Seriously!!! What kind of grass/weed is this?
I have been fighting this stuff for 2 years now and its starting to get out of control. I have put down EVERY single over the counter stuff available at home depot/lowes I can find. Iv used that bayer crabgrass stuff, nutsedge, scotts turf builder with weed, numerous hose sprayer stuff, concentrated stuff... im not joking, almost every single product, I have used and this stuff will NOT die!!
it almost looks like a mini st. augustine grass, but its not. it starts in little clumps and is a light lime green color... some of them even have a little purple in it is seems? anyway, anything short of tearing entire yard up and starting fresh, how can I get rid of this? I thought of spot treating with roundup or something, but that really wouldnt work as its all over now. It seems like when i fertilize and ironite my lawn, this stuff grows in more instead of my bermuda!! |

Hard to tell with it cut short, can you post a picture with it grown a bit or even better a blade with the root attached.
I'm guessing crabgrass or foxtail but your description with a little purple in it I'm leaning more toward crabgrass.

Try a tree way like speedzone or trimec but my 2,4-D has killed a many many crabgrass. Just be careful with drift as with any herb and spray as directed or you'll kill more then you expect.
