Paul, maybe the lawns where stressed, but Metsulfuron really is for woody broadleaf weeds and as I said before it can kill grass.

Very good, thanks for your advice! I have a school oval covered in bindii which needs spraying next week, so hopefully the broadside will do the job for now. Its mostly kikuya. Thanks for the tip on zoysia, Ill be carefull to keep clear of that, one client of mine has it.
What I do is purely a time saving act.
I'd rather spend a dollar of chemical and few minutes to spray the bad areas than to double the cutting time during spring. I only do this on ferals and theres usually enough leaf left after the cut to take effect slowing the weeds for easier cutting through spring. Saying that I'm not going to spray large areas for free, I'll try and talk the client into that and I do it correctly.
Spray with Kamba M. You should have good results. Too often the homeowner gets it wrong when spraying, especially if they use those hit & miss click-on hose mixes.
anyone had any history using javelin? its what I typically use
I dont break things ...I just use them beyond their operational limitations

John, just sprinkle some Sulphate of Ammonium over the Clover and hose in, the clover will be gone by next visit. Only that area will be a bit thicker and greener than the rest so won't be so hard to mow.
Have not used it but it could be as good as Kamba M, just in 10 litre bottles though makes it a bit of a pain. Kamba M comes in 1 litre and 5 litre bottles
Only ever bought it by 10s lol never had dramas personally just after others thoughts

I had a look at Javelin online and it's mentioned it takes up to 6 weeks to kill the weeds. Is this true? I've been using Bindie on Buffalo and Kamba M on other grasses and it seems these two work within a 3week timeline.
Yep. It takes about 4 weeks before you start to see results but be patient as it will kill every weed in the lawn. Don't respray any lawns. It will work.

This season, javelin worked in 3 to 4 for me.

Anyone come across black oats/wild oats in lawns. I think I've put up pics somewhere before. Was told by an agronomist to treat it like Winter grass but I call BS. It's everywhere at the moment and I still can't find a lawn-compatible selective herb to kill it.
