Why do I still have weeds in the lawn?

Fairway Green - FAQs
Broadleaf weeds usually take up to 2 weeks to show signs of control. It is only possible to control weeds in the lawn, not eradicate them. Tougher broadleaf weeds may take multiple applications to show results. Broadleaf weeds can only be controlled if they are present and actively growing at the time of application. Fairway Green will use broadleaf weed control with each application when necessary for this reason.

During the season we constantly look for new weed invaders and knock them out if they appear. First, we use only Scotts professional fertilizers—the best in the world and the same ones used on championship golf courses.

Why don't you just fine the people with weeds and use the money to pay for the program?

Frequently Asked Questions - King County Noxious Weed Contro...
When the state passed the law mandating that counties control noxious weeds, it gave counties only two ways to fund the work. They can either use general fund money, for which there is a lot of competition, or they can assess a special dedicated fee on property. It is not a tax, it is a regulatory fee for a service that is available to all landowners and it cannot be imposed selectively. The county has limited authority to fine people who have weeds.

Question: How do I control weeds from growing on my lawn if a natural fertilizer does not kill them?

Frequently Asked Questions
Answer: To control weeds, you can over-seed your lawn twice a year (early spring & early fall) to help prevent weed growth. Mowing your lawn high (4-inches or more) shades out most weed seeds and prevents them from germinating, while also slowing growth (for less frequent mowing) and strengthening the immune system of the grass. Keeping your grass unstressed by providing proper light, water, and nutrients will produce a crop of very thick turf.

How do I control weeds in my Sir Walter lawn?

Atlas Turf - FAQs
Prevention is always better than cure. If a Sir Walter lawn is kept in a healthy and well fertilised condition, weed eradication is rarely necessary. If in the rare circumstance weed spray is required, we suggest that you first heavily fertilise when weeds are noticed, followed by at least two mowings in a three-week period. This will usually reduce the problem to a minimum. If spraying is still required, there are several herbicides that can be used.

What is black spot and what is the best way to treat it?

Ask a Master Gardener
Black spots are formations on the leaves of the plants. The tissue next to the spot turns yellow and the leaves eventually fall off. This disease occurs mostly in humid weather and is spread by spores that form on spots which are then carried from plant-to-plant by rain or sprinkling. One way to prevent black spot is to water roses early in the day, so that the leaves will be dry by nightfall. Also, remove diseased leaves and prune diseased wood before spring growth.
