GOOD TO GROW: Weeds

  Weeds are a pesky problem.  There are so many different kinds of weeds sprouting in our landscape, it can be overwhelming.  However, all we really need to know is whether a weed is broadleaf or grassy.  Once we figure that out, we can determine the best solution for eliminating them from our yards.   

Here are some helpful links on weed types, control, and prevention.  https://pender.ces.ncsu.edu/2014/02/applying-pre-emergent-herbicides-to-lawns/http://www.clemson.edu/extension/hgic/pests/pdf/hgic2310.pdf  (If you have question about how this information translates to us here in the southwest, call the Texas AgriLife Extension at 915-771-2354!)
