With all the help i got from here - i am eradicating dandelions.:D:D:DSome other-to me unknown named broad leaf weeds too.............
Weed B Gone is a way to go!

Thanx to many of You suggesting it!!!

After buying 0.5 l of Weed B Gone CONCENTRATE(newer knew it existed in concentrate form until learning from here-thanx GW11)i mixed it in with 9.5 l water in a 10 l sprayer,and went at it.
My eradication trial proved successful.

Thanx to all once more.

Another proof that being a member here can reap great benefits!!!

Way to go fellow hunters.Support each other as much as we can!CheersAttachment 40387

Dilute 53ml per 3 L of water and that will do 100 sq meters. 1L of Par 3 will cover 1,886 square meters! A little goes a long way

my lawn is overwhelmed by clover. any ideas on getting rid of it?

JJL-clover could be a good thing.It blends in well with the grass,it gives lots of Nitrogen back to the soil,it crowds out other bigger nastier broad leaf weeds,and they do not look that bad(IMHO)
Just my 2 cents-i would trade all the Dandelion,Crabgrass,other creepy crawly weeds (some i do not even know the name for)for just grass and clover.

Try Weed B Gone concentrate though -i did some damage to my clover,while getting rid of the Dandelions and other weeds...........after all,clover is also broad leaf.

I worked on a golf course when I was a kid. The greens keeper always used a mixture of two gallons of vinegar,two bottles of ordinary dish soap in a 45 gallon sprayer on the back of a tractor to spray greens,approaches and aprons to drive grubs away from them. I still use it on my lawn to this day (scaled back considerably,of course). The place smells like french fries for a day,but,I couldn't care less. The neighbors sure hate it because the grubs migrate to their place. LOL

Trimmer-great advice.Is there a month when to do this,or any month is as good as it gets?
I do nematodes against grubs every once in a while,but what You mentioned seems easy,quick and cheap.

i appreciate that it could be worse than clover. just looks more like a clover field than a yard at times. dandelions were taken care of. weed b gone i think, would have thought the clover would be toast too. as it is a broad leaf as well. but it doesn't seem to have affected it. or maybe i need to spray again now that clover is taking over?
