Sprayed Celsius and Target 6 plus and am seeing some browning on weeds but wondering if this will kill St Augustine as well. Trying to get Bermuda in its place.

Take all patch
Brown patch
Grey leaf spot
Lack of water
Chinch bugs
Frequent foot traffic
Revolver
Msma
Quinclorac
High nitrogen
Low mowing
Frequent mowing
Looking at it wrong
Telling it yo momma jokes



I’m sure I’m missing a few

Sorry you may have misunderstood my question, I’m trying to kill the st Augustine. Will Celsius and msma do it or do I need to add something to it?

I need the other way around. I am thinking about just torching the area with the bermuda and hoping only St. Aug comes back. Two end table sized patches in my front yard.

Cut it low and frequently with lots of nitrogen and the bermuda will choke out the SA.

Same here, any way to kill the Bermuda but not the St Aug. Bermuda growing into flower beds like weeds.

Not trying to derail the thread, but can bermuda choke out dallisgrass the same way? That crap is killing me.

Ronk would know I’m a SA guy who wishes he owned zoysia so I can’t really help much.

I had a single piece of Dallisgrass in my lawn that my bermuda choked out. It’s because I mowed at 1 inch every other day. That’s the only reason the bermuda won.
