Описание: Products → https://www.howtowithdoc.com/march-la...
March is a critical month for lawn and garden care and with temps spiking into the 80s it's critical to take some of these steps now. Doc explains that pre-emergent needs to go on the lawn NOW for most. Also killing off some winter weeds is a great option since lawn weed killers work well with the rising temps. Then Doc starts working on the vegetable garden compost piles.
March is here and the weather is heating up fast! With temperatures jumping into the 80s, your lawn and garden are waking up, and you need to act now. In this video, I walk through the essential March checklist to ensure your property stays healthy and weed-free all season.

Key takeaways from this video:

Pre-Emergents: Don't wait until March 15th—get your pre-emergent down by March 1st if you're in a warmer zone. I explain the split program (granular followed by liquid) to get 85-90% control.

Early Fertilization: Even if your lawn is still dormant, applying a light coat of PGF Complete or PGF Balance now ensures nutrients are in the soil when the grass fully wakes up.

Weed Control: Learn how to manage early winter weeds like clover and henbit, and the right way to use broadleaf killers without affecting your summer growth.

Garden Prep: I show you how to "fire up" your compost pile using Dirt Booster Plus, chicken crumbles, and microbes to reach ideal temperatures in just a few days.

Equipment Maintenance: Don't wait until the shops are backed up for 6 weeks! Get your mowers and tractors serviced now.
