I’ve got crabgrass coming up in some perennial rye that I’ve overseeded onto my bermuda playing surface. I think the crabgrass was brought in by a contractor who leveled out my infield last month with some fresh soil. I overseeded before I knew that the crab was there. I have an otherwise effective year round preemergent routine with dimension and ronstar. The crab is competing with my rye. Any suggestions as to elimination of the crabgrass, other than waiting for winter?

Drive will kill the crabgrass, be fine with the rye, but not sure about the Bermuda. 1 pound per acre and use methylated seed oil as an adjuvant.

Bad Crabgrass year all over………….
