My lawn consists of ugly grasses with different types of textures and growing habits, why are they there?
A. It is very common to have some undesirable grasses in the lawn. Creeping Bent, Tall Fescue, Zoysia, and Poa Annua are examples of common unwanted grasses. These grass varieties are usually not intentionally planted, but the reason they are in your lawn is their seed is simply in the soil. The soil your lawn grows from holds billions of seeds. Some are broad leaf weeds and some are undesirable grasses. They can also stay dormant for many years, waiting for the perfect opportunity to germinate. Broad leaf weeds are generally easy to control, but grassy weeds like the varieties mentioned above are very difficult to selectively control. In many cases, a non-selective herbicide (Round UP Pro) is necessary to kill out unwanted grasses and then seeding is needed to repair dead areas. It is important to understand that this process only controls the existing growth and not the seeds in the soil. Call for more info.
