In today's video, I'll walk you through a simple two-step process to eliminate weeds, prevent weeds, and fertilize your lawn all at the same time.
We'll be using Ortho Weed B Gon Herbicide Weed Killer to effectively tackle existing broadleaf weeds and crabgrass in your lawn.

I love that you use the box stores not specialty items you have to spend a fortune for.
Check your local feed store, quite of few at mine, are cheaper and better then the big box crap
i think specialty items are generally cheaper though. initial price may seems high for some chemicals but once you dilute it, it so much more than the consumer standard package sizes. it is an illusion
I have never subscribed to anyone before. You got me on the first video I saw. God bless you and America!!!!
thanks so much for the sub Paul! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Who knew you could make a lawn care video this entertaining. Amazing job!
lol thanks
Didn’t know it was entertaining 😂
huh your right I'm binge watching a lawn care channel where did I end up in my life oh well, I got one great lawn, so it has all worked out in the end!
George! so glad to see some new content, my northeast lawn is dying for some TLC. I've dethatched, aerated, and spread pre-emergent so far. Im rewatching all your videos to get back on track for a solid lawn this year.
good to see you too tanner! sounds like you on the right track! good luck with your lawn this season!
i like your other videos where you have us using aluminum sulfate with Tenacity or Weed B Gon to increase the potency of the herbicides. I also found out if i apply aluminum sulfate to my lawn on a regular basis even though I have to mow more frequently my lawn greens up and seems to be a bit stronger I'm going to keep this going for a while and in the fall overseed and do some other things i've seen you and a few others do to have a better looking and more resistant weed free lawn thanks for the advice about the aluminum sulfate it def is good for the grass and as an addition to herbicides to make them more potent !
You are by far the best lawn care TH-camr and I've watched them all. For someone who is just getting into the vast world of lawn maintenance your videos are a Godsend. All videos are super knowledgeable and straight to the point. Keep it up, loving your content!
thanks a lot bud! you the man!
Great video. Thank you for sharing!
George! Thank you again for the great video. Thank you for keeping it budget friendly and big box store friendly as well 👌
No problem chris! appreciate ya stoppin by!
I love that you are in the Chicago Suburbs, I also live in the Chicago Suburbs so I love following your guide the most, since it will be exact same temps and soil type
thats great to hear neighbor! shout out Chi town!
I always just thought he just sounded like someone from the Raq 😂
Thanks George. I plan to overseed soon. Temps continue to sway especially over night. I’ll take the tenacity route then overseed. I can for sure use this information going forward ✍🏾
smart move using the tenacity, good luck with your seeding project!
Good to see you making videos again!
thanks! good to see ya too!
Thanks, great guide, no b,s, the basics for the beginner.👍
Always informative love this channel
appreciate that Robert!
Great info George! Lawn season is finally here! 🙌
Thanks dude! Feels get to get back in the lawn 😂
Great explanation. Didn’t talk too fast. Easy to follow 😊
thanks!
Hey George you had me at Bob Segar! I actually live within 20 minutes from him in Michigan. Long live Silver Bullet Band!
haha thats pretty cool Keith!
Michigander here, actually met Bob Seger as well.
Excellent info my friend! Cheers to another lawn season.
Thanks dude! hows thing over by the lake??
@@PrincessCutLawnCare never better! Got a truck load of sand/soil coming Saturday. Can't wait! I hope all is well with you and the family.
I'm pretty sure my whole lawn is weeds
we know how that feels, dont feel bad because its fixable get some halts down asap and spray the existing weeds with the ortho i used in this video
@PrincessCutLawnCare ya I'm not to worry about it green is green to me

Why
@@james10739 property value in the dumps then huh
Great info as usual george!🤙🏽battling up and down temps in colorado but finally getting going. Have actually gotten a couple mows in already🤙🏽🤙🏽
thanks Rosendo! your lucky, we only mowed once so far haha
Great stuff George , i really like that you cover both the professional products and methods and the big box / more budget friendly options as well. I have transitioned to mainly professional products because with effectiveness and how long / far those products typically go its usually an overall financial savings despite more up front costs. But for those who just want to go to the big box store route there are some effective products and methods that you continually highlight. Even myself if i am in a time crunch / need a product right then and there i still once in a while grab something from a big box store.
