Spring marks the start of the new growing season for your lawn in Oklahoma, but the same goes for weeds! Weeds will steal nutrients and other resources from your grass, so it's crucial to get rid of them to ensure it can access everything it needs to start the spring season on the right foot. Fortunately, that's where weed control treatments come in! You'll want to utilize pre- and post-emergent treatments to prevent newly germinated weeds from surfacing and eliminate existing growth. For even better results, consider fertilizing your lawn along with applying weed control in the spring. Fertilization provides your grass with the necessary nutrients to kickstart its growth and vibrant green color!

Weeds will steal nutrients from your lawn, hindering it from thriving in the spring.

Weeds can wreak havoc on your lawn, especially in the spring. These plants compete with your grass for essential resources, such as nutrients, water, and sunlight, thereby preventing it from thriving. After all, it needs these resources to emerge from winter dormancy and start the new growing season on the right track, and weeds make it more difficult to do so. Therefore, it is crucial to take measures to control and remove weeds from your lawn to maintain its beauty and health.

Common weeds in Oklahoma include dallisgrass, chickweed, dandelions, and nutsedge.

What type of weed control should you use in the spring?

For effective weed control in the spring, you'll want to use a combination of pre-emergent and post-emergent treatments. Pre-emergent herbicides are applied before weed seeds germinate, creating a barrier that prevents them from growing through the surface. These treatments are ideal for controlling weeds and can be applied in early spring before soil temperatures reach optimal germination conditions.

Post-emergent herbicides, on the other hand, are used to target weeds that have already sprouted. They are applied directly to the weeds, where they seep into the ground and kill them at their roots. By combining both pre- and post-emergent treatments in the spring, you can effectively manage weed growth and ensure your lawn stays free of these pesky nutrient thieves at the start of the growing season!

Give your grass a kickstart by incorporating fertilization treatments with spring weed control.

Incorporating fertilization treatments alongside weed control efforts during the spring offers several benefits for your lawn. Fertilization helps maintain a healthy, robust lawn by providing essential nutrients that promote strong root development, vibrant color, and overall growth. When used in conjunction with weed control treatments, your lawn can maximize the nutrients from the fertilizers without any competition. That way, it stays equally healthy and beautiful in the spring!

Granular fertilizers release nutrients gradually over time, providing your lawn with long-lasting nourishment.
