Inlaws had one of the big commercial companies hired to spray their yard for weeks and fertilize. The back yard was dirt. The tree canopy was so full that zero sunlight got there, but the company rep gladly placed a sign in the yard saying it had been sprayed for weeks and fertilized!
Kinda small signs, but they do make a great target holder at the range for short range .22 and such. A 4X5" note card fits right into the plastic holder with a spike underneath.

I am moving to Edmond, within city limits in a HOA. What kind of weeds? Just the standard weeds. I noticed in my Norman home that no matter what I spray on it from Home Depot it doesn't work. I need to get it professionally sprayed. Issue is in the Edmond home the quotes are coming on over $150 per spray
For standard weeds i would use a standard weed killer.😉

Yep $150 sounds about right

Also what are you thinking moving into a HOA, first time you do a little target practice in your back yard they will be on your ass

If I ever need an effective weed killer, that sounds like a good one.

I didn’t notice that until after they shipped it to me in Arizona 😅 Killed AZ weeds just fine.

I have 3/4 of an acre and would like to spray to kill weeds myself. What chemicals do I use, and when do I use them? I would like a cheat sheet so I can do it myself and save some $.
Round up in the late winter early spring while the Bermuda is dormant. Use pre-emergent to keep the weed seeds from germinating. And when the weeds are gone, Bermuda likes lots of fertilizer.

Lots of information here including your cheat sheet.

It seems that since the OKC bombing that the fertilizer we can buy has been diluted and of poor quality.
I recall the $7 stuff at 7-11 was the best stuff around. Not now days. It takes 3 or 4 times as much even
when the same ingredients are on the label.
