Over the past couple of months we have been in full swing, mowing lawns, pulling and spraying to remove weeds and tree saplings (which have been particularly heavy this year).  We have completed the second turf treatment, with a combined application of post emergent and pre-emergent weed control.  The two applications applied in the spring control most common weeds, but may not control all weeds, particularly some summer weeds.  We will be monitoring your lawn for summer weeds, and will propose additional treatments, if needed.  If you notice weed issues and haven’t heard from us with recommendations, please call the office for a consultation.  We have also begun the first round of pruning, so if you have not seen us on your property yet, be assured we will start soon.
