to treat dallisgrass.  Dismiss NXT Herbicide is labeled to suppress dallisgrass, meaning that you will need multiple applications and/or other cultural or chemical treatments to completely eradicate the weed. Dallisgrass is a weed that is notoriously difficult to eradicate quickly once it is established. We would also recommend you use Dimension 2EW as a pre-emergent for dallisgrass.

    Apply Dismiss NXT Herbicide at the rate of 0.117 to 0.350 fl oz./1,000 sq. ft. in however much water it takes you to cover the area.  You may need to retreat 4 weeks after the first treatment

  • Asked by George from Richmond, Va
    03/29/2017
    Q
    How long should I wait to spray SpeedZone Southern after I apply my pre-emergent?
    A

    Since SpeedZone Southern Herbicide is a post-emergent herbicide you can use it any time there are actively growing weeds in accordance with the product label without having it affect your pre-emergent application. You would not use if you do not have any existing weeds that you need to kill. Be sure your turfgrass is well-established and not under stress from drought or heat when using any post-emergents.
