Homeowners should be gear-
ing up for spring weed control
in the near future. Troublesome
lawn weeds such as crabgrass,
goosegrass and sandbur can be
prevented before they ever show
up. These annual weeds return
from seed each spring, but a
pre-emergent herbicide can pre-
vent many weed seeds from ever
germinating.
In order for this concept to
be effective, the pre-emergent
needs to be applied before weed
seed germinates. Weather con-
ditions influence the time of
mjoyed this chapter and what seed germination and early or
late springs can make applica-
tion dates difficult to predict.
