- How to apply spring pre emergent to your lawn. MORE INFO: www.howtowithd... Doc shows you how to apply your lawn spring pre emergent and some rules to follow. Spring Pre-emergent is the most important step for a great lawn. Follow the simple lawn care plan.
Pre Emergents prevent weeds from starting so we don't have to use weed sprays during the peak lawn growing season. Doc often says that lawn pre-emergents are the most important of his lawn program.
In this video Doc breaks down the step by step process of applying lawn pre emergents.

Great video Doc. Just remember, Jacob may be young and strong, but old age and cunning defeats youth and skill every time. Us old guys need to stick together!
Great video! Rules start at 5:15
Wait was that Doc Holliday after he was sworn in by Wyatt Erp? 😂 Thanks Doc!!
Wish we had a pre-emergent for the Cornavirus right about now... 😉
I’m sure China has the cure...they’re just waiting for the right time.
Don't eat chinese food
No doubt. This crap is getting serious..............
Doc, why are you going to seed across the street? I thought typically you wanted to push the existing grass to spread.
1- grubs have destroyed existing Bermuda. 2- People always ask about seeding. Why not show it.
How long do you water after applying 30 min? A shot of water from shower setting on hose?
Good clear to the point information like this is hard to come by these days. Thanks for doing all you do. Guy knows his stuff.
I love your videos! Thanks for the content. Could someone help me with figuring a couple of areas of my yard that have rounded shapes. I divided it up in as many rectangles and triangles as I could. I have a photo that shows measurement.
Doc...you have said in a previous video NOT to over seed Bermuda. How do you make the decision whether or not to do so? i.e. vs letting the berm spread naturally or plugs / sprigs???
I am currently trying to decide whether or not to over seed mine and that decision is why I have not put out my spring pre-emergent. Grass was plagued last few years by crab grass and clover which are now under control, but the grass is weak in many areas....
If you have ANY kind of base Bermuda then push it... the area across the street is 100% gone due to grubs.
How To with Doc Thanks Doc!
Doc is a wealth of knowledge! Listen to him and then execute his plan and you will see amazing results. I did!
you are correct my friend. I get the fact that others are pushing products but I can say his products are legit. I will continue trying others as well but his stuff stands true.
I stumped across Doc 2 years ago, turned my yard around!
What sprayer to put down Dimension 2EW Dithiopyr Pre-Emergent Herbicide - 1/2 Gal? BTW thanks for the videos.
Awesome 🔥👊 love that drone footage man. That’s brilliant I think I’m gonna invest into a drone for my channel
Is that drone auto tracking you?
Hey Doc, what rate should I put out for PGF Complete in the spring?
That's a great grandpa!
I can do aeration + pre emergent, the same day
weeds that are really tough to kill like... chamberbitter!
Seems like every video has the perfect balance of info and entertainment.
Do you or will you have a video on seeding. Mine looks like the “worlds worst”. I did the pre emerg and I’m sure it’s gonna kill stuff that I was actually calling grass.
Yes, but look here: www.bermudalawnguide.com/
Thanks doc
Love the shots with your drone following you around.
Can you explain how I put down pre emergent and did everything to prepare for the winter/early spring weeds but it didn’t work? I have weed all around my edges and spots all around yet every house on my street has zero weeds and they don’t even treat. Do these products actually fill my yard with weeds?? Are my neighbors sabotaging me?? Lol
sounds like your neighbors planted their weeds in your yard so they don't get caught by the cops
Can’t wait to be learned, thanks doc!
Great information Doc. Thank you for all the information you give.
Love the great tips and info and yes my yard is looking awesome my pre emergent is out and I'm actually ready for March-April applications
Waiting not so patiently for the Humichar. I check multiple times a day. Really hope I don't miss out when it does finally go on sale. Bring on spring!
Great video Doc, second season using Andersons pre emergent. I love all there products.
What rate did you use?
Hey Doc, I have the AgriFab spreader and just bought the Anderson's pre-emergent. Do you have a recommended spreader setting?
The NUMBERS vary based on the install... so visually look for about 3/8" of a gap. That should get you close.
Sure wish you had a centipede lawn :)
Lynn Cauthen I have been taking care of turf for over 20 years. Cut your centipede turf at 2.5 inches. You will have very little weeds. It will be very healthy. Trust a professional! All my centipede yards are beautiful and I might get 5 weeds in my yards all year. And I just pull them by hand. Save you a lot of money.
Do you cut the grass first and then put down pre-emergent
Billy Henderson I do but didn’t see him do it 🧐🧐🧐🧐🧐🧐
PHIL MY 392💪🏽🤘🏽🤙🏽 he cuts his grass like every 2-3 days so assume it’s always cut before applying anything.