Thanks Andrew!
@@PrincessCutLawnCare George , also meant to ask doesn't another Scotts Turf Builder product have mesotrione as the pre-emergent ingredient ? Thats an option for a shorter lasting pre-emergent that still allows for seeding if you need to seed now or later in the season. I was curious does Scotts still make that product ?
@@Andrew77MUFC yeah they still make it and it works amazing, they recently changed the name of it to “built for seeding” you can get it here: amzn.to/3W3t5yk
@@PrincessCutLawnCare thank you for the info and link. I will probably use your link and buy it this time. One of those instances the end of last season and early this season i've ran out of a lot of products. End of last season finished up my Tenacity and just finished my last bags of professional fertilizer a couple weeks ago. So probably give it a go with this product this time and use it for next fertilizer application until i replenish the professional products. Especially as i do have to seed some areas so rather go with that mesotrione option this time.
Thank you for sharing.
no problem!
Just found your channel love the edits you do with the music 😂
Thanks Jose! nice you could join us!
Lawns looking good George!
Thanks buster! It’s finally starting to wake up this season 😊
Good job George 👍
Hey Terry! Good to see you back this season!
I just saw your weed killer video and just want to know if after you applied the herbicide, how long do you wait to water the product down? And how many days do you wait for your next mow?.
Keep up the good content!!!
Thanks again brother
no problem Allen!
Great overview video for new lawn enthusiasts!
For the pre-emergent, is it typical for weeds to still emerge, and then become injured and then stunted from growth- I have some that emerged, but are yellowish at the bottom- and then when I pull them they have like no real roots.
Hey Matt! Funny you mentioned that, we have a bunch of dandilions popping up after our application, in that case I just take the ortho and hit them real quick.
Great video, George
Glad ur hitting the Big Box stores
I’m sick of hearing about Anderson 😡
Thanks Dave! seems everytime i open instagram i see andersons 😂
your videos are a great wealth of knowledge. I live in northern ct and have a large amount of hairy bittercress in my lawn any idea's on kill and controlling it. Any help would be great. I would love a lawn like yours. Thanks Don
thanks so much! this will knock it out: amzn.to/3JuOj0l
Good morning SIR, I love your videos and have learned quite a bit!
I have a question per the Scott’s seed & Fertilizer mini spreader. I have checked on both Home Depot and Lowe’s customer reviews and most are very negative towards the product.
Most talk about the lower spreader mechanism falling apart and the axle is plastic and when the hopper is filled causing the axe to bow?
I have an older Scott’s drop feeder but it does not seem to dispense larger size fertilizer, so this is reason I was looking at the midsize feeder.
Have you had any issues with your feeder?
Great videos my friend!
Thanks for the measure my lawn website.
No problem scott! Good luck with your lawn this season
4:06 that scale looks happy
Damn, i just bought a big bad of Scotts weed and feed. I enjoy your videos and subscribed
i would advice to return the weed n feed and use this method, it will work much better
and thanks for the sub! you the man!
Thanks for the video. Very helpful. My only question is: you seem to water after applying the Scott halt and fertilizer, while the instructions on the back says apply when dry. Which way is better? I know it should be applied when heavy rain is expected
Hi George....Love your videos. Question: Can I cover a large bare spot in my lawn with plastic and then spread pre emergent over the rest of the lawn so I can reseed bare spot after??
Good to see you back making videos
thanks Chris, good to see you too brotha
genuinely curious why your so dedicated to your lawn, do you do this for a living?
it seems like a college level investment
would love to see a video about what motivated you and why you love it
ps your really awesome
good job 👏🏽
Thanks boss!
Woohoo here for the new video!
haha whats up dude! good to see ya back! hows the channel goin??
@@PrincessCutLawnCare going good bro. Glad to see some new vids! Soaking up all this info. This is the year to get the lawn going finally. You have any success with planting in the spring or should I wait until the fall. Northeast here
Love your videos! Can you do one on moss control?
Thanks Matt! We are jotting that down in our idea notebook right now thanks for the suggestion
@@PrincessCutLawnCare you are awesome! Such a quick response.
Thanks for sharing! Does dethatch need to be done prior to all these?
