Violets are one of the hardest
weeds to control.
You are not going to have much luck using a
weed control attached to a fertilizer.
You can control them by using a 2.4.D based product, but it must be done in the
spring while they are still in bloom, if you wait until after the surface of the leaves harden and you might as well wait until next
spring to do anything.
Even if spraying in the
spring you may need to do multiple applications to kill them dead.I have tried to choke them out with grass by just feeding lawns, and properly caring for a lawn, but the violets enjoy pretty much the same conditons as the grass does so what ever you do to make the lawn healthier, it just does the same to the
weeds. <img border="0" alt="[perplexed]" title="" src="graemlins/confused.gif" />
