Is now a good time to toss some seed down?

Any broadleaf weed killer will work great right now , temps are perfect for a good kill.

I didn't put pre emergent out and my yard is covered in these weeds. Anything to put out at this point?

Cool. A friend needs to spray something, but he's on 8 acres. As you can imagine, spot treating is out of the question.

I used Pastora in my hay pasture last year. I was pleased with the results and will use it again. This will do about 5 acres:

I could use soneone to come spray MSMA on my lawn right now. I've got True Green but they can't use the stuff. My yard has been getting worse with blue grass and I need it killed.

certainty or sedge killer will work, revolver is the best but expensive and tru green can kill it, tribute will kill it and pretty much all other weeds, lots of products that will work. check with lesco , bwi or ewing

Pretty much this! Except my Bermuda is already going fucking nuts.

Yep, it was warm enough for a long enough period of time for my yards to start greening up.

Too cold to spray MSMA right now. Needs 80-90 degrees. Your bermuda won't be growing till soil hits the 80's either.

Can you broadcast spray msma or is it spot treat only?

Yes. Expect the lawn to stress a bit, but it will green back up. If I had the ability to spray from a boom on a 4 wheeler, that is how I would be treating my yard because it is so bad

For you do it yourself folks, if you have Bermuda, the best thing to kill weeds is MSMA..It's not labeled for residential use anymore so you can't buy it off the shelf.. BUT, if I was wanting some, I bet a fella could find some on craigslist...

I have a large yard and would like decent grass, but so far no luck. Just weeds. Fuck.

Thinking about hiring someone to spray a pre emergent, but no clue what I'm doing. I probably should have done it last fall, but missed the boat on that.

Starting last year would have been the way to go... but you can still get after it now. As I've said before, I pay trugreen so that if and when I see A WEED I can call them and tell them to come kill it. I pay the $50 ish per visit, so in between I make them come out as much as I need them to in order to stay ahead of it.