What name brand PE would you recommend for warm grasses or ie. Augustine?
www.howtowithdoc.com/spring-pre-emergent/ The DG there will work fine.
@@HowTowithDoc DG? I'm still learning doc LoL
Go it so the Anderson's pro turf barricade granular pre emergent should work for the st. Augustine. What liquid would you recommend for the split
"Currently unavailable "....is that Humichar's generic name?
YES....... about to kick Amazon in the butt.... they have had a truck for 2 weeks.
Fescue, another season of adapting techniques to a fescue lawn......split, stacking, organics, etc.......
works. My lawn is amazing, I listen to Doc, closely.
I’m here in BridgeMill.... sunny as can be out with rain blowing in! So tomorrow is the application day!
Woodstock area. I’ll be doing mine tomorrow also.
Hopefully you chopped it off by now but just a PSA to never trim your neck that high when growing a beard. Looks good from the front, look like a clown from the side. Love your vids
I’ve been enjoying your RUclips shows I have a question I have a Moss yard north slope is moss and creeping red
fescue I would like to keep them all I needed you some pre-emergent it may be put down to 101010
I want to make sure I don’t hurt the moss
part of it in the winter time at the Greene‘s yard in the Count can you give me some guidance on how to handle this yard I also have
wild violets trying to get rid of them thank you I live in the upstate of South Carolina zone seven thank you very much
I need a little help..as far as herbisides...i have purple dead nettle, dandilion, white clover morning glory or snow something. (Its a purple flower with tulip like green stem leaves not wild violet). I have used baracade preemergent in january then again late march. Then sprayed dimesion along with other insectiside and surfactant. A week later i spot treated the weeds again with tenacity but nothing is killing these weeds. Nothing is killing these weeds. And i cant find anything to kill purple dead nettle i have been reading all labels on do my own website. Any recomendations that might help me. I have kentuky blue.
I stopped caring about wearing goofy shit back in my teen's, heck even today at some point I had a box on my head as a hat at work
Doc. Can you do a split treatment of PE reverse of your concept. liquid then granular? asking because i have just recently applied prodiamine which according to my dosage will last until about half way through summer. should i apply a granular still? (prodiamine was sprayed with my trimec southern)
The reason for our order.... is the POST killing effects of the DIMENSION.... it kills young crabgrass as well as prevents new.
@@HowTowithDoc thanks for the response!
Ok. This is year 2 of the lawn. I used ore emergent year 1 not knowing you weren’t supposed to. Too many weeds. Now, why is this wrong? What does it cause?
Give me the name of DG granular particle. I am a woman I want my lawn to look good. When you got to Lowe's or home depot they cant help they didn't know anything. Please help me
So I bought a house last year and the sod was put in May can I put 0.48 barricade in this year buy March?
WOW pre emergent can be sprayed to kill post emergent did not know that. Who would of though that.
when do you apply pre emergent in southern california...my poa anna is already covering my bermuda grass here in march
Do I scalp.before I use PE?
Howdy Doc,
I need Yer help Partner.
I too tried to kill some weeds (some kind of nasty low growing vine type clover thing) in my Zoysia Grass over this warm wet winter... here in Virginia (King George, VA between DC & Richmond) but rain limited that effectiveness.
Well I bought the Andersons Barricade 0.48% Pre-Emergent weed control. I suspect since my Zoysiagrass is the "dormant-tan" color & I can easily see those pesky green clover vine spreading things & this Barricade can't help with that.
WHAT would you recommend for killing those tough low growing small clover vine weeds ???
All my neighbors have these weeds too and they do seem to make my Zoysiagrass struggle!
By the way, late spring & later summer I used PGF Complete & Humic DG... in the fall I also did another application of the Andersons Humic DG too.
Doc need some advice. My yard was sodded in July but have some areas that sod didn't take. I have been going back and forth with the sod company and the builder finally said the landscape co will be coming sometime this spring to fix the bear spots. I'm in Springtown Tx and am starting to get the weeds. Is it okay to still spread the PE. I unfortunately didn't buy The Andersons DG, but a Scotts brand!😡 I aslo was thinking of overseeing with something like Laprima XD but didn't know when to do that or if I should this soon. Any advice would be greatly appreciated because I'm striving for the best looking yard in the neighborhood!
Sorry had to stock up on humichar. It’s probably all here in NC 😁
Doc, what if we just found you and the Burmuda guide and we missed the Pre emergent window? Just wait until next year? Proceed with the BioAdvanced weed klller? Got my PGF and my HumiChar but have not applied it until I tackle the weed patches. Thanks for all you do for us!
