Lawn Care (New lawn care) Products

May 17th, 2008

Lawn care products are of vital importance in maintaining the luster and condition of lawns. The use of lawn care products ensures that less labor is needed in developing and maintaining a lawn to suitable requirements. There is a diverse range of lawn care products available, and proper application is the road to a successful lawn.

Weeds are a major nuisance in proper lawn care. In order to ensure that the lawn is weed-free one should keep the lawn as dense as possible. If the grass is dense and even, weeds find it difficult to take root and grow. Thin or weak grass facilitates the growth of weeds and causes great damage to the texture and appearance of the lawn.

There are commonly two kinds of weeds - grassy weeds, like crabgrass, foxtail and other unwanted grasses; and broadleaf weeds, like dandelions, ground ivy and chickweed.

Normally, products that keep broadleaf weeds in check do not curb grassy weeds. However, products have emerged that combine the elements necessary for both grassy and broadleaf weed check.

The best weed control is achieved when weeds are new and aggressively developing. The perfect time to use a weed control product is on a temperate day after it rains, and when there is not much wind to blow the spray onto flowers or other plants.

If the lawn has abundant weeds, an extensive use of spray spread over the total lawn may be essential to keep them in check. Such sprays control over 30 types of broadleaf weeds.

If a thick, lush green lawn is already in place, spot-treatment of separate weeds or patches of weeds may be adequate. There are lawn care products intended for spot treatment purposes.
