can you apply ornamec and immediately overseed with fescue

No, it would stunt the growth, pretty sure the product manual says 2 weeks before you overseed

According to the instructions, you can apply this anytime. It is also recommended that several applications over time be done to build up the concentration of spore in the soil.

I agree with JP's answer. I have fescue and buffalo grass and it worked fine on both, it only killed the sedge. If you're not sure, or if the instructions warn against your type of lawn grass, then don't use it and/or return the product. Almost all Amazon Marketplace suppliers will refund your purchase price if the product is unopened.

Yes, amend your soil of any rocks or dried grasses, at this time when ground is level and ready for planting,spread in your fertilizer, I used this product as some of the reviews gave a good result. But, I found that they soil here has a soft clay so this year I stared to use a Compost Fertilizer, Buffaloloam made from buffalo pooh, It's very rick, no smells and dark dark coloring. and everything in this garden looks like a golf course, The green light a fast result, within days,but, seemed to only have a speedy set to a light coloring. With the Buffalo loam compost, it's great for every living thing, except humans..Please feel free to ask any questions .if I have not answered your question. English is my second language and the English has been a challenge all the years. Brenda

Yes, I had success this past spring with one application on select areas. And, it did not harm my native carpet/St. Augustine but in areas where the "stickers" had taken over I had bare ground, of course the grass soon covered. But, it appears that now (fall) is actually the perferred time to treat as the seeds (spurs) were probably already produced at the time of my application. I'm going to broadcast with my tractor/atv sprayer over the entire yard this month to cover the areas missed earlier by the spot spraying.

I don't have any Bluegrass in my yard, so I can't speak from experience. I just googled "ornamec and bluegrass" and got mixed opinions on this. The directions indicate it does stress other grasses, and I noticed this slightly on my fescue. But how it affects bluegrass, I'm sorry I can't say.

Sorry, I don't know. I do know that when you use potting/grading soil it already has fertilizer mixed in. I have seen of some of the TV shows they put fertilizer down when lay sod. There is no need to use this which includes week killer. The weeds have to be present and damp so the killer will stick to the weed and penetrate the leaf. I really think it would not do any good till the grass has been established. You should just use fertilizer, but if you already have the Turf Builder, I would try it.

Sorry I haven't applied it yet. I plan on using a sprayer on some duck weed.

I have not tried Sempra, but I do know that SedgeHammer works well on Nutgrass if it doesn't get rained or sprinkled off in about 8hrs. It now comes with surfactant right in the mixture.

Not sure. Directions don't say but probably more effective sprayed or dusted directly on diseased shrub etc.

I did not use this on my lawn and/or shrubs, just for dirt that was already in pots as well as our raised garden bed. I do believe the configuration is included in the instructions.

Yes, but first wait at least a week to let cuttings dry out on bottom of stem if cuttings are fresh. Dip in water and then in growth hormone. Plant in pot with 2 parts perlite and 1 part potting soil with no fertilizer. Water only as needed.

I only use this on bremuda grass..this is a powerfull killer. This will kill all grass, but sometimes it will come back next year.i don't know about fescue or the other, Sorry

It depends on the intended purpose, but for controlling Bermuda grass in tall fescue, the instruction sheet says to apply 20-24 oz per acre. So a gallon would cover about 5 acres-- for one treatment. From my reading and limited experience, it takes more than one treatment to eliminate Bermuda grass. I bought a gallon of Ornamec to treat approximately 3/4 acre of fescue. I applied it to the entire area once, and to smaller areas subsequently. I plan to apply again this spring as the Bermuda grass breaks dormancy. Good luck.

Hello Judith. I contacted the seller directly and this is what I was told regarding the height:"The full height of fully erect fine fescue is 14", however it typically lays over and creeps, making it a lower lawn than this. We have had no complaints over the height of this mixture."I am getting ready to overseed my backyard and will post again when I have meaningful results to share.

Almost immediately...it will . stunt growth and will turn yellow within 2-7 days. If you truly have nursed he, this will . absolutely work...I was so pleased with this product....bc it out grows the lawn and made it look unkempt even 1 day after mowing. As you know this stuff grows fast....and you will notice that it won't grow even before it turns yellow.
