Re: bermudagrass wars

Cathy,
I've had nutsedge problems over the years, some years worse than others, and
last year was terrible.  This year, however, minimal - just a few here and
there.  Of course, I pull them out even though they warn you not to. But I
think it helps - I do make sure to pull from the base so that I get the nut.
