Usually by now one application of Bonus S has the winter weeds gone and dollar weeds are dying. St. Aug is barely growing in...guess I'm putting down another application of Bonus S?

Mine's not doing too well either, but I'm just being grateful for the fact that it's March and I haven't had to mow even once.

Mine looks like crap too. I think it is just the weather. When my dog rolls around on half of my yard, it is good, the other half he gets up with brown grass all over him

Lots of rain, cold weather, not a lot of sun = shitty yard

Just bought a home... looks just like yours golfer. i sprayed a pre-emergent and didn't realize it about a week ago. i just sprayed a post emergent. hope i didn't frick shite up, but oh well.
I pruned oak trees and swept up 4 bags of leaves and those little squiggly things from the cypress tree. That i am pretty pumped about, have a cypress tree about 40ft tall in the back yard.

Mine does, but I made a lot of headway on it today. I mowed for the first time and sprayed the yard for a good hour. It actually felt great outside working in the yard again.

The calendar is out the window. Been too cold for too long. Probably a month behind normal schedule.

My yard sucks too

My grass is starting to come in, but my bushes are all dead in the back.

Mine has looked like shite since those hard freezes we had... Still spotty and spongelike in the back.

yeah mine looks especially shitty

the area by the house is still dormant because it is good, thick grass

but the area closer to the road is my trouble area, and it is just almost completely taken over with sage grass this year

no idea how to get rid of it

Put the Bonus S down yesterday with the hopes of the 80% chance of rain.

Finishing watering it in now.

I'd look into doing a low bed and some thick shade ground cover. Never have to worry about it after that.

another application of Bonus S?
Just repeated this morning after 2-1/2 weeks of no progress from 1st application.

Go for it!