I like the cut of your jib!
Thanks!
If you are at a place like Lowes or HD, make sure you look to see it is made for your grass. My local Lowe's has stuff for Northern lawns and not St Augustine grass. I am in Texas- most ALL of our grass is St Augustine
I believe that is purely marketing. Scotts Northern Turf Builder is marked safe for all grass types. I can't find any difference between "Northern" and "Southern" Turf Builder other than the amount of K, which Southern appears to have 6% more. If they're the same price I'd say buy the southern because it has more nutrient, but not because it "isn't made for your grass type".
Scott has a fertilizer especially for southern lawns. They sell it in home depot and walmart. I haven't checked at my lowes
@@ImStuckInStockton NOT SO. If you have centipede, you better use the Southern. Always consider YOUR grass type, where ever you live.
@@thangknowa3288 What component is in the southern fertilizer that makes it better for centipede grass?
Hi i stay in Michigan watching a previous video you said not to use the halts during the spring, correct? I could be wrong, but I want to be correct I'm new to this and want to get started next week! By the way I love your videos and how your very transparent and shows us different ways to get a way nicer looking lawn quick. Should I use this method ?
Hi! Thanks so much!
This program is perfect for you and your location during this time 👍
Hi George, I am trying to revive a section of m lawn. I used my electric detgatcher two weeks ago and applied the StaGreen fert with humic and sea kelp u recommended 10 days ago.. I want to spray in liquid humic acid and sea kelp next. How long after applying this mix before I can cut the lawn? Thanks
I'm going to just combine the watering in process with the post emergent killer by using a hose end sprayer version
that works too!
Thanks. Great content. Can you do a video for those of us in Canada where the crabgrass/etc herbicides are not legal? What other options are there that will give us a beautiful lawn?
No problem! And jotting that down in my notebook right now, thanks for the suggestion
In your opinion what the best way to help my grass.
where we took down a maple tree had the stump ground down.
new top soil laid and seeded.
Now we have a huge brown spot
Seems like decaying roots are burning the grass
Thanks.
No problem! Thanks for watching
i can’t believe you fooled me with the discord notification sound 🤣
😂
Nicely done.
What is the timeline between putting down the Turff Builder and being able to lay seed for over seeding?
thanks! you will not want to lay seed within 4 months of applying scotts halts (same rules apply for all preemergents except tenacity)
I used spectracide spray and the seeds for my lawn it’s full of weeds on Monday. I don’t see any changes. Should I do what you did in this video ?
Hi. I do similar steps. But every year I’m getting more and more of the wild onions. The bulbs are Soo deep when I try to dip them out. Do you have any suggestions?
I have question? Does this Scotts Turf Builder product works on other weeds too? Our lawn got all other weeds too. I am not sure what to prevent it from getting new weed.
Can I use Scotts turf builder triple Action?
Please guide me.
My fert always gets stuck in the Edgeguard Mini’s wheels since they are open on the insider. This leads to lines in my lawn where the fert is very concentrated. I suggest people with hilly lawns don’t is the edge guard mini.
How old is your spreader? They changed the design 2 years ago
@@PrincessCutLawnCare oh really! It’s over 2 years old so maybe I’ll need to check out the new design
Verygood thak you hello.
No problem!
Great video would you know what I can use to prevent grubs in my lawn
thanks! do you currently have grubs invading? or are you looking to prevent them?
@@PrincessCutLawnCare I currently have some in my front lawn
This is great for northern lawns/grass, unfortunately nothing works for St Augustine grass in the south. You just have to re-sod every 4-6 years.
Thank you for the information! Once I do this process, can I overseed immediately or do I have to wait a few days?
If you plan on seeding do not use either one of these products.
Halts has a 3 month seeding window and weed be gone has a 2 week seeding window
@@PrincessCutLawnCare Thank you!
@@PrincessCutLawnCare another question - if I put the weed killer, how long do I have to wait before I can level my lawn?
Hello, nice video,,, It would be possible to apply fertilizer and seed to it with the spreader to restore the lawn which has weeds and several dry areas with very little volume of grass. I have never worked with grasses and I don't know if after putting seed to make the grass grow if I can also put fertilizer to prevent weed. The grass type is Fecue and the date is 4/22/24.
