[QUOTE="alabama, post: 787703, member: 2218"] I think it best to spray Bermuda grass in the fall when still growing and green. At that time it is taking up nutrients and storing in the roots. I have had my best luck spraying it at this time of year. However in Alabama this year it is just too dry. Use a gal/acre next summer but it won't kill it. You will have to retreat in the fall. That said, Common Bermuda is not a "bad" pasture. Yes others are better so why not wait until next fall to kill it when conditions are better. You can still over seed this winter with ryegrass. Also Round-Up may not be the best thing to use. Some other herbicides will work better on Bermuda. Call an agronomist. Shoot you live in Alabama. Send Dr. Ball over at Auburn an e-mail and ask him. After all he developed the AU grazer. Good guy you can even call him. You are paying him through your taxes. Good luck and please let me know how things work out. [/QUOTE]
