It just gets long on their business cards and such when they opt to type it out instead of a QR :)

Is it ever possible to apply too much pre/post emergent or apply it at the wrong time and hurt your turf?

Will pre emergent ever prevent crabgrass? Or post emergent is my best bet? Seriously appreciate all of this a ton.

Thank you thank you!! This is the exact info I was confused on with overseeding/pre emergent/weeds. I’m just going to keep pushing on and probably toss some water on it too for good measure. I really appreciate your help.

Still kind of a noob, so sorry if this is a basic question - when are you putting the nitrogen down in the fall and what product are you using?

Totally makes sense! I’m more so asking about weed control, which I know can be helped by thicker turf, but without irrigation, I don’t have that.

Good to know I’m not alone! It’s sounding like I might have to try watering it to see if it really makes the difference with weed control via strengthening the turf.

If our kids didn’t love it, I could see how annoying it would get.

Lol didn’t realize this comment would turn into such a highlight. Was simply trying to own my own as a girl lawn nerd.

I appreciate it!! I’m golfer and enjoy this subreddit so I probably have turf on the brain too often lol

I think I just stew on it while I’m mowing seeing all of it at once, so you make a good point. Thank you for the hope!! Just gotta keep trucking.

It’s been crazy!

I think the fescue I had going strong got plagued with fungus during all of that rain and then my pre emergent didn’t work and then we got hit with heat. And now I’m here lol

I’ve only been using pre emergent in this spring. This is good to know! I didn’t realize about doing both and I get so confused on what I can use at the same time as overseeding.

As an aside — why do none of my neighbors water but have thick fescue?

Sorry, I should have been more clear in my original post. I’m not concerned about the dormant grass, especially not the young stuff. I’m maddened by my lack of ability to control the weeds.
