Last year I started getting a weed problem, so in the off season, I pulled every weed I could find. This year the lawn came up green and lush and I thought I had beat the Florida weeds for once. No such luck. Now I have weeds spread all over the lawn, some of which attach their seeds to our dog every time she goes out (several times a day). In the early summer I bought Weed B Gone for St. Augustine grass and applied it as directed. No obvious change. I applied it again last month. No obvious change. The weeds are thriving. I’m about to use Spectricide Lawn and Weed Killer which will kill everything, and I can lay sod on the dead areas in the spring. But before I take that drastic action, does anyone know of a product that actually works? I think plain water would work as good as Weed B Gone.
I use a produce called Q4. Mix it as directed and follow the directions about mowing and your weeds will be gone. It won't be over night but it works. It's not inexpensive but great stuff.
