dbltree, please see my previous posts. I hope you can make some suggestions. Maybe I should have started a new thread?
shut off the sprinkler. Would you be able to elaborate on your thinking on that one.
I don't know about Iowa, dbltree, but in Kansas, crabgrass is a warm season grass that does not germinate until the ground temperature is warm enough for nwsg to germinate also. Hence, my big problem. It puts out tons of seed, when the nwsg is drilled it incorporates the crabgrass also and it all germinates at dang near the same time. I don't know how much the crabgrass is going to hurt me but I want to minimize the damage it does.
dbltree,
I have 16ac. of NWSG that was planted this spring. It was sprayed with roundup and Panoramic before it was drilled. The only weed that emerged was waterhemp. How can I control that other than mowing all the time?

My frost seedings all look great but my CIR is innundated with foxtail. How do I get rid of it??
At this stage of the game it's probably not going to matter and you could just ride it out for the season but you can spray with Paramount or Drive 75 (same thing) and kill the foxtail without harming the switch.
Kinda pricey too so you'll have to decide if you want to mess with it or not. See the front page of this thread for mor info and look up both labels in the herbicide thread as well.
In a few weeks frost will kill the foxtail for the year and next year the switch will out compete the foxtail...
