Pre-emergent products kill weeds before they are able to grow above the soil. Timing is very important! Apply pre-emergents just before the soil reaches 55+ degrees, just before the seeds begin to germinate in the soil. Please follow the product label for mowing restrictions prior to and after herbicide applications as mowing can negatively impact the efficacy of the herbicide.
You can choose many different types of post-emergent products kill already-growing weeds. Note that some selective post-emergent will not harm foliage other than the target weed. While non-selective will kill any plant it comes in contact with, including your grass. Please be refer to the product label for mowing restrictions prior to and after herbicide applications. You can use a post emergent can be used as early as April in warm regions.
Proper fertilization doesn’t just help plant crops, but is also necessary for lawns. Before, I talk about following a lawn schedule, I need to source a good local corporation for analysis. But I’m a bit confused about this. How do I get one or more of these local cooperatives for analysis and putting me through on how to follow the lawn care schedule.
Before you choose any fertilizer to ensure that you select the one that has nitrogen. Knowing how to apply fertilizer is also important. Water your lawn a day before applying fertilizer and let the grass dry completely. Then water again after application so that fertilizer from the grass blades is washed off. Do not over-fertilize else you will have to mow the lawn often.
