Organic weed control for Your lawn.
Although organic weed control consists of organic sprays, fertilizers with pre-eminent weed control, etc. we also like to make aware to our customers of long-term organic methods that while at first may take longer to see and gain the desired results, but over time provide environment friendly long lasting weed control.
One of our most practiced organic weed control methods is to mow the lawn higher (around 3 1/2" to 4"). The reason behind this is easy to explain. Whenever you cut the lawn higher, the grass blades remain high enough to gather the sun light (grass food) instead of surrendering it to the ingrown, overwhelming weeds. Grass uses the blades near the tip to collect food, while weeds collect food more toward the base where leaf like parts are grown. Cutting the lawn low results in the grass reproducing the blades as fast as possible, while loosing stored food and nutrients, making them extremely week. The already strong weeds win the battle against the week growing grass and receive more sunlight. Whenever you raise the mowing height high, the grass does not have to fight for the sunlight. They are already above the weeds and able to bring in more food, thus causing the weeds to become week, and eventually dying off. It is kind of like giving the grass a nice haircut, while chopping the heads off of the weeds.
Grassy weed removal.
| Grassy weeds look like grass. In fact, that is what they are, but they are considered invasive weeds when they crop up in your lawn. Grassy weeds have hollow, rounded stems with small flowers and parallel veins on the leaves. Grassy weed types include annual grasses such as crab grass, goose grass, barnyard grass, fall panicum, and yellow foxtail. |

Sedge weed removal.
Sedge weeds also look and grow like just like grass; however, they are not grass, they are weeds. Sedge weeds have solid un-jointed stems and are usually found in marshes and bogs. The reason it is important to separate these weeds from true grass is that most herbicides for grassy weed control don't work on sedge weeds. These types of weeds are one of the hardest weeds to control, are rapidly growing and aggressive, and can take over a lawn. Some common sedge weeds are yellow and purple nut sedge, wild onion or garlic, and Star of Bethlehem. These weeds can be annual or perennial.
Broadleaf weed removal.
| Broadleaf Weeds are the most common type of weed found in gardens. They have broad leaves that are wide and flat; veins in the leaves are net-like. Broadleaf weeds include dandelions, ground ivy, white clover, chick weeds, carpet weed, and violets. They are one of the most common weeds in Pennsylvania. |
