hello, and thanks in advance for any advice. my problem and question is i have recentley sprigged my yard with tifway 419 bermuda and i have a lot of crab grass and broad leaf weeds coming up everywhere. i sprayed roundup and preemerged the lawn 10 days before i sprigged. it has been 3 weeks now. i was wandering if there is anything i could about this. thanks again for your help.

you don’t want to do anything to stress out the new grass. hold off on the herbicides. don’t recommend sprigging…
