How do you control weeds in your lawn?

Second Nature Lawncare specializes in helping homeowner and business owners have the lawn they want.  Here are some examples of work they have done in the Middle Tennessee area:

This lawn is overrun with Henbit, a pesky competitor for your grass:

Henbit, a member of the mint family, is an upright winter annual that blooms in the spring. The leaves are rounded on the end with rounded toothed edges that grow opposite one another on square stems Upper leaves lack petioles. Henbit can grow from 4 to 12 inches tall on weak stems. Although an upright plant, weak stems sprouting from the bottom may lay almost horizontal.

Here is a photo of a lawn that is overrun with Henbit:

Second Nature worked with this lawn and here is a photo of the lawn after our work:

What a difference!

Kicking Crabgrass to the Curb-Successful Control increases with Prevention

It is that time.  Second Nature Lawncare can help you eliminate the crabgrass in your lawn. Is your lawn ready?  Are you ready? Kicking Crabgrass to the Curb SUCCESSFUL CONTROL INCREASES WITH PREVENTION The rules of crabgrass control are really very simple.  Do nothing, and your lawn stands the chance of being overrun by this clumpy, coarse-textured, all-around unsightly weed.  Take preventative action, on the other hand, and crabgrass can be kept in check. MAINTAINING HEALTHY TURF IS THE FIRST STEP Every lawn has crabgrass seeds in the soil, and these seeds are more likely to grow when turf doesn’t receive adequate care.  Regular fertilization, proper mowing, good watering practices, and insect and disease control will all help to maintain a thick lawn that is less likely to be marred by crabgrass. PRE-EMERGENTS TAKE IT A STEP FURTHER For even better control, pre-emergent herbicides can be applied to your lawn.  As their name suggests, pre-emergent herbicides stop crabgrass plants from emerging by inhibiting seed germination in the soil. To get the best results from pre-emergents, proper application, timing and follow-up care are essential. Pre-emergents should be on the lawn before crabgrass seeds begin germinating. Yearly applications are needed for ongoing control. Slightly heavier applications along sidewalks, driveways and streets are helpful, since these areas are more susceptible to crabgrass infestation. Applications should be watered in within five to seven days if there’s no rainfall. Heavy raking, dethatching or any other mechanical disruption of the soil is not recommended after pre-emergents have been put down, since this will break up the control zone. While it’s true that crabgrass is a formidable and very persistent pest, it can be managed successfully.  A proactive combination of good lawn care practices and pre-emergent applications is the key. PLEASE NOTE:  Pre-emergent herbicides will stop desirable grass seeds from growing as well.  If you want to reseed your lawn, you should wait six to eight weeks after pre-emergents have been applied.
