Commenting for the algorithm. I LOVVVEE these identification videos. They're packed with information with no fluff.
Thank you!!!
i am a novice, so i contracted a lawn care professional two years ago and as of the end of summer my yard was a mess. Thanks to your videos i identified crabgrass, Virginia button weed, and goose grass all over my yard. He was a waste of money so I kissed the lawn specialist good bye, and going to try lawn care myself. So far I did pre-emergent in the fall and again this February. I may not be any better at this but will use your videos as a guide this summer. Wish you were in the New Bern NC area, but thanks for your great informative videos.
I used to eat that no. 3 weed oxalis when I was a kid. We called it sour grass . And it was!
Yes I chewed it to. It was a country thing to do.
I live in Chicago area and it is hot. Never before have I had white clover and I didn't know what it was. Thanks to you, I know and now I can act. Great video.
could you also identify grass, im not sure my lawn has any.
I absolutely adore these videos. They supply so much information on a broad spectrum of weeds and you're very good giving useful information on the individual types.
Thank you
Thank you very much! It was most useful for me. We moved to a house with a yard and I am very hesitant to pull out the plants which I don't know anything about. It's always a guessing game with lots of doubts and anxiety. I installed some weed identification applications but your video is better.
Very helpful video for us amateurs! I took screen shots of the most common ones and compiled them into one photo list so i can look them up in my yard!
Getting to know each one of these weeds on a deep level makes me wanna plant them in pots and take care of them as house plants now.
Great video Jason. The most helpful identification video I've ever seen was your's a few years ago identifying seed heads. Really helped me to identify different grassy weeds and eliminate them from my zoysia/bermuda lawn. Keep it up.
I love plant/weed ID videos, I can watch them all day
Did you shoot this video in my backyard? I probably have 25 out of 30 of these weeds. Thank you so much for making this easy to understand. My nemesis is the nutsedge and crabgrass.
I was thinking the same thing. Sheesh I got probably half of these in my yard.
We’re 3.5 years new to lower mid TN, and I don’t think we have one blade of actual grass on our entire 6 acres! Field madder and white clover is so prolific here. We also have ragweed, a wild berry on a woody vine, a broadleaf thistle with a crazy long taproot … I do harvest the dandelions, plantain, and henbit. Thank you for a great identification video!
We had cows for 4 years and they ate unsprayed hay. I have every weed known in Missouri. The chickens and bees like the early clover and purple clover, not to mention the purple dead nettle. I have to try and co-exist! It's green and we cut it. That's about all we can do. It's about 1/3 acre outside of town.
I've had good results controlling Dichondra with Celsius and halosulfuron-methyl (SedgeHammer). I believe the Paspalum you showed was Thin Paspalum, Dallis Grass is actually a member of the Paspalum family. While I've had good results controlling Thin Paspalum with Celsius and halosulfuron-methyl, what I believe is Dallis Grass seems to be unaffected by the same combo.
Great video, keep them coming!
Great video! Thank you.
I dig up Dallisgrass, flip it over to bury it and let desired grasses grow over the spot.
(In addition to Prodiamine 65 and Trimec Southern.). Bermudagrass lawn, about an hour south of Birmingham.
Dallisgrass is terrible
Thank you. This is very very useful information for novice yard owners like me..
Man I would love if you timestamped this video for each weed, as I try to ID mine and then find products (retail or pro) to address them in the best combination possible in regards to cost&effectiveness. REGARDLESS! This is an extremely helpful vid like many of yours.
Thank goodness! Thank you. Now I know I have a broadleaf problem!!!
I good book for identifying weeds and grasses is "Weeds of Southern Turfgrasses" lots of pic
Very helpful identifications
Thank you for the video I'm just getting into the weed control and lawn business and I feel lost trying to learn all these. So far I can deal with the nuts edge and crab grass but other than that this is tough to learn
“A weed is simply an unwanted plant” 👍🏼👍🏼
This video is exactly what I've been looking for. I haven't found another one like it. Thanks!
Three weeds we deal with in northern Ohio are Star of Bethlehem (looks like a crocus plant, produces a bulb), Wild Garlic Mustard (lives two seasons and puts out thousands of seeds it’s second year-biannual), and Bittercress (small, clump like weed with small, uniform leaves). Ve had success getting rid f them using Speed Zone in early spring.
Great Information.
Among winter annuals, I have huge amounts of henbit, wild geranium and vetch. I don't worry as much about the annuals, but the vetch is about to drive me crazy.
Try "Over the Top" for Torpedo Grass, if it gets in your bushes. Designed to not hurt the bushes. I have to apply a couple times. Usually have to apply a couple times year, as it will come back.
