How to Fix an Ugly Lawn Full of Weeds with Multiple Grass Types

Learn how to fix an ugly lawn full of weeds with multiple grass types. This particular lawn has bermuda, zoysia, and st augustine grass. I am going to be applying both a pre and post emergent herbicide to the lawn for weed control. I also am going to fertilize the lawn to help the lawn recover. This yard has some shade problems which will keep it from being a beautiful lawn. My recommendation would be to add emerald zoysia sod in areas that are getting partial sunlight.

This is also where I have many other resources such as Weed Control and Fertilization Academy
Lawn Care Master Academy
Lawn Care Letters
Weed Control and Fertilization Documents including programs, pricing, etc
Mosquito video course
And more...

Here a few companies I recommend. Some links are affiliate links.

Love seeing these types of videos! That property is horrible lol! Follow-ups on the weed damage would be nice to see later on.

I been trying to start a lawn treatment business like you have. Appreciate what you do

[eltilly]

Jason, can you please please please do a video on getting rid of clumping fescue? It is running rampant out here in OK

It's hard when a customer wants a nice lawn and calls you guys up but won't or can't spend the money to do it and you guys get called every name in the book then fired. I use to have some guys that came and took care of my lawn and they got it looking much better then I even thought they could in the first year. I moved and thought I want to try doing my own lawn. The front had three BIG trees so one got cut down and the others trim. I started studying and was like wow much more to this then I thought. A few thousand dollars latter and I have the best looking yard in the block. Now yes I spent a ton of money up front but I have weed control and Fungus control that will last for a few years plus I got way more fert then I needed because I knew it was going to go up in price. TTTF so I will see how she holds up this summer but it's good and healthy now.

Nice video! Just wondering if all the herbicides mentioned are safe to use where homeowner uses well water system. Thanks!

That one definitely has a ceiling. A little surprised you took it.

I love your videos, they are very helpful. Do you know how to kill dollar weed or pennywort in zoysia grass without killing the grass. My neighbor’s yard is full of weed and last year I put too much sta green herbicide product on it and it burned my grass. So I’m using chicken manure and giving that area nutrients to grow it back.

tough yard! im always concerned to run Metsulfuron around trees. Ive got a yard that is mixed bermuda and St Aug covered up in Oxalis....got a favorite selection for a yard with both those grass types? I did round one with a 3 way, but didn't get even half of it. What Gallons per 1k were putting out of that lesco gun? pretty heavy droplet size and volume of water from what I could tell.

I know this is an old video and I never had my own company but having a truck with one 200 gallon tank, one 100 gallon and on 25 gallon tank saved me tons in these situations

I’d fill all 2 full of water. If I only needed 25 of something, I can do that many times a day. If I need 200 gallons of deep root fertilizer, I can mix once and do it.

I’ve definitely sprayed double chemical but I don’t think it’s good practice to do and frequently stresses the grasses you’re trying to keep

[swissmocha]

you use methylene urea as your slow release?

[jonathans]

I would be worried you kill the weeds and then have a big dead spot. Sometimes, I leave weeds versus dirt.

T-zone 1.2 oz to 1.5 oz (per gallon) or Per 1000 sq ft 10 to 14 days put a little surfactant to make it sticky

[hervelusadisu]

My lawn looks exactly like this lol 😆 I got it from my previous owner

[jonathans]

If you have both palisades zoysia need Bermuda, what will win in a sunny area?

[DietBajaBlast]

This looks like my old neighborhood in Pelham

[TwistedLyfofTV]

Where are you located. I've been to your website and could not figure out what state you're in

[georgegfrance]

Isn't there grass that can grow in dense shade?

[timsolomon]

Just a question, and I'm no liberal haha, but why not recommend actually seeding with more clover or rye in those shaded areas! Even rye under trees in the summer here in the south will survive the heat. Fully uniform clover actually looks really good too in yards like this, better than spraying chemicals all over the place haha.
