St augustine, kill paspalum and fescue
Posted: February 19th, 2020, 1:24 pm
Hi all.
Last year I threw some st augustine plugs into my front yard wanting to see how well they’d do. The front yard is a mix of fescue and paspalum (that grows everywhere in our area like a weed).
The st augustine plugs did well but didn’t spread much as I hoped they would. The paspalum was just too thick and vigorous in the summer I suppose.
This year I plan to plug the whole area. Is there a herbicide that will target just the fescue and paspalum? I’d like to save the existing st augustine plugs if possible. Would atrazine (google is giving me conflicting answers on what it will kill)? Or is glyphosate everything the only way?
Thanks in advance.
