Question: | "There are a lot of weeds on our courts and we would be grateful if you could suggest a suitable material to remove them." |
Answer/Response: | "It is a little late for any weed control work using selective herbicides but you could probably do much to control the weeds by carefully removing the larger ones by hand with a knife, small fork or some similar implement. Any work with selective herbicides should now be delayed until the spring when the young sward on renovated areas has matured and more vigorous grass growth is being made. We suggest that a selective weedkiller is used next year paying careful attention to the manufacturer's recommendations regarding the rate of application. A repeat treatment may be made after about one month if necessary. Suitable periods of good grass growth for such work usually occur some 10-14 days after fertilizer application." |
