   I have some collars with poa that I have not been able to eliminate and now my bermuda is coming out of dormancy. Is it safe to use Velocity to clean these areas up? Will it hurt the bermuda or do I have any risk of it moving onto my greens turf and damaging it? I am a bit unclear about this after reading the label.
   Any suggestion would be appreciated.

   There may be some varietal differences in tolerance but I am using Velocity to remove Vamont Bermudagrass from my L-93 Bentgrass fairways. It does take repeat applications at high rates, but has proven fairly effective. Most likely a single application will not kill the Bermuda but you ought to expect some damage. As far as running onto your greens, I'm assuming Bentgrass, In my experience as long as you apply within the label rates and recommended temperatures little to no damage on Bent.
