Get matched with top weed maintenance pros in Gravette, AR

The safest method to avoid killing your turf grass is hand pulling Johnsongrass. You can also apply vinegar for a safer herbicide, but it will still burn your lawn if it gets on it.

There are a few things you should ask a weed service company before hiring to ensure you’re choosing the best professional for the job:

• How often will you apply herbicides?

• Do you include any spot treatments or manual weed removal in your pricing?

• Do you offer pet-safe and kid-safe herbicides?

• What other lawn services can you provide?

• Do you offer any kind of guarantee for the work performed?

• Are you properly licensed and fully insured?

• Do you have any customer references I could speak with?

The best time to fight crabgrass with pre-emergent herbicide is when forsythias tend to bloom. In the mid-Atlantic region, this is usually between April and May. Even if you're late to apply the herbicide, it’s effective as long as the crabgrass plant has fewer than five leaves.

Yellow leaves and stems on your sprouts indicate they’re not getting enough light. Keep them near the appropriate light source and give them as much as they need (they require longer exposure to fluorescence than they do to natural light sources).