Thank you👍
hi! if you plan on seeding do not use the products in this video
Dad Rock has completely taken over Home Depot’s play list.
😂💯
One thing not mentioned is what the weed preventer also prevents: it prevents good grass seed from sprouting. So that product should be avoided if the plan includes seeding shortly after planned application of the weed preventer.
I don’t use that product, but I believe the label says to not bother seeding until several months after application of that product.
Yes, do not seed when using
For anyone in the south, make sure the post-emergent weed killer you use is safe on your grass. The tips in this video are good, but Weed B-gon *should not used on St. Augustine* as well as some other turfs
Not true I got Saint Augustine grass and when you go to Home Depot or Lowe’s, they have the versions that are made for your grass. It will specifically say kills the weeds, not the grass and then it will specifically say what grass types it safe on and they would sell it in your local Home Depot made for your grass.
@@artieartya It's true that they do try to cater the products in local stores for the types of lawns in the area, but there are still products that can be harmful, especially to St. Augustine. I was just saying it's best practice to check what grasses any product you purchase is made for-especially if you're purchasing online.
It's also best to check specifically the label or the manufacturer's website because a lot of big box stores aren't careful about their listings. My Home Depot listing for generic Weed B-Gon that is available in store that says it's "all purpose" for different types of lawns but, checking the label and Ortho's website, it expressly says "do not use on St. Augustine"
Edit: Just checked Lowe's and they *do* have a version that is specifically for St. Augustine turfs-just goes to show that you have to be careful and make sure the products are made for your lawn
@@cadetindell5365 just read the labels. I’ve used these products a lot year-round year in and year out for my Saint Augustine grass and I’ve never had issue. Just read the label properly. Follow directions and you’ll be fine. Basic requirements don’t do it when it’s 85° and up and it’s literally just one spray on the weed don’t overspray you’ll be fine.
Spectracide Weed Stop also contains Sulfentrazone which Wedd b Gone does not. Spectricide is overall a better product than Weed b Gone regardless of the .06% of additional 2,4D. Spectracide would be pretty close to a perfect product if they would replace the 2,4D with Triclopyr.
Again, are there ANY Of the things in this video that can be done in the middle of summer in cool climate grass?
How would you do that if you plan to overseed grass as well? Should you start with herbicides or overseeding?
do not use the scotts halts if you plan on overseeding, the ortho weed be gone can be used after you mow your new baby grass at least 2 times
Will the stuff you mentioned a rid of blue grass (poa) because that’s what I am battling with. Thank you.
no sorry, poa is VERY hard to control, almost nothing will get rid of it, my best recomendation is to get a weed pulling tool and manual pull as much of it out as you can, also be sure to always bag your clippings especially when it starts to seed
Great content. quick question. if i'm pre-germinating my grass seed, how long after i put the seed on the ground that i should use the pre-emergent and weed killer? im seeding bald patches and overseeding the rest of the lawn.
Id get a seed safe pre emergent and get it down now with your seeds. Dont get a weed/feed because it cant tell the difference from new seed/weeds.
Can’t use pre-em & seed at the same time.
Think about it!
@@davehaggerty3405 uhhh yea you can. Look up tenacity.
Do you recommend weed ortho for weeds coming through patio? My patio has landscaping rocks with blocks spread out in them. I just purchased my house and just looking to get them under control
i would use round up for that specific purpose, just be sure not to get it on any desirable grass or vegitation
Hey George, great video as usual. Would I need to forgo this fertilizer crabgrass treatment if I’m reseeding to avoid it from preventing the new grass seed from germinating?
Thanks Josh! Yes do not use any of these products if you plan on seeding
Just grab a seed safe pre emergent and you'll be good.
@@mikes2687 do you recommend anything specific?
@@PrincessCutLawnCare can you recommend a seed safe pre-emergent?
@@joshb-8810 yes, this: amzn.to/3xT7nD9
works amazing
Do you recommend doing this over tenacity/speedzone?
Depends how bad your weeds are. I tend to use speedzone and tenacity for salvage situations where there is more weeds than grass
When should we cut the grass? Before doing all this? Or after day four?
