"Ortho Weed B Gone" Liquid Spray vs. Scotts Fertilizer with Plus 2 Weed Control to kill weeds? OKay so i'm going to be trying to kill the weeds in my yard soon. it is a newly planted tall fescue lawn. After i mow it 4 or 5 times i'll probably zap it. I've got what i believe to be mallow weed. so what would you reccommend an Ortho spray or a scotts weed control fertilizer? what are the pros and cons of each, and what'll do the trick the best? YES - i did put down scotts starter fertilizer, so i will make sure to wait at least 7 weeks before hitting it with anything else. the weed is fairly spread out through the whole yard. thick in a few spots and sparce in others, but it would be easier to use a granule probably. it could be harmful to increase the amount you spread right? cause that would be the only thing with scotts is that it probably wouldn't drop enough to come in contact with every single weed. is either one more dangerous to a new yard?

What's in the liquid fertilizer sprayed onto yards by Scott's Lawncare? Any chemicals that bioaccumulate? I have several questions. 1. What are the chemical ingredients of this fertilizer? Is it dangerous to humans, like a pesticide? And do any of its constituents bioaccumulate in the human body and contribute to the overral chemical body burden, exacerbating chances of cancer, illness, dementia, etc? 2. How long does the chemical fertilizer stay active, after being sprayed? Ergo, what is the appropriate re-entry time? My dog walked through a yard that had been sprayed with it, about seven hours after treatment. Could the dog then track these chemicals back into my home, where they can get into my body and hurt me? 3. Does this stuff essentially absorb into the grass and make it toxic? If the next day, someone cut the grass, does this make the "fresh cut grass smell" poisonous and neurotoxic, when inhaled?
