Pre-emergent is best applied after aeration to reduce the chance of weed invasion in the yard while grass is spreading to the cored holes. Do not apply pre-emergent if you intend to over-seed.

The majority of pre-emergents prevent germination for all types of seeds. A newer pre-emergent under the name Tupersan is a selective pre-emergent that can be used at the time of seeding to prevent weed seed germination and allow grass seed germination.

Pre-emergent applications put down a microscopic layer on the soil that prevents many seeds from sprouting, including crabgrass. This invisible shield is usually put down in early spring before the soil temperature reaches 60 degrees. It remains active throughout the spring and most of the summer months when the seeds begin to germinate, unless the soil is vigorously raked or dug up.

The treatment usually dries within 2 hours. However, we recommend that you keep children and pets off the lawn for about 12 hours if possible. Avoid mowing the lawn for 24 hours after the treatment and set your mowing height to about 3". Yes! Just let us know and we can apply a special pre-emergent formulation that will allow you to plant grass seed. But we must know ahead of time.

In general, graduate schools expect you to have completed all pre-requisites by the application deadline. Those that make exceptions usually say so in their bulletin or on the application. But you should know that even if you are not required to complete pre-requisites until after a decision has been made on your application, you will most likely be at a disadvantage compared with applicants who have already completed them.

Many weeds can be controlled with a pre-emergent to prevent weed seeds from germinating and growing. Remove weeds when they are small by hand-pulling or hoeing. Entrenched weeds can be removed with a glyphosate herbicide (such as Roundup). NEVER use strong weed killers (labeled as brush and stump remover, driveway & sidewalk killer etc.) or soil sterilants such as TRIOX.

If it's been over 24 hours, there's no need to reapply any of our weeds control products. Some products are rain-fast in less time, though, so check the label of the product you used to determine if you need to reapply. Wait and see if you are getting results before you retreat your lawn.
