The most common lawn-care regret we hear in spring is the same every year: the weeds are already up. The truth is that the best weed control happens weeks before anything is visible.
Pre-emergent treatments create a barrier in the soil that stops weed seeds — crabgrass especially — from establishing. Applied at the right soil temperature in late winter, one pass prevents a summer of pulling and spot-spraying.
Timing beats strength
In our area, soil temperatures climb into the pre-emergent window earlier than many homeowners expect. Miss it by a couple of weeks and the barrier goes down after seeds have already sprouted.
Our ECO Healthy Lawn program includes pre-emergent and post-emergent control on a schedule built around local soil conditions, so the timing isn't left to guesswork.
