Finally! A Goosegrass Killer!!

[@hhattingh]

Thanks for sharing. We moved into new property, and it took me forever to figure out what this garbage is. Thanks for sharing

[@MJCampbellviking6]

Thanks for the great content! Do you have an update at all from your renovation? I checked your page and didn’t find one but I’m curious how your transition came out! Thanks!

[@scaryjerryman]

Thanks. I haven't uploaded in quite a while. The yard is looking good. This weed killer works great. Sometimes it takes a second treatment a couple weeks later to really get the tough grassy weeds. Thanks!

[@MJCampbellviking6]

@@scaryjerryman thanks!

[@blaiseducdaumont1280]

Very nice! You could also use a post-emergent herbicide called "Tenacity". Tenacity is a systemic herbicide with pre- and post-emergence activity on many grass and broadleaf weeds. It's a beautiful thing.

[@sebastienlinck4908]

This Image brand is often considered the "poor man's" version of Tenacity. They both work really well!

[@LSinclair]

Just another way to look at goosegrass, or “cleaver” as it’s also known: it’s completely edible!..With many more benefits than commonly cultivated greens. Those in the know intentionally protect it and harvest it before the super spiky seeds appear. The young shoots are safe to eat and very tasty raw, and id the the more mature are bothersome on your tongue, steaming or stir frying for a few minutes is all you need for a very nutritious vegetable! I’m growing mine from seed I purchased on Etsy right now. A lovely green plant in my opinion;) I know it stocks to socks, but maybe moving a few sprigs to where you want them in your veg. garden will provide you with the just variety In greens you’d love! Break off a shoot next time you pull one and see if you like it. Google it..you’ll see that it’s not only safe and edible as our ancestors knew, but sought after by many today.

The image bottles are different. For Goosegrass use the All-in-one lawn weed killer (yellow label). For nutsedge use the red label.

[@MattTigers]

I looked at a bottle of this earlier, missed the goosegrass on its label. I'm looking at tenacity (pricey!), or Bonide Sedge Ender.

[@mentonelly9540]

Thank u for da video... like da fact u did da walk through.. 👍👍🤙

[@marilynwolford1442]

I have to try this in my yard because I have been dealing with goosegrass since I bought this house in 2018.

[@LonghornsLegend]

I hate this stuff!! I have so much I had to use Roundup in some spots. Is the image nutsedge killer the same as what you're using?

[@matthewinga9546]

[@LonghornsLegend]

@@matthewinga9546 thanks man. Have a few that crept back up I wanna wipe out

[@op3crimsin]

I know I’m just doing what I ask my customers NOT to do, but I just go crazy with the dosing lol. And it works the first time. I’ll have to look at the inside label, but I love the Ortho Weed-B-Gone plus Crabgrass Control. And my lawn’s looking pretty damn good for the drought we’ve had.

[@scaryjerryman]

op3crimsin I could be doing alot more, but with dogs, it's like "eh...why?" Plus I have no neighbors to compete with haha.

[@scaryjerryman]

op3crimsin and also, yes, I think I'm going to try 5oz per gallon next time.

[@revolution3797]

Did you water it in, I watch the video where a guy said he watered it and within the seven days

[@scaryjerryman]

I don't remember the instructions saying that was necessary. Pretty sure, just like any liquid herbicide, it needs to dry on the leaves, 24 hrs before any rain. It could wash it off or dilute it.

[@revolution3797]

@@scaryjerryman right,yeah mine said to Water it in to the roots for 7 days. Did it kill what you needed done?

[@scaryjerryman]

Yep, it worked great. But now I want to see if I been doing it wrong...lol. Don't currently have a bottle. Thanks for the heads up, though!

[@revolution3797]

@@scaryjerryman well lol I bought another spray bottle after the 4th day of using the first one. This time I didn water it in. Just sprayed the top of grass. Now, before I use it. I watered my grass before so I know when I sprayed it would get down in the root system. Now the second half of the second time of buying it and spraying it. I bought triazicide insect killer I sprayed my whole front lawn. Then I followed right behind it after using it up with that grass nutsedge spray. And watered it in that way. And haven't watered it in yet.I believe it's on the second page couple paragraphs down is says water ( within 7 days). Since I use the bug spray, then the grass spray. You would think it would have got saturated pretty well. I did this at night to. It's Saturday and I won't water anyting until Monday giving it a chance to work on top and then rinsing it through

[@alstevens7060]

Also, a year later, did any of it grow back?

