Do you find yourself looking at your lawn this time of year and wondering, where all those weeds came from? You can do something about them. Weeds are often an indicator of specific problems. Maintaining a dense, vigorous lawn is essential to prevent lawn weeds. Herbicides should be considered a supplement, not a stand-alone weed control practice. Herbicides should be used in conjunction with proper cultural practices, and a good fertility program. The weed problem may return because the nutrient deficiency, which led to weed invasion, has not been corrected. I recommend starting with a soil sample and using proper fertilization. Low fertility, compaction, poor drainage, and too much shade are all potential problems that can lead to lawn weed problems.
