Bluegrass – Removing Now Or Pre-Emergent Later?
Q: I have annual bluegrass in my zoysia lawn. Will it do any good to dig up these plants?
A: They have already dropped thousands of seeds. It’s best to wait until mid-September and control with a pre-emergent. Remember that it is critical to apply at the correct time and to water the chemical into the soil afterward.
