This video was very informative and well done. I just subscribed because of it. I am also dealing with Bermuda in my cool season lawn.

Thank you for your video. I have the same problem and one person suggested to fertilize before applying a bermuda suppressor. Although it sounds contradictory he said it would help a lot better with foliar absorption.

[@fomas8190]

i didnt see results until my second app it did come back the following year , to kill it you need roundup and even then it will still take more then one app bottom line to kill it for good you need round up and you will need more then one app to do it

[@kennethsmith3073]

how you thought about mixing it with a surfactant or lil dish soap or baby shampoo. its supposed to help better leaf coverage. i put down some tenacity seeing if it will kill it. i might make a vedio if it works

[@ntnsty]

Yep, the BioAdvance control basically does not work. Applied it twice and the Bermuda mocks it and me.

Well done video👍Was curious how your lawn is doing this year? Wanted to let you know that Ortho chickweed, clover and oxalis killer has Triclopyr in it.

[@ourbackyard1360]

Thanks for the feedback. So far the common bermuda is gone, however, that is because I had to start all over due to a pythium blight outbreak. 😬 Tenacity and Turflon Ester mixed together worked really well to suppress the common bermuda before I completed the restoration.

Ornamec 170 and tenacity are what i use once or twice every spring and fall.

[@crand20033]

More expensive so why is it worth the extra money?

[@BlueSky-hi2ib]

@@crand20033 The bottom line with Tenacity is it just works. So Tenacity is the name brand but the chemical is Mesotrione. Amazon sells some called Torocity for a bit less, same thing, but I would argue the best way to try it out is Scotts makes a starter fertilizer labeled as triple action which has Tenacity mixed into it, about the only way you can get it in granule form. Goes for about $35, you just want to apply it when the grass blades are wet so the granules stick and absorb. I can't rave enough about this stuff though, if you want a weed free lawn, 2-4D and Tenacity your main weapons.

@@BlueSky-hi2ib I called Scotts and asked if they had something with will prevent bermudagrass and they said they didn't have anything. Now I see that they do. Those phone operators are ignorant.

Thanks so much for this video! I bought my grill around 10 years ago and almost tossed it when I found out the valve/regulator assembly was about 2/3 what I originally paid for the grill....but then I noticed that a similar grill is now going for twice as much as I paid for it 10 years ago. I took it apart, cleaned everything and changed the regulator. Hoping to get another 10 years of use out of it! :)

When you break down the price per 1000, Pylex isn't that expensive,$3.96 per 1000 at the highest application rate. That is about $20 for a 5000 sq.ft. lawn. Your Bioadvanced is costing $29 for a 5000 sq.ft. lawn, it is more expensive.

[@JEK]

if only we could buy a tiny bottle for $20 5000sq app.

[@BigBrotherIsTooBig]

@@JEK If you're going to stay in your home for a few years, think of it as a long term investment where you save $10 per treatment. Over the course of a few seasons you have already have saved enough to offset the cost.

[@flexapex9801]

I sprinkle baking soda on Bermuda it takes care of it

[@ezzathanna1]

No Triclopyr that killed my grass , it is so bad. Fusillade is a bit lighter on grass.

[@amcqq91]

I same product no good result as well

[@triplethreat9168]

Can this be used on Bermuda growing in zoysia ?

[@CCCC-tq8yo]

No

[@leskobrandon538]

I've seen Bermuda stolens as far down as 3ft in the dirt

[@crand20033]

'Solens'? Yes, that weed steals the beauty of your tall fescue lawn.

[@temikeable]

This did not work at all for me. The only thing that will kill Bermuda is round up. If this worked the company would be the richest on earth

[@dthorne4602]

only roundup, extreme drought/heat can really kill bermuda. It's the shittiest plant ever.

[@crand20033]

What about Ornamec.

[@kyjoe3403]

@@crand20033 I tried ornamec and it killed most of my fescue lawn, some of the bermuda went brown but came right back.