Thank you. I have not heard of that product
Thanks for the video. I think I’m dealing with nutsedge at the moment in my newly seeded lawn.
I love your weed identification videos.
Good video Jason.
Dichondra is what we call marsh marigold. It has pretty yellow flowers and does back in the heat. It has a bulb as its root system.
Very helpful - many thanks! For me the sound cut out between 19 and 20 mins.
Wow, Dallas grass is really something to state the least.
I’m going to follow what by you have stated…
It's late January here in upstate SC, I have a centipede yard, I have a lot of henbit that has come up in my grass and also my azalea bed and rose bed, What can I spray it with that won't harm my bed of azaleas and roses or the dormant centipede? You have a great channel... have been watching your videos for several years.Thanks for the great content
Very good information thanks
thanks!
I used a old fashioned, reusable, hose end sprayer with Ortho weed b gone yesterday.
I have TORPEDO grass. It was brought into my yard with new topsoil delivered. Driving me crazy!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Very good sir Praise Him ♥️♥️♥️
I thought sedge was the shoots or grass that grow right after mowing. I have cool season grass and it's the only real problem so far. What do I kill this weed with? I sprayed quinclorac with not much luck.
We have a weed that is a plague in Ca. it has a tap root, appr. 8 stems that come off of it.
Little yellow flowers and stickers. If you mow over it it will spread, I have seen entire yards fulling infested. I have spent 3 years hand picking it.
We've had marsh parsley popping up and taking root lately in the Texas Panhandle.
thanks for sharing
Definitely dichondra. Celsius will suppress it. Mansion with spectacle flo in the spring will keep it gone as long as the area is irradiated properly.
Thank you
Unfortunately, I didnt see the one im looking for addressed. It grows incredibly fast, it is stick straight with no leaves on the stem and a very small football shaped cone that measures maybe a half an inch and has some small things coming out of the bottom of the cone where it is attached to the stem. I can mow my lawn and in just a couple days, despite the grass being short, these weeds are mid-calf. I would love to know what these things are. The stem is not hallow like a dandelion, it is solid but incredibly thin.
At 17:43 Pennywort is a different leaf--circular (unbroken) with the stem in the center. On the video Dichondra "The kidney-shaped to nearly circular leaves grow alternate to each other, sometimes appearing whorled on the stems." Nearly circular is the important difference. Thanks google. How about controlling with the strong vinegar 60% or 90% at the garden nursery; vs the 3% vinegar from the grocery store? It works well on Buttercup--nothing works on Bishops Weed/Gout Weed. FYI--Pet owners: The Foxtail grass seed can get in animal's skin and work it's way into their internal organs. Google info. FYI: 19:07 - 19:47 (no sound).
So glad we’re having a conference… can’t wait brother.
Should be a good time. Good to hear from you
Good stuff Jason.
I’ve got a pretty large bare spot in zone 9, that’s overtaken with grassy weeds. Do you think trying to seed this fall around late September with Bermuda/centipede mix to fill these spots in over putting down a fall pre emergent?
The best preemergent is a propane torch.
I have torpedo in my back Bermuda lawn. Fusillade is prescribed, but kills the Bermuda. Quinclorac will supress it better than anything else without damaging Bermuda, as far as I know.
Could you identify what we see at 19:27? The audio went silent shortly after 19 minutes in, and this plant was not identified. Thanks!
At 20:00 it’s identified as cudweed. Thanks for a great video!
OG KUSH!
Good stuff!
So what do you use to kill these lawn weeds?
Thanks again
Great video! I've got all of the cool season weeds you showed plus some. 😢
Embrace the weeds. My ' lawn' is green and varied. No watering or chemicals. And if I delay mowing a couple of days, there is a snowy carpet of white clover blooms.
Bonus, I have ready access to salad material and herbal teas
embrace the turf grass
Yeah, I was thinking 25 was either Dichondra or Dollarweed (Pennywort). From my research, Atrazine is good on both, but my understanding is Atrazine can't be used on Bermuda or Fescue, so that's a lot of us. 2,4-D, Dicamba and Mecroprop-P (or as I like to call it, The Bubba Mix), is the "useable" mix, but that's pretty much the mix for any weed. Oh, and of course "a dense stand of turf."
Thank you. I'm not sure I know the difference between dichondra and pennywort but I agree with you
QUESTIONs: what about using a weed torch? will a weed permanently die after having its leaves repeatedly burned off?
