Pre emergent lawn treatments effectively stop targeted weeds by residing in the top layer of your soil and poisoning the germinating weed shoot as it comes in contact with the product, thereby eliminating the weed from emerging as an adult weed plant.<\/p>\n Pre emergent products stop the weed before it really gets a chance to start but there\u2019s a caveat to this and that is application timing<\/em>. Timing is everything in weed control. Pre emergents need to be applied just prior to the optimal conditions for weed seed germination.\u00a0<\/p>\n Optimal weed growth windows are calculated first by season then dialed-in by the monitoring of ground and air temperatures. Every plant (to include weeds) have an optimal temperate climate in which to germinate and thrive. As the climate conditions change throughout the year, some weeds die off and others that thrive in the conditions present in the next season take their place.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n A few of our hardiest Texas weeds cannot be controlled with pre emergent applications due to their mechanisms to proliferate. Dallis Grass and most Sedges require post emergent products applied directly to the active plant to either suppress or control them.<\/p>\n Pre emergent products come in both liquid and granular formulations and routinely contain prodiamine, dithiopyr or pendimethalin as the active ingredient. Most pre emergent products are equally safe for a broad range of adult turf grass types.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ module_id=”what-are-post–emergent-weed-control-products” _builder_version=”4.23.1″ _module_preset=”default” background_color=”#f3f7f0″ custom_padding=”15px|||||” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.23.1″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”-3px|auto||auto||” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.23.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.23.1″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”||||||||” text_text_color=”#0a0707″ text_letter_spacing=”1px” text_line_height=”1.8em” header_font_size=”35px” header_3_line_height=”1.5em” custom_padding=”|30px||20px|false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Post emergent products are the most common and well known forms of weed control.
