Several lawn care and lawn applications tips for the spring for the best health and care of your lawn. It’s important to know when you fertilize, apply herbicides for weed control while weeds have not yet begun to germinate and how moist to keep your lawn. Generally, we apply our first lawn care application when the average daily soil temperature is above 50 degrees for at least three days in a row. So, when you see lawn care application companies spraying to applying their product in colder temperatures you can bet you are not getting your money’s worth. Crabgrass is also best applied when the forsythia bushes have not yet completed their yellow blooms. When the bushes begin to bloom we release trucks to get that early crabgrass control & pre-emergence herbicide applied. The rate of application for each of these products will vary for us depending on the current health of the lawn and what may have happened in the fall. If we had seeded the property the fall we may switch to a spray herbicide application to control certain weeds. watering for your lawn should not start until spring has almost passed if not later. Let Mother Nature run her course.