Where can I get pre emergent granular for st augustine grass. Is it sold at home Depot and Lowe's
That’s the shit. Use a drone as a showcase to follow you around for RUclips viewers to view your yard. Hands free. 👍🏾
Hey Doc/Doc fans, pre emergent product question for y’all. I have about 5k sq feet of Bermuda. If I do the split treatment (granular in Feb. spray Dimension after mid March) I’ll have leftover dimension spray. If I buy the bottle, will the extra last 12 months so I can finish it off the following year? If not, would an alternative treatment be to just spray something like Bayer Advanced weed control instead of Dimension? Dimension seems great, but isn’t portioned for anything smaller than 10k sq feet.
Hi Doc, Waiting for Amazon to get the 50 lb bags of Anderson's DG ,48% in, What's a good baseline setting for my new Agrifab spreader? Thanks, Tom
Super new with bermuda! here and I think im past the pre emergent phase. What should I do if I have weeds popping up already and i have a good "green haze" across my lawn? do i scalp and then apply post-emergent everywhere where weeds like to sprout?
Which is the recommended Bermuda seed to use, I just scalped my lawn and I used the cheap PH meter and it was toward the left meaning alkaline. I ordered top soil to be delivered this weekend. I would appreciate your insite.
Doc, I am in north louisiana and I have a st augustine grass. will this pre emergent work for that? also, I did a weed and feed about 10 days ago, can I apply a PE now or should I wait?
Some of these Southern weeds you can only control and not kill it to the root. Just do a liquid application after the grass has had time to grow at least a couple months before it gets hotter than hatties down here.
Is not adding preemergent to sod just for bermuda grass. I have tall fescue/rye area that I sodded last May. Can I had pre emergent to that this season?
Doc i just moved into a new house(new build) the sod is Bermuda the rest is a cemetery lol... what do can i do as of now to start treating everything?? i just started watching your videos so im sure im late to the calender
Do you have a product Pre emergent that allows you to put new grass seed down in a short time?
I seeded a new lawn last year with good growth but still needs work. Can I use a pre emergent this spring and level the lawn and seed in the fall? I have a cool season lawn.
Watch the video twice just to make sure I understood what you were saying. Oh we as grandparents will do anything to please our grandchildren.
Your videos are extremely valuable for me, thank you. I have just moved into a new construction home. They laid Sod Bermuda. It has started turning green. Do you see any problem laying Pre-Emergent and PGF Complete. Looking at your calendar, it appears I apply pre-emergent through end of April and PGF Complete to June. Is that a weekly/monthly or one application from April through June? What would be your recommendation? Thanks again...looking forward to my yard getting healthy and green.
hey Doc..! Hello from Greece! can i use pendimethalin in black jack that it is established for about two years??
Spring pre-emergent? It's still winter! I got two inches of snow on my lawn! I want whatever you're smoking.
Doc, can you scalp in between the PE treatments? Does Super Juice need to be applied soon after scalping? Dallas, Texas. Thanks!
Why does the dg preemergent package in this video look different from the one on Amazon? And if I use a little to much will this hurt my lawn
Hi Doc..quick question. I heard its ok to use Tenacity (.5 teaspoon/gallon) to spray lawn (primarily tall rescue) wrong the same time I'm doing spring seeding and a few major bare patched to repair. Getting close to 55 degree soil temps here in southern ohio. Need to make a decision sometime soon. Thx in advance. Stay healthy!
Doc, you're killin me with this beard trim LOL stop trimming it so high up your neck its like a mountain man's chin strap hahahah I still love your videos. Fellow Georgian here, so your advice has been especially helpful for me so thank you!!!
If you PE your flower beds and then later plant annuals...won't that break the barrier?
My humichar and super juice will be here Friday. Super excited to try them and start my diy lawn care journey!
How did you get humichar? It’s not available yet
Where did you find the Humichar!? I can’t find it on amazon.
@@chrisjoyner9833 you can click on the link in the description below and when you get the page scroll down to product links that will take you to Amazon. Or you can go to Amazon and search humichar biochar and in the results you will see "amazon choice" the seller being The Andersons
Hi Doc, a lot of your vids are focused on bermuda grass. How will this advice work on a tall fescue lawn in NC? I'm in the Piedmont region (Forsyth County) and a transition zone.
You are definitely one of the best. There are many good youtubers but I must say your products have yielded great results. Keep up the great work. I will get the humichar the minute it hits Amazon.
Is it wise to put pre-emergent in the month of January
I am in NC, where 99% of our lawn is stupid Sand. Will Pre-Emergent help with my no grass growing lawn?
PE will help prevent weeds. HUMICHAR will help make your soil great for grass.
