I do still use them. Bruce's son Tyler now runs the business->


I actually used Roundup on those patches of Poa Trivianis. I should have done it 2 years ago, but now I have a half dozen patches. I didn't want to let it go any more. That stuff is VICIOUS and will take over the entire yard if you let it.. It's also known as "rough Bluegrass", and does dormant in the heat of the summer.

If you have THAT you really DO need to Roundup it in spring. By fall, you will kill what is left, but it is dormant and it will come back strong next year. If you have it, it is lime green and has thin stems. Looks like it might be an OK lawn, but it doesn't sit up well and goes dormant (it also kills the more desirable grass).

I have let it take over my back yard and will kill the whole backyard next spring and start over. If you get it now, and keep on the lookout for it every spring, you can "control" it's spread Let it go too long and it WILL take over.It is VISCOUS.

If that sounds like too much info, read some of the things on the link..some of these guys are landscapers, and NONE of them have anything good to say about it..

Hope this is helpful and i HOPE you have a DIFFERENT kind of the million types of weed grass
