I poisoned with 2,4D a couple of weeks ago and since then it's been looking worse and worse... At first broadleafs were all dying then after that Bermuda and st. Aug started dying along with it.... It looks AWFUL. How do I fix this and what would've caused it??




A close up of one of the bad spots...





Left side was not sprayed, right side was.




St. Aug close up

Well shite. I was headed out to get some 2-4D for clover patches in a few minutes. Now I will reconsider.

PS: My yard looks turrible also. Clovers, winter rye growing, spots in my centipede, etc. I sodded the whole yard less than 2 years ago.

u rich folks just need to let nature take its course, mow it for a month or two and its all gone. never lose the green, may be clovers and crap but it will eventually die out on it's own.
sorry bout your lawn though my friend, sucks when you trying make something look nice and you get the complete opposite of that.

What's happening? Over application I would assume. You probably still had a ton of dormant grass, hopefully a few weeks will show some life. Good luck.

1. St Aug does not like 24D

2. When you kill weeds there will be a blank spot left where the weeds were until the turf grows over the spot

3. The left side that was not sprayed looks like poa annua(weed)

Spray the weeds before they get big next time. Keep watered properly and fertilize. With a little warm weather it will grow back.

In Florida, I would say you have Chinch bugs. I'm not sure if you have them in Louisiana or not.
