You can still get effective pre emergent crabgrass control well into May by applying Turf-Pro Green Up plus Dimension. The active ingredient, Dimension (Dithiopyr), will control crabgrass up to the three leaf stage. (Crabgrass is just starting to pop in Central NJ).
Dandelions are easily controlled but there have been quite a few tough weeds popping up this spring. Henbit has been prolific. The classic three-way herbicides will not be effective with tough weeds such as henbit, ground ivy (pictured), wild violets and thistle. Turf-Pro Power Zone is a 4 component weed control that will do the job on these tougher weeds and cut down on the expense of call backs.
Shapening Tips
Tip: Use fine steel wool to clean the blade.
The major fungus problem in May is Red Thread. Red Thread is an indication of Nitrogen deficiency. Just apply a higher nitrogen fertilizer and the turf will recover and grow out of the disease
