I have had a major infestation of tree saplings in my lawn this spring. I have never experienced anything like this in the lawn. Just as I stated in my last video, "one thing consistent about maintaining your lawn is change". In this video, I will discuss how I eliminated these tree saplings and it would also work for other wood type of weeds. Hope you enjoy the video!!!

This was a good one Cam. Way to represent our thought processes and how we use our resources when we find an issue in the lawn. Lawn is looking good!

Thanks man, I appreciate that! I felt that it was import to document the thought process for identification and bring everything full circle with the kill off of the saplings.

I have a customer with a huge maple seedling problem. I wanted to to try triclopyr on a small scale to see if it would work. I applied Weed B Gon Chickweed, Clover & Oxalis Killer which includes triclopyr. I mowed the lawn four days later and saw no effect, but when I came back yesterday, eleven days after application, I saw mass die off of the seedlings. The ortho product in the hose end sprayer bottle would be good for a small area where you do not want to mix your own. I may look into crossbow herbicide, which blends triclopy and 2,4 D. That probably kills everything bad including dandelions, plantain, wild violet, creeping charlie and woody plant seedlings!

Yeah the label says you can roll it with 2-4-d. That's probably a deadly combination for weeds

I so appreciated the apocalyptic tone in the beginning 😂 that's how I feel looking at my yard--just moved into this new house and there are a variety of woody weeds *everywhere* through what would otherwise be really nice grass. I'll have to figure out what grass it is and then hopefully be able to take care of it. Thanks for the video!

Glad you enjoyed it. Identify your grass type and get it taken care of this spring before they mature which makes them harder to eliminate.

Great video! Question…the trees that are causing the saplings in my yard are next to my grass. I went ahead and cleared out the area down to dirt and was wondering if I sprayed it with the herbiside….1) would it hard the large trees in my yard, 2) would it be smart to spray it before I lay sod?

@ElevatedLawnscapes 2 жыл бұрын

If you have cleared out the saplings i do not see a need for you to spray a herbicide. The herbicide needs to come in contact with the saplings to be effective.

@RakuRozay Ай бұрын

This video was super helpful! I have oak tree saplings that are taking over my fescue lawn. Can I use triclopyr and azprop (fungicide) at the same time? Or should I alternate applications?

Legally any branches that hang over to your property you can cut, I would suggest talking to you neighbor and asking if he minds if you trim it back a few first as most neighbors will be alright with that but you always have the nuclear option of cutting what hangs on your side. Tripclopry is likely your best bet tho

@ElevatedLawnscapes 2 жыл бұрын

Yep, you are right but the there are 2 of them and the 2nd one is easily 40-50' tall. The seeds will still end up falling across the fence. At least, I know I have a solution for them next year.

Just watched your video and hoping this may work for the problem I have. We had a black locust tree that was cut down last year and this year we noticed a multitude of saplings starting to grow everywhere...in our lawn, garden beds and it has spread around our house. Is this Triclopyr available in Canada? If not, what would you suggest we try...we are desperate and the situation is not good.

@ElevatedLawnscapes Жыл бұрын

I am not familiar with the laws in Canada but I know that many herbicides are restricted there. I have experience with Triclopyr and it works well on saplings and woody plants. My apologies but i do not have another suggestion at this time for you to try if Triclopyr is not available. If do find or hear of another option I will let you know. Thanks for watching.

Thanks for making this video. I have had this problem with a tree on my front lawn that has me going crazy. I have ordered the two chemicals and plan on using them this upcoming week. I would like to ask you do I cut the grass first and then apply or apply anytime? Thank you in advance. GILBERT

If you were moving into a new house and wanted to do a full renovation to establish you own practices so you’re able to identify issues whether human error or not what grass type would you use? Also would having two separate types of grass in front and backyard be too much work?

@ElevatedLawnscapes Жыл бұрын

The grass type would depend on where I am located. I would pick a grass type that was suitable for my location and environmental conditions. I don't think managing 2 different types would be too difficult if you have the time and can have duplicate equipment....like 2 sprayers. I would not use the same sprayer for products for warm season and cool season grass types.

@@ElevatedLawnscapes is your mixture of tf and kbg a manufacturer blend or did you ratio it yourself? From what I understand tf mixed with kbg is good because kbg takes longer to germinate so the tf acts as a protector while the kbg matures.

All you can do is keep working on it! Some seasons are great and some season are below our expectations but stopping will never get you to the goal.
