I did & no problems but I can't guarantee it- If I were u I would call my County Extension agent & inquire because I'm in SE TX & I have no idea about your area. Most of the grass here is St Augustine but after I lived in MO I wanted fescue so I planted it & it has done well here

It works GREAT on tall weeds. The only place it bogs down is with thick stalks, such as greater than 1/2 inch in diameter.

A new variation adds dish detergent (1 to 2 Tbsp) to 1 gallon of 5% vinegar as a weed killer. Sprayed directly on weeds, the detergent (Dawn original, I have heard, but any brand should work, I think) allows the vinegar to stick to the leaves. Having not tried this, I wonder whether the stronger level of acid is necessary, at all. This does not work on the roots, however, so the way to kill the weed is to spray the next wave of leaves, thereby preventing photosynthesis, which creates the starch that the roots exchange for nutrients provided by the living organisms in the soil. I will be trying the 5% vinegar/detergent solution on that stubborn wad of broadleaf grass growing tall in a cinder block chamber, but after it stops raining here. I may revise my opinion about the advisability of 20% vinegar. Stay tuned. ANSWER: The vinegar will affect whatever it contacts, but if the detergent holds it to the weed, the bush roots might be safe. If the weed has broad leaves, I would suggest painting on the solution rather than hit-or-miss spraying. Again 20% may be overkill.

Yes and any grass with a tight root system like Bermuda, zoyza or centipede. I would assume it would work on other grasses but haven't tried any but the above mentioned.

I use it for weeds in my dwarf mondo grass with no problem. Not sure about anything else though.

I haven't used it for that purpose. I have just been spraying weeds on the ground. Sorry I can't answer that for you

I haven't used it in thick tall grass, probably depends on the size of child and whether its thick tall lawn grass or like a field of thick weed.

Not well at all. Dry grass is optimal. Tall standing weeds it has a problem cutting

Yes the Trimec Classic is labeled to be used on both warm and cool season grasses like Fescue for broadleaf weed control

I just waited until my grass needed mowing again. Cutting your grass higher allows for a better root system and also weakens the weeds by not allowing them enough sun light to grow.

Seems like overkill. One jug of Drive will do your size lawn 10x over. Hose sprayer, 4-5 TBsp per gallon ratio. In my sprayer I add 12 oz of Drive and 2 oz of surfactant. (Always use surfactant!) Seriously for you I would just go to Home Depot or Lowes and get a $12 bottle of crabgrass & weed killer. Save your money.

Short answer: Yes. But you should also read the label and it will list many different types of broadleaf plants. Google search "crossbow herbicide label" and download the pdf and read it. Its pretty impressive stuff.

Wasn't sure what the deal was in LA. Looked online and found that Landscapers advertised the service and Lawn Doctor's ad recommended it depending on what type of grass you have.Here on Long Island in NY I have Rye, Kentucky Blue and Tall Fescue, all of which seem to react well to the thatcher so far. The other gentleman is correct tho,be sure to use the machine on the highest setting. jc

Roundup Extended Control Concentrate may be used for spot treatment to kill individual weeds around trees and shrubs, and in flower gardens. Do not allow spray to drift to desirable plants as it will harm them. This product should only be used around well-established plants. Do not use it around the root zone of plants that are less than 6 months old.

I have used it mainly in the perennial flower bed--it works well there. I don't know how it works on weeds in the lawn.

no, i would not advise this. your tall fescue is at a week point right now. that should have been done in the fall when fescue was at its strongest and bermuda at its weakest.

It works well on all broadleaf's. Check comment on Amazon about poison ivy as to how best to apply.
