CALLOWAY'S TIMELY TIPS FOR MARCH GARDENERS
Enjoy a Weed-Free Lawn
What do you do when the only green going on in your lawn is of the weedy version?
First, prevention is the best policy. Apply a pre-emergent now to prevent the summer broadleaf and
grassy weeds. Green Light Crabgrass Preventer can be applied using your fertilizer spreader. Its
purpose is to prevent grassy weeds from appearing during the summer months. Green Light Portrait
can also be applied the same way and will prevent broadleaf weeds from sprouting.
Follow these products up with Calloway's Premium Lawn food to add that extra punch to green up and enrich the existing turf.
Water these products in well. You will need to apply the pre-emergent's again in September to prevent the winter grassy and broadleaf weeds.
To take care of the existing problems, spray with a broadleaf weed killer to eliminate those pesky weeds which made it
through the winter. A product, such as Wipe-Out, can be applied with a hose-end sprayer. Follow directions carefully!
The best method for a lush, green lawn, is to develop a routine fertilization and watering program. A thick lawn will
squeeze out and prevent weeds from growing. A little discipline now will reap the rewards later.