Torch will usually kill off a weed in the reproductive phase in its life, but that is often too late to be trying to kill a weed. Most often you will want something that will take the roots out (pulling, chemical). This is especially true for biennials, and perennials that activly store nutrients and energy in the roots prepareing to over-winter. Annuals are most likley to suffer, but even they can be tough to stop on the first pass. Burning will absolutly slow and stunt them, but many weeds will send up another shoot in a week or two.
Some will.
I'm still trying to learn to identify grassy weeds, does Dallis Grass produce a seed head? If so, can you include it in a future video? Excellent video, keep them coming!
Yes it has a seed head. Paspalum family of weed.
Yes
How do you kill broomsedge?
Hello, very informative channel.
Sending this message from Canada
I have two methods of weed control.
Dig them out ,
Or pour 1 ounce of vinegar directly into the centre, Use a one dollar spray bottle and spray vinegar on the leaves.
Thoughts anyone ?
The US is a lot different than Canada.
Any of the weed applications you buy from the big box stores are very expensive compared to a 2 L jug of vinegar, That’s why I use vinegar
I imagine there are a lot more regulations in Canada
Yes, 100%
For example, if I want to buy round up from Home Depot, I have to get ID ask a ton of questions about where it’s gonna be used.
If they don’t your answers, they won’t sell it to you.
That is normal weed killing chemicals that you use are heavily regulated.
In some instances, I agree, but mostly I don’t
Plus when I go online and look at the same weed control That I see in US channels, In Canada, the same thing will be double or triple the price
17:30 is dichondra… celcius works and atrazine
I live in Minnesota. Not much of these weeds are in my lawn .
Have a bare yard in Zone 9b woth a lot of Dallis grass and crabgrass. Temperwtures are always above 70.
Is it recommended to mow down and bag? Or when should I apply pre-emergent?
I literally have every single one of these weeds in my lawn. Right now the Spurweed is everywhere. I aerated and resowed Bermuda grass, but, with all the weeds, I'm thinking I may be better off just to kill everything a start over from scratch. Any suggestions for SE Georgia area?
I have a weed I don’t think was on the list. Mine is a reddish brown color. It’s clover shape. I’ve never seen it before until last year. It’s popping up everywhere like the base of my vegetable bed and between my landscape rocks. Any ideas what it could be?
5:55 American Burn Weed (broad leaf)
10:25 Nut Sedge (grassy)
17:30 Dichondra (broad leaf)
I believe I have chickweed mainly because of the sticky seeds. I have a centipede lawn and hoping you can direct me in the best solution to knock it out. Thought about a pre-emergent but worried it might hinder my centipede from filling back it. Also is it too late to spray change up? I live in north center Florida.
You didn't include Pennywort (aka "dollar weed"), blackberry vines, or fan palm, which is in my yard in northwest Florida. They may prefer sandy soils. Also, ragweed and chickweed and about a dozen other weed varieties (including live oak).
I don't use herbicides in my yard. I use a fork tip digging tool (with a scrap 2x4 to push against).
I hate Palm volunteers. If I don't catch them fast they can be hard to dig out.
I have a lot And I used pre- emergent twice. But, I have weeds and now I'm using weed killer and the weeds love it . What can I do here in Georgia.
Somehow I ended up with torpedo grass in my centipede and it’s spreading like crazy! I can’t find anything other than people saying use glyphosate but I don’t want to kill the grass. Any suggestions?
Even though I have negative numbers as far as profitization sometimes, yet some of my clients still think that my prices are high. They're not acknowledging that I do too many extras without additional cost to them. When I try to charge extra for the extras, they don't recognize it.
What can I do if a house needs additional cleaning?
Neighbours are often complaining for the blower noise and they insist that the blower usage will be prohibited 🚫 soon. Should the neighborhoods acknowledge that motorcycle 🏍 are actually three times louder?
The truth is that even with the usage of a blower, my business is in bankruptcy, therefore, without a blower either the quality of service will be neutralized, or the cost for maintenance Service will have to increase dramatically.
I'm sharing my thoughts and testimony because the politicians are already talking about the reduction of pollution and I anticipate what this factor can only mean. The usage of blowers will be neutralized is my insight, yet we all landscapers can organize the resistance and opposition in the court system based on truthfulness, fairness, and justice ⚖️.
Are clients going to tolerate our prices increase base on the additional time and efforts we'll have to submit too?
Are the complainers using extra loud motorcycles?
Do people who own motorcycles wants to prohibit the usage of blowers' base of the noise even though their motorcycles are louder?
Will people be willing to pay for the extra cost?
The government wants to reduce pollution because the kneigourhoods are blaming pollution to lawncare services even though landscapes do dump pollution accumulation everyday by the yard.
