Looking forward to the things you teach us during this Spring! As I worked in my landscape/lawn care business in Kingwood & Atascocita here in Texas…..I used pre-emergents too brother. Then after that first bald cut I went in with 13/13/13. The best care for weeds in a lawn is a thick, green & full San Augustine yard!

Previously the only Lesco I could find locally was 18-0-0 0.37 and had to go to Site One. Not sure if this is a newer offering from Lesco or just Lowes picking up the product but I'm a happy lawn care man!

Today i spread my pre-emergent/ fertilizer at 5.5 in order to comensate for the lag in the settings. coverage appeared good at this setting. As much as I like it, these are not finely tooned machines.

Love that the content is flowing again! Good to see lawn care videos populating in my feed again!! Question on timing for prodiamine (I'm doing a backpack spray split app)..... I'm here in Long Island NY and like you said, in the northeast, we had a few straight days of sunshine and 65-68 degree days last week that brought up our soil temps to 55 for about 3 days in a row. Now we are back down at 49 degrees and there are a few nights in the 30s forecasted to bring it down further. Also, Forsythia hasn't started blooming here yet which is what I hear is a good indicator as well as soil temps.....Long question short, did I just miss my window for pre-emergent or can I get out there and do it this weekend even though we hit 55-degree soil temps for about 3 days in a row. Did the weed seeds already just germ in those three days? Interested to hear your thoughts.....Thanks. As always keep up the great vids.

I did a TTTF renovation last fall. Planted on Sep 4th. I’m in the transition zone. I had some weed pressure during the germination process, but overall everything went well. Some areas seem to be struggling and thin coming out of winter. Should I do a prodiamine application or just spoon feed fertilizer and take weeds out with post emergents? Not sure.

I reseeded after 2 feet of snow melted and just before the next round of snow about a month ago. It’s shady with 3 trees. I also just pruned back a bunch of branches to see if I can get more light. I was thinking dormant seeding would be a good option because there are no leaves yet to block the sunlight. Let’s see what happens. I haven’t fertilized yet due to the cold weather. Probably within the next 2 weeks.

@billiebob2363
@billiebob2363 2 жыл бұрын
If you're going to dethatch or aerate in the spring do it before putting down a pre-emergent. Think of pre-emergent as a barrier to crabgrass and weeds. Once it's down you don't want to disturb or open up the barrier. As for seeding read the instructions on the pre-emergent product. Most last for 3 or 4 months, some even 6. Seed will not germinate when pre-emergent is active.

Hey Ryan! Question about liquid vs granular. I've heard some others say that if you spray pre-emergent then it would be soaked up by the dead leaf blades vs a granular that would fall down to the soil and go directly into the ground where it's meant to be. What are your thoughts on that? I know you'll always prefer to spray.

It's supposed to be watered in after application so anything sticking to the leaves would be washed into the soil as well. Using a nozzle tip that puts out larger droplets would also help.

It doesn't all happen exactly at that temp. There's been many times in the past where we have a warm spell and then it comes back down. If it was already 55 and trending upward then you would want to make sure to apply as soon as you could.

Would you not recommend putting down a pre-emergent for a 100% KBG lawn that was seeded last fall (September 10th)? I'm located in northern Indiana. The grass is only about 1/2 to an inch tall and does not look very good right now :( I really hope I did not make a mistake choosing KBG.. I'm hoping once it wakes up from the winter and once I feed it that everything will look better. It had great color during germination, but I definitely learned about that sprout and pout phase!

@kevinmiller5467 2 жыл бұрын
If i were you id skip pre-emergent this year because it will only add stress to your brand new KBG. I would put down a starter fertilizer or whatever your soil test recommends. KBG is a spreading grass and given fertilizer it will fill in and look better, by late spring / early summer well past the time to put down pre-emerergent you will have weeds and alot better looking KBG. I'd put down a post emergent like 2,4 D or maybe Tenacity a couple times to kill crabgrass that may have show up.
