Best Answer

Dicamba, mecoprop, triclopyr, and 2,4-D are herbicides that kill weeds in fine fescue. The best known fine fescue is red fescue (Festuca rubra) because of fine leaves for soft matting, low fertilization and irrigation need, and shade and sun tolerances. It tends to overseed dormant Bermuda grass lawns and will tolerate established turfgrass herbicides except for 2,4-D + dichlorprop + dicamba.

Fescues - Another Type of Grass?

Fescues grasses grow and adapt the best in the cool season. They thrive the best in the Central to Northern states and up into Canada. This species seeds easily and has many different sub species. The tall bunching grasses are called tall fescue, the short fine fescues are called hard fescue, chewings fescue, creeping red, and sheep fescue. The hard fescue is the hardiest of them all. It is also resistant to disease and can grow very well in areas that are mainly shaded. It grows the slowest of all of the fescues, and this makes it a very low maintenance type of grass. Places that are not easily maintained use the hard fescue for erosion, conservaton and reclamation planting in areas that are not easily taken care of. All of the fescue grasses can handle a drought and don’t need a lot of watering. The fescue grasses can survive in the shade when most other cool season grasses cannot. They also can tolerate and thrive in the hot seasons of the lower transitions zones, and in the transition zone that is too cold for the other grasses in the winter. All of the fescue grass species stay green all year. Even though this grass tolerates shade and cold very well, the Fine fescues tolerate them much better than the Tall fescues. Since all of the species remain green all of the time, they fill a grass field gap caused by climate differences and changes when other grasses cannot. The tall fescues are perfect for pastures and for the animals to use for grazing. Also, the new variety of turf type tall fescue grass can take heavy traffic, resist insects, have a strong blade structure and a more attractive color that would be good to have on a lawn. It is also safe to over seed the tall fescue grass lawns when the lawn becomes too thin. The best time for the overseeding is in the fall so that the grass is at its’ best by the time the hot summer arrives. Even the newer and different varieties of fescue grass can be overseeded at this time and then done yearly.

How do you treat grassy weeds?

I have dealt with this problem before and it can be pretty frustrating. Typically a liquid spray works well on grassy weeds. You can use products like Weed-B-Gone Max and spot treat. If you have a lot of weeds then you should probably use a granular weed and feed product that has weed killer and fertilizer. Grassy weeds include crabgrass so you should use something with crabgrass preventer if you have this problem. Scotts Halts Crabgrass preventer works well. Make sure you apply it BEFORE grabgrass starts to sprout, typically before the weather starts to warm up. Once it's growing you'll have to spot treat, which is fine for one or two weeds here and there, impossible if your yard is covered with weeds.. The problem with weeds is that you can really prevent them from taking over your lawn if you grow a thick, green, healthy lawn. If you don't have the right soil (like I did - mine was too sandy) and you don't water it frequently enough, you will create the dry conditions that weeds love. Watering is the most important - without that you'll be fighting an uphill battle. No amount of weed killer will help.
