Common groundsel is a widespread self-pollinating plant that can produce thousands of seeds, reproducing rapidly if allowed to grow. Not only will it take over turf, but it is also toxic to grazing animals and a carrier for plant diseases like black rot and leaf rust.
When common groundsel is young, the plant grows as a rosette with an alternating leaf arrangement. Common groundsel’s first true leaves are attached to the stem with a petiole, but later leaves will grow straight from the stem itself. Note the deep lobes and the jagged edges.
As the plant matures, the stem grows upright, up to 2 feet tall if the plant sees full sunlight. Common groundsel grows several branches, each growing several flower heads.
When in bloom, the flower heads grow yellow flowers and usually appear as if they’re closed up. They’ll even produce white, fluffy seed heads like dandelions when the plant reaches maturity.
Common groundsel is a cool-season broadleaf weed. It’s considered a winter annual, but can also be regarded as a summer annual in areas where the summers stay cool enough.
The plant typically germinates from late fall to early spring. It will reach maturity and produce seeds towards the late spring and early summer, then die as the summer warms up.
Common groundsel thrives in moist fertile soil, but it can also grow along roadsides or other disturbed areas. Common sites include, but are not limited to, plant beds, gardens, croplands, , and greenhouses.
To control common groundsel growing in warm-season turf, we recommend Fahrenheit Herbicide. The label explicitly states you may apply 6 to 12 ounces of the product, mixed in 20 to 80 gallons of water, to treat 1 acre of treatment area. In smaller spaces, we recommend the listed spot application rate of 0.2 ounces of the product, mixed into 1 gallon of water, to be applied over 1,000 square feet. Keep in mind that when making applications over St. Augustinegrass, Bermudagrass, or Zoysiagrass, temporary stunting or chlorosis may occur. Spot-treat any common groundsel you’ve found during your inspection. Use a fan or cone spray pattern to ensure the leaves are fully coated, and spray the weed to the point of wet but not runoff.
If you’re situated in the northern United States with cool-season grasses, then we recommend Expel Turf Herbicide. In cool-season turf, mix 4 to 8 fluid ounces of concentrate in at least 10 gallons of water to apply over 1 acre. You may also apply this product over warm-season turf at the mix rate of 8 to 12 fluid ounces of concentrate in at least 10 gallons of water to apply over 1 acre. Once your product is thoroughly mixed, broadcast your solution evenly over the area. This application should be done in the late summer or early fall when plants have not yet sprouted.
