Hello, I've settled on Simazine for the fall pre emergent based on the LSU water runoff article.

Should I mix anything else with it besides surfactant when applying to get better results from the same application?

I'm in Covington with Centipede if that helps.

You certainly don't have to but I never like to waste a trip..

Would be a good time to add some fungicide depending on what kind of lawn you have.

Maybe some MSM or a 3 way if you have any broadleaves up.

Give me some more detail

Thanks GC, I have 2 main existing weeds and appreciate the help not wasting a trip.

Also, wanted to mention that I have Atrazine and Image, but can get anything else you recommend. It's about 14K sqft and I'll use a backpack pump sprayer.

Here are the pics: [/img]

Unless I am missing a picture there is no buttonweed. Kyllinga in the first pic and lespedeza in the bottom pic. Backpack your simazine. Then spot treat with Celsius

CenlaLowel and ronk, thanks for the reply. I'm always impressed with the responses from ya'll, crawdude and GC.

I don't know what the second pic is. It looks like small clover patches and those small pink flowers just started on them. I'll go looking around to see if I can identify it.

Second pic is lespedeza like ronk said. Do the Celsius now on both weeds. I’d start in late April with MSM to kill the lespedeza. If we have a late winter, don’t spray MSM on your centipede until it has greened up for a couple weeks.

Thanks everyone, it looks like I have a plan.

Simazine in the backpack soon and possibly a fungicide.

Spot treat with Celsius now.

Late April (or green centipede for a couple weeks) MSM.
