No more WEEDS in your Yard! | Cool Season Lawn - Part 2 | 2020/17
Channel: Dad It Yourself DIY

This video is all about removing weeds from your lawn and yard.  It is Spring in the Pacific Northwest. And for me that means preparing my yard and lawn for coming season.  This video is the second part of a series, that will show the common man how to maintain his lawn with items from the big box stores, and not have to go through the challenges of purchasing professional grade materials, herbicides, and seeds to have an amazing lawn that makes your neighbors jealous.

I started off by mowing, trimming, and edging may lawn to its regular height, for me that’s about 3”.  This helps be see the large patches of weeds that will need attention.  In this video I am going to tackle the weed, both in the lawn and in the landscape beds.

I talk about the difference between a selective and a non0selctive herbicide, when and how to use a pre-emergent, and other methods like manual removal and organic weed control.

Check out the video and see how I did it, do not forget to put your questions and suggestions in the comments!
