Yard Work/Lawn Service

May 1st, 2006 at 08:05 am

Working around the yard to eradicate weeds. Geez...seems hopeless.

I waited too long to use pre-emergent weed killer. Pulling by hand, and spot treating where possible.

Hope that fertilizer will make the "good" grass spread and choke out many of the "unwanteds".

I was visited by a lawn care service a few weeks ago, and I almost gave in to the service, but I decided to give it a try on my own. At least until the summer heat becomes unbearable...I'll do the work myself. I need the exercise and enjoy working in the yard.

    Have you tried solid (not perforated) black plastic? or a few inches of mulch?

    Heh, heh...a lot of these weeds are edible. If you catch them young and use no herbicide you could have salad!
