It is probably your spray schedule in addition to the harsh winter last year. I have an area I don’t spray because of my dogs and the VBW was really bad last year but is very sparse this year. Chamberbitter has exploded this year

Thanks Crawdude! Appreciate the technical response.

I have seen very few, if any flowers, so I will keep an eye out and spray where I see new sprouts.

I do like my lawn cut lower, but I absolutely see the benefit of keeping it a few inches higher....will continue for sure.

I just did a heavy Celsius application

Same here. Applied mine on Saturday afternoon. Hoping to see some yellowing before Friday. Unfortunately missed an application last month and it cost me dearly. VBW ERRWHERE
