However, in the Fort Collins area, there is one step every homeowner should take in their yards this fall: lawn weed control. Fall offers a prime point of the year to get the upper hand over even the most stubborn weeds so you can produce a healthier lawn in the seasons ahead. Here&#8217;s a look at the kinds of weeds you can focus on with fall treatments:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Perennials. <\/strong>When it comes to perennials, fall offers an excellent time for treating\u00a0them due to how they grow. Once the cooler temperatures hit Fort Collins, they start storing up carbohydrates and other energy sources to get ready for the winter weather ahead. These funnel through the plant into the root system down below. So when you apply a weed control product in fall targeting these perennials, you can reach the taproot faster and more effectively. This is as opposed to springtime\u00a0when energy is moving upward to the leaves above ground.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Winter annuals.<\/strong> Weeds, including\u00a0deadnettle, chickweed, and henbit, are winter annuals, meaning they germinate and grow in fall, over winter, and then emerge in spring to flower and set seed, dying off in summer.\u00a0These weeds\u00a0thrive in lower temperatures and will start developing in your yard once cooler weather hit. In Fort Collins, it&#8217;s\u00a0best to control these lawn weeds in fall just as they&#8217;re emerging. As young plants, they&#8217;re more vulnerable than those that are more mature, so you&#8217;ll have an easier time treating them in the fall.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>In addition to the weeds above, applying a fall lawn weed treatment can help to weaken weeds as winter weather approaches. As a result, once temperatures drop and harsh weather strikes, it can be harder for them to survive through it and grow back in come spring.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Beyond Lawn Weed Control: Other Fall Treatments in\u00a0Fort Collins<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>In addition to lawn weed control, other treatments, such as fertilization and aeration, are also ideally performed in the fall. These will set your lawn up for healthier growth in the spring, thanks to improved soil conditions and well-nourished turf. Combined with weed control treatments, you&#8217;ll achieve a\u00a0better-looking lawn with stronger\u00a0natural defenses against future weeds.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Lawn Doctor of Fort Collins has been the local source for lawn weed control\u00a0since 1983.
