Hardest lawn weeds to control

What’s your toughest weeds to get under control? I seem to have the biggest issues with button weed and dollar weed. Just spayed some MSM Turf and will probably repeat it it a month or so.

MSM works very well on VBW. Hit it at least twice for best results.
I struggle most with that and Dallis grass.

3/4 acre Bermuda lawn. I have had nearly 100 spots of VBW that I have sprayed this year. Celsius is my go to, but I also noticed that Image did a decent job of knocking it back. Woodsorrel has decided to join the party now and I sprayed with Celsius last week. Nutsedge is also a problem, but the wife has told me not to do anything about it since she doesn't want yellow spots in our yard for a baby shower that is in a few weeks so its running wild. At least its green and somewhat looks like grass.

I had it really bad last summer and didn’t spray until late summer, and pretty sure I just sprayed once. Most of what I read says if you want to have any chance to control it to spray early spring.
My plan to to spray again in a few weeks, then maybe hit it with milorganite a few weeks after

Your hardest weeds to control are always going to be the grassy variety. Most of the time whatever damages them will also damage your real grass. Dallisgrass, little barley, common bermuda, torpedo grass, and king ranch blue stem.

Dallisgrass and Torpedograss. I picture satan himself watering a lawn of both of these in hell smiling with pride.

dallisgrass is the worst.
I nuked each individual pod last year and my yard looked like a dalmation of brown spots amongst otherwise st augustine filled paradise.

How frequently do you apply this? 4-6 weeks?

Yeah, kinda what mine is looking like now.
Although, I still have plenty of dallis. CauseI didn't want to do too much damage. I figured, a little at a time.

I'm doing a little bit at a time also. Got a spray bottle with roundup and spray as little as possible to minimize damage to the surrounding grass.

Lespedeza
I can't seem to eradicate this bitch. I hand pull a lot cause it aggravates my eye when it forms patches in my lawn. Preemergent must not work well on this weed, cause I apply Dimension 2EW twice a year.

I haven't done a blanket application of Celsius this year, but when I notice some VBW come up I'll spot spray. Then check back in about 10-14 days and hit it again if its not knocked out.
Can't afford to blanket spray

Msm and Celsius in combination will usually wipe it out on the first go round.