Infact, homes do get dusty without housekeepers unfortunately.
Too much random long message
NOTHING DIES IN ARIZONA! I have tried EVERYTHING for a nasty long winding wrapping blending in shrubs and growing up inside the shrubs like a never-ending vine!! Drives me crazy!!
It would be nice to have a book with a picture of the weed with its name and what products work to control or kill them. Maybe you could put one together???
There is it’s made by ortho😊
I believe the weed you were talking about around the 17:30 mark is Lesser celandine, Ficaria verna. It has yellow flowers early in the spring then it dies back by the end of Spring.
Did you film in my yard?
Im in indiana and i have a terrible paspalum problem sadly most things i try hurt the cool season grass
Jason, how do I send you a picture of a weed I am trying to identify. Been researching for hours and cant pin point
Doveweed in St.Augustine is my nemesis.
Me too, also with St. Augustine. I spot spray doveweed with Atrazine and Blindside mixed in a quart spray bottle. Walk around in the yard in the morning before the sun gets up high to see it better. The Blindside will knock down the kyllinga and nutsedge too. Both Atrazine and Blindside are labeled for doveweed. Atrazine is cheaper than Blindside so if you mainly have doveweed get the Atrazine as it will work alone.
@@Ncharlestun Thanks for your input!
@@SingleStacked You're welcome for sure. I just went out and found some more doveweed to spray. It's easy to spot when dew is on and grass is still in the shade. I go out each or every other morning to search for it. Use dye so you can see previous sprays and results.
Got rid of the foxtail. But. Now have an infestation of spurge. Dailey temp is bumping 100. Any suggestions? Will Dismiss treat without killing Bermuda? Or leave it alone? Try AGAIN next year with premergent?
Spurge is a problem every year. I mostly use celsius during the summer months. Changeup is another good product for spurge
A. I, personally, think dichondra is a lovely, green groundcover, that you called a weed! Lol; a weed is any plant growing where you absolutely do not want it to grow vs. a volunteer.
Would you mind, sometime, expanding a bit on "chamber bitter"?
I believe you MAY have id'd my Mystery turf weed whose missing ID is driving me crazy.
Purely FYI, not a big deal: At 19:07 - 19:46 or :47 your sound disappears.
No big, near the end. Just wanted you to be aware.
Hate spurge and all sedges.
Surprised Nimblewill was not mentioned. Nimblewill is horrible if you have bermuda.
I'm not sure we have Nimbleweed much in my area
Love the video but your sounds cuts out at 19:13. Thanks
Is there all in one application that kills all these?
Nice video, but missed thistle....
Yard...hell..My garden...
Did I plant this?
I got bit by ticks again so I m confused for a couple days,
I forget where I have seeded before
This ain't a blue bush bean...its a cyanne pepper, these aren't radishes starting..
There Weeds....
Amen on poa and nuts edge not to mention bent grass 🤢😫
I used a torch to burn up poa annua seed heads and made sure they were crispy on the ground. The next season I had very little of it. A torch with an easy going red flame will help to burn kyllinga seed heads.
For that torpedo grass use Fusilade II Herbicide should do the trick but it is not good for Bermuda grass
My centipede lawn has torpedo grass mixed in with it and is becoming more prevalent. From my scouring the internet researching options to control it, I’ve only come up with multiple burn applications of glosphate and start over. Sethoxydim can supposedly suppress temporarily but not kill it. Is this a better option to control it?
I would heck like to know the weeds name I know dandelion, and also English ivy
Ground ivy. Simple 24D or a good three way
The product I mentioned called change up is great for ground ivy
Hey Jason, do you use sledgehammer?
If I can mow it and it's green, it's not a weed to me. Also, I don't mind flowering plants in my lawn.
What are you spraying on doveweed?
I use Atrazine on doveweed. 2-4 D weed killers are no good. I like to spot spray in quart bottle sprayers. I add Blindside in the mix to spray any nutsedge or kyllinga that I also deal with. Blindside is labeled for doveweed too but Atrazine is cheaper.
Dr. Phil before medical school..:)
Google lens
I got them all
I was hoping you might mention hairy bittercress and how to knock it out. Was recommended Image for Southern Lawns. But when I applied that, it almost destroyed my centipede. Gonna do a Fall pre-emergent app of Prodiamine, but since I've never had this in my yard until this Spring, wanna be on top of it in case I see another breakout. Any suggestions?
I'm planning to spray my centipede yards with atrazine in January or february. Once they turn green in April or may, you can use 16 oz per acre of change up
Which ones will Roundup not kill?
Selective Roundup is the best.