Good morning, do not cut 2 days before or 2 days after
is it ok to put down tenacity with surfactant with a liquid sprayer directly before/after overseeding? which order is preferred and how long in between for this time of year? May/June
Yes you can apply tenacity any time before, during or directly after overseeding 👍
George, I’ve noticed something from your past videos that I don’t think has a lot of info out there. How do you do conversions for turning your granular fertilizers into liquids? I see that you mix them with your drill but is the conversion the same per 1000 sq ft?
hi trevor, great question, the measurements are much different as you dont want to apply more than .15 lbs of Nitrogen per 1k sqft when spraying VS when you apply granular you can apply up tp 1 pound of N per 1k no problem as it breaks down slowly
Thank you so much. This makes a lot of sense. Applying .15 lbs of N through spoon feeding helps to reach that 4 lbs mark over the course of the season. I think I’ve got the math down for my ammonium sulfate at 20-0-0 which will require me to dissolve 12 ounces of granular fertilizer for every gallon of water per 1000 sq ft through my sprayer.
Need help. I am not able get any of the good professional herbicides like Pylex, 3-way Max, Select Source Triad, Speed Zone, Celsius, etc since I live in California. I have Tall Fescue lawn and all the rest of weeds you can name. What to do?
Hey George, I picked up that XCR8 like you said and I was wondering what’s the cut off on applying it? Is it too warm where we live now or should I wait until the fall your friend from Palos, Park😊
hi cream! actually id say its too cold right now and id wait about 2 more weeks to apply it, remember weeds are controled best when they are activly growing, at the moment things are growing slow due to the cold temp
@@PrincessCutLawnCare thank you George. See you in the yard lol
Hey George, I was wondering how often you can use XLR-8, I used it three weeks ago and I was thinking about doing it again thanks for all your help
do you think i can over seed in a couple weeks after laying down the pre emergent?
Do not apply preemmergent if your planning on seeding as there is a 3-4 month seeding window
So Ortho weed be gone. I got the concentrate like you showed in a different video and 2 gal sprayer. Mixed per instructions. I had the sprayer on a middle most/spray. I sprayed each weed a second or so. A week later the yard is starting to look yellow with the dandelions popping. Did I wait too long? Nothing looks to be dying.
Give it another week or 2, if you don’t see them getting damaged, hit them again. The weather has been pretty cool lately and ortho works best when the temps are in the 60-80 degree range
Hey George are you still using the Blue Def? I was thinking about trying it.
Hey! and yessir use it all the time, its great
@@PrincessCutLawnCare ok cool. I saw it was only $15 at Costco the other day. Going to pick some up. Thanks
Hello ,
Today I dug up our weed garden (previously scarified several times and removed all the weeds as best as possible).
The pH is 7, possibly higher. Color from the test was slightly darker than the template.
I want to mix in sand because the soil is quite “heavy”.
Should I treat the soil now to bring the pH down? or how do I proceed now?
you can treat it any time before or after
@@PrincessCutLawnCare thanx
Are the 2 bags of Scott's different?
they both contain the weed preventer, the only diference is one contains fertilizer and the other doesnt, sorry i should have been more clear
Hi George. How many times per month can I hit the weeds with that herbicide?
hi! you shouldnt have to do it more than twice, be sure to space out the apps 30 days apart
I have a lot of Dandilion and some Crabgrass but I live in Ontario Canada anyidea which one I should use thx.
Both 👍
Need more cowbell. Anyone else catch that ?
haha your the first person out of 67k ppl to mention it 😂
Did the discontinue Sta Green natural fertilizer. Out of stock forever from all of my local Lowes
really? not that im aware of, will have to check next time were there
Does the Scotts Halt kill new seed/new grass?
It will prevent new grass from sprouting
I just bought a new construction house and the sod they laid is terrible. It's got brown patches everywhere and has tons of crabgrass. It's Bermuda grass and I'm in North Texas. What would you recommend? I'm not sure what you can do to new sod :/
i recommend watering it deep twice a week (most important thing you can do) and use a general purpose fertilizer like this: amzn.to/3UlKAZe
as for the crabgrass you can use the ortho pruct we used in this video to spot treat it.
but as a warning do not use the blue bag of scotts halts we used in this video on new sod as it can cause root pruning to the new grass
@@PrincessCutLawnCare I've done some digging and I actually landed on Tenacity as a weed killer. I know 2-D would've worked better for crabgrass but I liked the pre-emergent of the Tenancy. I have the sprinklers going 2 timers per day, every other day for about 5 mins per zone. I actually just bought an Atlas lawnmower, string trimmer, and leaf blower from your Harbor Freight $600 video haha. You've earned my sub for replying, I appreciate it!
