Follow a good turf management program along with the weed control program. There are several classes of lawn weeds that require different methods of control at different times during the growing season. No one product or single application will control all weeds for the entire season. Weeds can be taken to the county Research and Extension office for identification. It is best to take several entire plants, including roots, rather than just a leaf.
Fresh samples are easier to identify than wilted or dried samples.
Annual grasses germinate, grow, and produce seeds each year. They resemble desirable turfgrasses in their growth habits, but differ in texture and color. Crabgrass and foxtail are examples of annual grasses. This text was extracted from the publication, MF2385.
