SUMMER 2024

SPRING TREATMENT
Spring is here and I am applying the first application with fertilizer and a pre-emergent. Many lawns had damage last year from the heat and lack of rain. This will help fill in bad spots. If larger areas need to be seeded, make sure to scratch up the soil to break up the crabgrass control. But keep in mind that you could get crabgrass there later in the summer. It's normally best to see in the early fall.

BROADLEAF WEEDS

You may be seeing more spring weeds than normal. Fall weed control prevents the early spring weeds. The problem is that weed control needs some rain to work, and last summer and fall were very dry. But the soil temps need to be over 50 degrees all day and night to get results. And those temperatures don't normally arrive until early May. That is when I will be applying the weed control.
