Weed Killer

Tim Robbins

Hi,
New house - grass is growing.

I can see weeds coming up already.

What things can I do for the grass?

Is it too early to be getting weed killer?

don't cut the grass too short; it allows it to form deeper roots and compete better against the weeds.

Hi Tim,

there is a herbicide called Re-Act, that kills weeds in lawns but is no harm to grass. It will be only avail. in farm type shops. if your near dublin , NAD near swords have it. Two sprays a year and lawn is good.

Will any of those places take back the empty container?
