MSMA is a great solution to kill crabgrass, dallisgrass, sandburrs and many other noxious weeds. If you plan to use MSMA to eliminate your crabgrass, be sure to thoroughly read the label and follow all precautions and directions.
While you should always defer to the directions printed on the MSMA label, the mix rate scale below can be used as a general rule of thumb.
Dave Garwood
how soon can you areate and oversees after last MSMA application?
Byrdie
You can overseed a week or so after your last application of MSMA.
jesse
What time of the year can you apply the msma to be effective?
Byrdie
MSMA should be applied when the air temperature is above 70 degrees.
Byrdie
Once the air temp gets to 70 degrees it is OK to use MSMA.
Raymond Dominguez
can it be used before planning ?
Byrdie
MSMA can be used prior to overseeding. Give it a week or two after the last application before you sow grass seed.
Arthur Nash
Can this product be used on Bermuda Tiff lawn. When MSMA was available in Texas, it worked very well for me.
Please advise.
Thank you
Byrdie
MSMA works very well with Bermuda. Give us a call to discuss your options.
Bryan
I have a couple of questions
1. Should MSMA be applied before or after cutting grass?
2. I also bought some 13-13-13 fertilizer. Does it matter when to spray MSMA and apply the fertilizer?
3. How does rain affect MSMA? Should I apply when it is NOT going to rain for a few days ?
Byrdie
1) apply after making a cut
2) application of the fertilizer should not matter
3) MSMA is rain-fast when dry. Try not to spray when a gully-washer is coming, but otherwise, you should be fine.
Jara parrish
Should I apply msma before I cut my grass full of stickers or after?
Byrdie
You certainly would not want to apply MSMA and then immediately cut the turf. Apply forst and then wait 4-5 days before you cut.
G. Keller
How long will MSMA keep in original jug since I have a small lawn and won’t use much at a time ?
Byrdie
MSMA should last for 3-5 years if you keep it stored in a moderately cool and dry place.
Randy
How soon after the 1st application can you apply the 2nd?
Byrdie
For best results, make two applications about 20 days apart.
Sherrie Allen
Can you spray MSMA when temps are above 70, but will rise to above 90 during the day?
Byrdie
Sherrie….you can spray MSMA when temperatures are between 70 and 95. Above that, you need to be careful.
Doug
Thank you for the great price and quick shipping of my MSMA. I am very anxious to see how it helps with the mess of sandburrs we have. I have a couple of questions.
1. Does MSMA have to be watered in if there is no rain expected for a while or is it absorbed through the leaves like roundup?
2. If not watered in how long will it take for animals to be allowed back onto the treated area?
Byrdie
MSMA is not labelled for grazing. Please check the label to make sure you are using it properly. If you have any questions, please feel to call us at the store.
Shane
I have a lot of nut grass in new Bermuda sod that was laid about 4 weeks ago getting worse everyday. Is it safe to treat with MSMA at this time?
Byrdie
Shane. You should let the Bermuda sod get established before you attempt any weed control. That would mean cutting it 3-4 times. After that, try Sedgehammer. This is a great product for nutgrass.
Robert Fowler
I have a mixture of Burmeda and St. Augustine grass in my yard. Is MSMA safe to use, or will it harm my St. Augustine?
Sam Minnich
MSMA is not recommended for St. Augustine.
Zach
Can MSMA be used as a pre emergent or is only recommended for post emergent treatment?
Fuller Sasser
MSMA is a post-emergent only. However, it can be combined with pre-emergent herbicides like prodiamine or dithiopyr to create a powerful one/two punch.
Kevin
Will MSMA kill poa annua in bermuda?
Fuller Sasser
MSMA will not kill poa annua. Take a look at Poa Constrictor
