| I am going to have a 3,000 sq. foot area of yard hydroseeded in 1 month.
This was a vacant lot in a suburban (north Florida) neighborhood before we built. So, lots of weeds, crabgrass, and other assorted growths. What herbacide do you recommend I use to prep this sandy soil before the hydroseed pro's come and work their magic? Thanks!

| Round-up. I would probably do it twice. Once about 2 weeks before seeding, and then a day or two before seeding. I would also do a little research on Tenacity. I know most warm season grasses are sensitive to it, but that's on established turf, it might be fine for preemergence before seeding, hopefully someone will know for sure. |

| Are you sure the crabgrass is not St Augustine? If so then the yard is recoverable. |

| Positive about yard not being recoverable. The lot was vacant as the original home burned down in 1980. The city made the owners clear the lot in 1990. |
