During the spring (aka RIGHT NOW), the best thing you can do for your lawn to look green, healthy, and weed-FREE for the rest of the year is applying pre-emergents to kill weeds before they grow.
This is an easy-to-follow guide with over 50 pages of content that is structured to take you from a beginner or intermediate level and give you specific lawn care knowledge and strategies around pre-emergents.
After reading this, you’ll have everything you need to understand how pre-emergents work and how to use them for your exact lawn to get rid of weeds and get that lush, dark green lawn you’ve been wanting!
Once you've applied pre-emergents, the next step to up your game is to apply selective post-emergent herbicides which will kill any weeds that were not affected by your pre-emergent application.
My post-emergent guide will give you the lawn care knowledge and strategies for you to understand what post-emergent herbicides are, why we use them, and how to confidently apply products from your local big-box store to your lawn.
After reading this, you’ll have everything you need to understand how post-emergents work and how to use them for your exact lawn to get rid of weeds and especially dandelions!
My Grub Prevention Guide covers how to deal with the common lawn scourge of grubs.
I'll walk you through exactly what products to use (all easily available from big-box stores) and how to apply them.
The good news for grub prevention is it only takes one single application to get it done. It’s one and done each year!
The other good news here is that grub control is not a product that can very easily “burn” the lawn or damage it even if you over-apply so for a beginner, it’s good “training wheels.”
If you are just starting out and learning to spread products via a spreader - this is a great way to learn.