[@scaryjerryman]

Nope. This stuff is awesome. Great control. Might have to touch up a couple here and there thanks to my neighbors weeds blowing their seeds in my yard, 😖, but it controls everything you spray very well.

[@alstevens7060]

Thanks for the update man. I've been trying to kill this gddamn goosegrass without using roundup for the last 3 yrs to no avail. Hopefully I can find this stuff since it's no longer sold at Lowe's and HD near me.

[@juliochc]

Thanks for sharing. Hate goose grass so much

[@dustinshutson]

When using Image, how long before dogs can get on yard?

[@scaryjerryman]

After it's dry, should be fine.

[@optics6640]

I used 3 oz per gallon and the goosegrass is still green after 2 days.

[@flygirlfly]

Will this kill my fescue/Kentucky blue grass?

[@scaryjerryman]

Nope. I have the same mixture in my yard, and if you mix and apply according to the label, it will not harm the "good grass". The one thing I'd be careful of is the temperature needs to be below 90° when you apply.

[@johnkorth4048]

Use pre-emergent in a split application

[@nealginn7845]

Label says goose grass may need multiple applications.

[@scaryjerryman]

And it indeed did. After spraying a second time, two weeks after the initial application, it knocked them out totally. Should have waited a little longer to finish this video, because it definitely worked much better the 2nd time.

[@matthewinga9546]

Scaryjerryman: I did 10 days.

[@ronfinley9683]

You nailed it! This product works.

[@scaryjerryman]

Indeed, it does. 2nd year using it now, and still love this stuff!

[@Troy-Echo]

Part of the goosegrass problem and why it is around the fence and sidewalk is goosegrass likes compacted soil. It will grow in other areas if the conditions are right, but it is an indicator of compact soil. Since people cannot aerate around these sidewalks and fence lines easily, they remain a bit more compacted. Although to be honest, you're really long winded in this video. You took about 4 minutes of content and stretched it to 12 minutes, and I skipped most of it because I didn't have 12 minutes to listen. You're right though, goose grass is a real pain. I just killed and reseeded a 600 sq. ft. test patch of Rye/KBG and Tenacity will act as a pre-emergent that allows the grasses to grow, and stops a lot of weeds from germinating. It gives about 3 weeks of protection. Goosegrass is not protected as a pre-emergent, but Tenacity (Mesotrione) will kill Goosegrass after it starts to grow. Spray it as young as possible, before the 3-4 tiller stage, and it's not hard to kill. In my new seed bed, I can't spray anything yet, so I'm taking my Tanto tipped knife and just cutting it at the main root because it spreads so wide it will kill new seedlings by starving them of sunlight. Another few days and I can spray, so I'm just hand-jamming it until then. Best of luck!

[@dweaverart]

I just bought this yesterday February 29th

[@matthewinga9546]

What is the main type of grass you have? (Go Chiefs!!!)

[@scaryjerryman]

I have mostly fescue. I've been slowly mixing in some bluegrass.

[@conniesison4250]

Do you have any idea the health benefits on goosegrass? Just look it up.

[@scaryjerryman]

So I looked it up. Not seeing much science behind it. So for now, it's ugly, it's noxious in my yard, and I want it gone. So I kill it. But if studies come out that prove its claim as a miracle weed, I'll let it grow in a back corner or something. Thanks for the heads up though!

[@conniesison4250]

@@scaryjerrymantry to search some more since it's cold but don't tell anyone yet otherwise they will steal it from your yard when it grows back.

[@oscarjini]

Try not to let your dog on the herbicide sprayed lawn. Image is poisoness to humans and pets.

[@scaryjerryman]

Yep. I know I forgot to mention it in the video. My dogs were inside while I sprayed. It's fine once it dries. 👍

[@jamesfountain6183]

I used Image on sandspurs that were in my yard, I have no more sandspurs in my yard. This product kills everything

[@karbs76]

Bro your lawn looks like it is really struggling.

[@scaryjerryman]

It was. Not anymore. This video is like 3 years old.
