I was using hiyeild for a while but I spayed some round up this morning and was surprised how much quicker it started killing the grass. I’ve also made the homemade stuff enthusiast dish soap and vinegar before. It kills the grass quick but it seems to come back to quick

Depends on what you're trying to kill.

Celcius
Certainty
Sedgehammer
Dismiss
MSMA

If you can't kill what you have with one or combo of these I'd be surprised.

Spectracide concentrate... done the job for me for years.

I seem to recall reading on here that most of these killers contain the same active ingredient - glyphosate. It just a matter of the %’s included and the mix ratio provided in the instructions that dictates how fast they act.

I have some in the bullpen if this Image all in one doesn't take care of business on the crabgrass.

Roundup for the weeds in the landscaped areas. I let the weeds in the Bermuda die out on their own.

I’m having major issues with Dallisgrass. It’s taking over my back yard. That stuff drives me nuts.

This is what I use and it does not kill to the root like roundup. You have to reapply 3 or so times before the weed can recover and the root will eventually die from Lack of nutrients from the blades. But I rarely get the timing right on reapplications. But I also don't have a monoculture yard so it generally doesn't matter. Code enfor meant thinks my side oats gramma grass is a weed anyway.

Sethoxydim with a heavy dose of surfactant has helped me make some headway. I'm 2 applications in so far and it seems to be slowly doing the trick.

When I spray, it is to kill everything.

Tractor Supply - Amine 400 and RM43

cheap dish liquid

rock salt

dissolve rock salt in 5 gallons of water (enough rock salt that it won't all dissolve)

pour salt water into sprayer add 1 ounce each Amine 400, RM43 and dish liquid.

do not spray on a yard, this is a total vegetation control.
