- Crabgrass preventer. Apply a crabgrass pre-emergence preventer between the first and third mow of the spring.
- Feed regularly. A thick and healthy lawn is less welcoming to weeds, keep your lawn nourished with regular feeding to promote thick grass.
- Water deeply. Watering deeply helps the roots of your lawn to grow deeper so that your roots can better compete with weeds.
- Mulch. A layer of mulch over your garden soil will overpower and inhibit weed growth.
