Is your
commercial property weed free? What do you need to do for your property to be
ready for prime time for your customers?
Annual
grassy weeds are often invasive species and spread thousands of seed during
their lifespan. The common ones you'll see in lawns are crabgrass, goosegrass,
foxtail and barnyardgrass.
Overview
How to
control these problem weeds
Let's
face it: you don't feed, water, and mow your lawn to make it attractive to
weeds. Yet that's how a lot of people feel when they see crabgrass take over.
Annual grassy weeds are tough, aggressive plants that thrive on stressed areas
of your yard. Dried-out lawns, thin patches, sun - scorched areas are inviting
spots for grassy weeds. The best way to fight them is to learn how they work
and what they like, then deprive them.
Prevention
and Maintenance
Know What
You're Up Against
Annual
grassy weeds are only live for one growing season and have to work fast. Since
they only live for a season, they produce hundreds or even thousands of seeds
that lie dormant until the following spring. Over time, they can completely
overrun your yard. Plants of this type include crabgrass, foxtail and
goosegrass.
Your Plan
of Attack
Now that
you know how weeds thrive, it's time to take them on. Apply pre-emergent in the
spring. If annual grassy weeds have already sprouted, then a control product
like Ortho® Weed B Gon MAX® Plus Crabgrass Control is a great option.
The Best
Defense Is Offense
The way
to keep weeds out of your lawn is to make them feel unwelcome in the first
place. Keep your lawn thick and healthy, and weeds won't find a place to settle
in. If you mow you lawn at the proper height - usually one of the 2 highest
setting on your mower, water deeply, and feed regularly, you'll do a lot to
keep weeds out of your yard.
