Hello
I’m in the process of slopping my back yard away from my house for better drainage. I had a contractor come and added 40 tons of clay for the base and 40 tons of topsoil.
I seeded with Kentucky Elite, added lime and two types of fertiliser, 10/10/10 when I spread the seeds and 7/21.5/23.5 three weeks later.
I water every day and things are not perfect. I have lots of weed popping up that I know I can control with Killex however there is a good crop of crabgrass emerging.
My question is…If I was to inject the stem of the crabgrass plants with roundup using a syringe, would that be effective and not affect the surrounding grasslets (baby grass)?
The other issue is, moss is growing in bare areas.
I checked my soil and the ph is 6.6 and the fertility is 5 according to the three-way analyzer I purchased.
The water I’m using is coming from a well point 12 feet deep.
Please advise.
