Crabgrass is an aggressive, annual wild grass – meaning it will re-grow from its seed each year. Crabgrass typically first appears along the edges of driveways and other paved areas.
Crabgrass Control
It's A Pain In The Grass!
Crabgrass seeds are transported either by animals or in the wind, then germinates when ideal weather conditions are reached. It germinates when soil temperatures are consistently above an average of about 15°C. Which gives us a narrow window to treat it pre-emergent meaning the earlier you take action the better.
How To Identify Crabgrass
- Rolled stems
- Stems may be reddish-purple
- Coarse-textured, wide blades
- Grow outward, star shaped pattern
- Grow in patches on lawn or edges of walkways
How To Control Crabgrass
- Pre-emergent corn-gluten application every April
- Post-care treatments to replace any patches in your lawn ie. Aeration, Overseeding, Topdressing
