Removing weedsWeed Identification Weed detection is the first step toward chemical control and the pest must be correctly identified before herbicide to control it can be selected. Several inexpensive detection guides are available at most bookstores. Most of these guides contain colour photographs as well as written descriptions to help the homeowner. Lawn weeds can be grouped into one of three broad classes like grasses, sedges or broadleaf. Control Most of the turf-production practices are not only intended as weed control methods but help control weeds. This includes use of soil tests to maintain recommended pH, timely addition of rates of fertilizer, controlled irrigation during periods of limited rainfall, insects and disease management and proper mowing. Bare soil is a prime area for weed raid. Bare areas should be reseeded, plugged or left for adjacent grass to grow into. Areas reseeded should be covered with mulch like grain straw until turf fills the area. Regardless of how well one manages the turf, weed seed germinate and seedlings emerge. The person should rely on other control methods when this occurs. Some scattered weeds like wild garlic can be removed by hand. However, hand removal is a tedious and time-consuming process. Herbicides that will reduce the time required to control weeds are available in the market and can help to control weeds easily. Comments |
