Spring bulbs add fun
What, you say? your yard is not all smiles and tulips? If it is like many yards here in the high desert’s Victor Valley, you can hardly find your yard underneath all the weeds! The weeds love spring too!
It is time to start thinking about carving out more time to enjoy your yard and what it will take to do that. Planning is the key. You must think ahead to get on top of the problems.
We are puttin down weed preventer and weed killer by the gallons this spring. But, if you planned ahead, the best time to do that is before the weeds show up, in the winter. December, January and February are best. Most people like to gamble they wont get so many weeds during the winter, but the smart ones, prepare ahead and are spending their spring enjoying the results of their winter planning.
If you missed the boat and are swamped with weeds both in your lawn, (can you say dandelions?) and in your yard, its not too late. Put down a weed killer and weed preventer. Call us. We will do it for you.
Hey, Its soooo nice out. I’m enjoying the sun. It’s been so wet lately. We had 5 inches of rain in just 5 days last week here in Phelan. I KNOW that all that rain here in the high desert is going to stimulate all the weed seeds lurking under the soil just waiting for the opportunity to pop up and ruin your weekends this spring. It’ll be really nice and warm and all those weeds will be calling your name.
Get rid of them before they start. Put down a weed preventer, called pre-emergent. It works amazingly. We put down a lot of it this time of year for our clients. Some of our clients are smart and do it every year, sometimes twice a year before the weeds show up. Others, just wait it out hoping the weeds won’t show and they won’t have to spend the money. Dry years the gamblers sometimes win. Wet years, not so much.
I think Benjamin Franklin said “An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.” I think this applies here.
