Weed identification
Crabgrass is a highly invasive annual grassy weed that can quickly spread throughout your lawn. It will crowd out healthy turf and create unsightly patches. It thrives in thin, stressed, or weakened grass areas and grows aggressively during warm weather.
Dollar weed (also known as pennywort) is a fast-spreading broadleaf weed that thrives in moist, overwatered lawns. Its round, lily pad-shaped leaves can quickly take over healthy turf, creating an uneven appearance and competing with grass for nutrients, water, and sunlight.
Black medic is a low-growing broadleaf weed that can quickly spread across lawns, landscapes, and bare soil areas. Recognizable by its clover-like leaves and small yellow flowers, black medic thrives in compacted, nutrient-deficient soils. It can create dense patches that detract from the appearance of an otherwise healthy lawn.
Curly dock is a persistent broadleaf weed known for its long, wavy-edged leaves and deep taproot system. It commonly occurs in lawns and disturbed soil. It competes with grass for water, nutrients, and sunlight. If left untreated, curly dock can spread through seed production.
Sedge, commonly known as nutsedge. It is one of the most stubborn and fast-growing weeds found in lawns. Often mistaken for grass, sedge grows faster than the surrounding turf. It thrives in moist, poorly drained soils and can quickly spread through underground tubers and rhizomes.
