Fall is one of them. With autumn\u00a0weed control applications, you have a proven window in which to treat a wide variety of species. These include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Perennial weeds. <\/strong>Perennial weeds are notoriously stubborn. That&#8217;s because they come back year after year, growing a strong root system in your lawn as they do. But fall offers an ideal time to treat them since they&#8217;re more vulnerable. In fact, weeds are getting ready for winter dormancy, meaning they&#8217;re taking in energy and moving it into the root system. As a result, whatever weed control products you apply will reach the tap root, killing the plant as it does. In the spring, the opposite holds true, when weeds are expending energy upward to support plant growth above ground.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Annual weeds. <\/strong>Winter annuals germinate\u00a0in fall and winter and continue growing\u00a0in springtime. Some common lawn weeds in and around\u00a0the Richmond area\u00a0that require control include henbit, common chickweed, corn speedwell, and purple deadnettle. Once they flower in spring, they then drop seeds in your lawn and die out during summer. While the original weed is gone, these seeds can develop into a whole new crop of annual weeds if you don&#8217;t stop the cycle. That&#8217;s where a fall pre-emergent herbicide can help, so weeds don&#8217;t continue to develop and populate your lawn.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong>Beyond Lawn Weed Control: Other Treatments to Focus on in\u00a0Richmond<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Cultivating a healthy, thick lawn is an ideal way to stop weeds from taking hold in your yard. Fall\u00a0is an excellent time for a variety of\u00a0lawn care treatments in the Richmond area beyond just lawn weed control. Fall is the season to plant the thick, beautiful lawn you want for next year. A fall\u00a0Power Seeding is the most effective process to\u00a0thicken it up and repair bare areas. Proper\u00a0fertilization will\u00a0ensure\u00a0your lawn has access to key nutrients to build strong roots for\u00a0winter survival and a lush lawn\u00a0during spring. When you combine these treatments, you&#8217;ll create a lawn that&#8217;s healthier and heartier, one that can naturally crowd out future weeds.<\/p>\n<p><strong>To learn more, call\u00a0Lawn Doctor of Greater Richmond today at <a href=\"tel:(804) 550-3800\" data-cke-saved-href=\"tel:(804) 550-3800\">(804) 550-3800<\/a>.