I all ready got my pre-m down I know you said put down 10-10-10 if not doing a soil test but all I found was triple 15 would that work?
Yes...
Hey doc! I live In West Georgia .
Do i need to scalp, and aerate the Bermuda before I put the pre emergent and humichar down?
I appreciate it, thanks
As long as it has time to work in via water and rains it's fine.
Why do you put down granular pre-emergent prior to scalping the lawn wont the scalping disrupt the barrier that the pre-emergent makes?
We don't.... we put down the DG particles that expand within 30 min of being wet.
Have you used beneficial nematodes for grubs at all and what are your thoughts?
Can someone tell me how much Dimension 2EW you would use per gallon of water for a .5 acres or grass?
The question is how many ounces per 1000 sq feet. it's on the label. Then calculate how many sq ft your sprayer covers per gallon. I THINK it's .73 ounces per 1000 sq ft. have to look.
FYI Rule 1 starts about 5:20 minutes into the video.
Love your number 1 rule lol! I think I’ve used it too much is why my lawn looks like it does! Can’t wait to see the videos on the beach house! Congratulations to y’all!
in how many weeks the grass is big and green
Recommended sprayer to lay down the dimension pre emergent?
Doc, I recently purchased the agri-fab spreader you recommend and preparing to put out the barricade-dg. I recall a video where you mentioned how to determine the spreader settings by looking at the granual size. Do you (or anyone) know that video or what setting you recommend for the appropriate rate? I haven't used this spreader yet, so i don't have a "feel" for it. thank you!
Correct... I generally set that unit at just over 1/4" on the slot size. I found the numbers vary unit by unit.
Good video, i have to say your videos have helped me a great deal. Are you using a mavic pro?
Why don't you seed some annual rye to stay green during the winter
Advise on north eastern states for crabgrass
Hey Doc, is it best to scalp lawn first before applying the spring scalp or vice verse?
Doc: I’ve heard you talk about the inexpensive organic fertilizer, but have yet to see a link to it. Can you please post it? Thx
It's not a fertilizer... it's organic matter that we'll be using with the HUMICHAR. Video in about 2 weeks.
Hey Doc. Long time follower. I also live in Georgia. I have a really bad Nostoc problem in a bare area of my back lawn. Any ideas on treatments for this?
www.canr.msu.edu/news/nostoc_a_green_jelly_like_substance_growing_in_lawns
Why do we have to hear the hum of your propellers?
Doc, I need some advice. First off, I'm in North Alabama, so I get all the weather you get a day or so early...
Now I haven't put out my preemergent yet (I know I know) and even though it could be too late I still want to put some out and hope for the best. It's been damp a few days and a random rain came in late yesterday evening. My yard isn't soaked, but it's still damp and muddy... I'm scalping my yard right now, and I plan to put out pre emergent right after, in hopes that the short grass will help the preemergent work to the soil quicker....
There's rain coming in tonight, and I don't see any rain free days through the 21st on my weather app... it feels like it is do or die today... should I still put out preemergent?
Never too late for it really... just get it down and then in 3 weeks hit it with some liquid.
@@HowTowithDoc will do Doc!! Thanks for the response, I feel alot better now. Can't wait for your fertilizer videos I know you're planning to make in a couple of weeks!!
With a yard with a ton of weal spots should I still use preemergent? I had a bit of a "world's worst Bermuda lawn" scenario and I want it to fill in.
Yes, video coming.
@@HowTowithDoc awesome thanks! Been looking everywhere for that answer!
How do you select turf seeds and where do you buy them? I need narrow blades
Love the gettie up Doc!!!!!!!!
What’s the organic matter??
A He hasn’t said yet. I think he said he is waiting for it to be available to us before he tells us what it is. But it’s coming very soon.
Mine is new sod and was planning on doing a pre emergent application this weekend. But glad I saw this video. The bag of pre emergent I bought will have to wait till next year then 🙂
Good catch..........
Hi Doc...congrats on the channel growth. Quick question. I have some major spots on my lawn that were taken over by crab grass and one other invasive grass (don't recall the name) of which I will need to reseed this season. I'm challenged each spring because I always seem to have these small and large patches to fix, yet I know putting pre emergent down will inhibit germination of the grass seed. Any suggestions as to how I can do both..or at least apply pre emergent and be able to successfully seed sometime in the next month or two? How that makes sense. Thx!
Early and HEAVY treatment of PE at the right time first.... then wait 3-4 months. Kill any existing that made it through the PE. Then wait 2 -3 weeks and make sure it has rained. By that time the PE and GRASS KILLER should be gone, re-seed.
Still waiting to do anything with my lawn as it rained again on me when it wasn't supposed to. Weather man is always wrong.