Hello, you never mentioned where you got that Scott’s Pre-emergent from.
The bag in Home Depot is the same except it contains fertilizer, get that one instead
George, I truly don't understand the logic behind "if you walk too slow, you're going to empty out your hopper." I could see that happening if there was a motor on your spreader that was constantly tossing out the granules at a steady rate regardless of your walking speed, but there's not. Instead, the wheels on the spreader and the dispensing mechanism are directly connected. If you stop walking, even if you keep the trigger handle depressed to keep the trap door open, the product stops coming out. Please explain. Honest question here.
Hi Anthony, your right the propeller is directly aligned with how fast you walk but that does not change the amount of product being broadcasted. The product free falls out of the hopper at the same rate whether you are in motion or not so if you walk to slow the free falling product will come out early
How long after applying DEF to my lawn can I add Turf Builder?
How much def did you apply?
What time of the year should I use halts
Right now 👍
How often do I do this routine?
Scott’s halts once in early spring
And weed be gone once in spring, once in fall
Setting number 2 on the hand spreader as well?
on the hand spreader i would use setting 1
@@PrincessCutLawnCare thank you sir!!
Ps I will never forget the beautiful Dark green lawns of Chicago around this time. I went last yr around this time for a Dodger game and I was just blown away at the deep green lawns in most neighborhoods. Just amazing 😮💨
George, does the weed be gone also kill clover?
yes but this version will work even better: amzn.to/49H6JG1

please help me out, looking to do some overseeding mid/late May early June and I want to spread out peat moss. I also plan to hit the weeds with the pre and post products. I have .5 acres to do and the bags say 4.4 cubic feet when expanded. for the life of me I can figure out about how many bags I will need.... any good way of figuring this out? I just want to top dress enough to help the overseed germinate so it takes hold and I plan to use a peat moss spreader roll drum. any help would be much appreciated!
What type of grass do you plan on overseeding?
@@PrincessCutLawnCare im in lower michigan, so was planning on doing perenial rye and or tall fescue as I understand that is probably better to get established in early spring when the ground is still fairly cool currently, most of what is there right now is weeds with very little grass and patchy spots
@@derekdrozdzak seeding in summer is pretty much a lost cause, the summer heat will fry your new baby grass within days. You better off to seed in the late summer around sept 1st for lower mi. In the meantime, start controlling your weeds and fertilizing regularly
@@PrincessCutLawnCare correct. I was hoping to get in an overseed like.. now, still in May preferrably. It has barely even hit 70s here but the nights are staying in the 50s. I was also planning for overseeding in September very lightly as well.
I’m confused. Should I use Halts Crabgrass & Grassy Weed Preventer AND Scott’s Turf Builder Halts crabgrass preventer with lawn food at the SAME TIME?? I just picked up Scott’s Turf Builder with lawn food ONLY because I watched another video you posted. PLEASE HELP🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Hi Gwen! Only use the crabgrass preventer with lawn food. I just so happened to have both of those bags in this video, sorry I should have been more clear
I also bought a bag of Ammonium Sulfate and a bottle of Tenacity
@@PrincessCutLawnCareThanks!!
@@gwen1060 Use the tenacity when seeding only, or to eradicate bent grass. Use the sulfate as an adjuvant to weed killer or as fertilizer.
@@Shaner014 Thanks So Much!!
Is this safe to use on a sod lawn less than 6 weeks old ?
Yes, most important thing for new sod is to make sure you are watering deep consistently
A lot of reviews about the Scott's Halt was moist and unable to spead it using the spreader. Anyone else had similar issues?
never had that issue but i would def recommend to make sure the bag was stored indoors, dont buy any that are stored outside in garden centers
When do u water after first application?
right away
Also how many days it will take usually to see the results? I used the turf builder triple action recently but didn't see any results, after that I saw this video and I'm planning to do like you said
