I started JD’s Lawn Care because I wanted to build something of my own while providing a service that people genuinely need. Growing up, I learned the value of hard work and taking pride in what you do, and lawn care gave me a way to turn that mindset into a business. I noticed that many homeowners either didn’t have the time, equipment, or energy to keep their yards looking the way they wanted, and I saw an opportunity to step in and help while creating a steady source of income for myself.\n\nStarting JD’s Lawn Care was also about independence. I didn’t want to rely on someone else to determine my schedule, my income, or my future. By running my own business, I’m able to take control of those things and push myself to grow every day. Each lawn I take care of is a reflection of my work ethic and attention to detail, and that motivates me to keep improving.\n\nAnother big reason I started this company is the satisfaction that comes from seeing immediate results.

Weed Services questions, answered by experts

Buffalo grass does not turn green as early in the spring as some other grasses. If you have a heavily shaded yard, buffalo grass may not receive enough sunlight to thrive. It’s not as dense as some other grass varieties, so it may not feel as comfortable on bare feet.

It’s best to pull weeds when the soil is wet, as it’s much easier. Wet soil is much softer than dry soil, making it easier to pull the entire weed up by the root. Also, since the soil is wet, the roots will let go of the soil and slide up with less resistance. Be careful when working on your wet garden, though, as wet soil is easier to compact, which can harm your plants.

The best time to hire a weed service company is in the early spring. This allows them to apply a pre-emergent weed killer that stops weeds from taking root, making maintenance for the rest of the season much easier. Following the initial spring application, a monthly service through the summer and early fall is a good idea for ongoing weed control. These regular treatments, combined with manual removal or spot treatment, should be sufficient to maintain a weed-free yard. Alternatively, you can hire a professional in the fall for the following year, as some companies may offer better rates on contracts signed before the busy spring season.

You should add 1 to 4 inches of mulch, depending on your garden type and needs. Keep in mind that no amount of mulch can completely prevent weeds, but a heavier coverage (closer to 4 inches) can suppress weeds enough that you are only seeing them sprout every few weeks. Finer mulch prevents weeds more effectively than large mulch, so if you’re using mulched leaves or shredded bark, 1 to 2 inches will likely suffice, while 3 to 4 inches is best for larger mulch, like bark chips or straw.

Yes, weeds will grow through pea gravel but you can prevent this during the installation process. Install a weed barrier underneath pea gravel and swap it out every three years to keep weeds at bay.
