However, did you also know it&#8217;s a good time in the West Ashley and Charleston, SC area\u00a0to focus on other\u00a0tasks, including lawn weed control? When you do, you can take aim at a few of the most stubborn and common kinds in your lawn. Here&#8217;s why.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Lawn Weed Control: Why Fall is Prime Time in the\u00a0West Ashley and Charleston Area<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-1047 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lawndoctor.com\/summerville-sc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/100\/2017\/03\/stand-on-TT-016-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"backyard on sunny day in neighborhood showing lawn weed control in West Ashley\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lawndoctor.com\/summerville-sc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/100\/2017\/03\/stand-on-TT-016-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.lawndoctor.com\/summerville-sc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/100\/2017\/03\/stand-on-TT-016-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.lawndoctor.com\/summerville-sc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/100\/2017\/03\/stand-on-TT-016-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.lawndoctor.com\/summerville-sc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/100\/2017\/03\/stand-on-TT-016.jpg 1440w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>When temperatures drop in the fall, certain weeds called perennials start going into a state of dormancy. As they do, they begin to store up energy reserves for the winter. That means they&#8217;re absorbing carbohydrates down into the root system from the foliage above. When\u00a0you apply an herbicide to these weeds, it too will get absorbed, reaching and destroying\u00a0the tap root as it does.<\/p>\n<p>This is important because perennial weeds are notoriously stubborn. Being perennial means they grow back in your lawn for several years. As they do, they establish strong root systems that can be tough to treat since they run deep. And if you don&#8217;t fully eradicate the root with hand removal or other treatments, then the weed will simply re-generate and re-grow.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to perennials, winter annuals \u2013 including poa anna, common chickweed, henbit, and dandelion \u2013 are another lawn weed type common to the West Ashley and Charleston area you can more easily target and control in the fall. That&#8217;s because this is the season when they&#8217;re germinating and just starting to develop. As young, tender plants that haven&#8217;t yet emerged through the soil, making them far more susceptible to treatment. A pre-emergent application works best since it&#8217;s specifically designed for these developing weeds.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Beyond Lawn Weed Control: Other Treatments to Focus on in West Ashley<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>When it comes to fall yard care in the West Ashley and Charleston area, it&#8217;s important to do more than just lawn weed control. In addition to these treatments, make sure you&#8217;re also fertilizing\u00a0too.
