2022 Weed Forecast for Marietta, GA – Lawn Services


2022 weed forcast MARIETTA GAHomeowners in Marietta, Georgia, are going to see a rise in weeds germinating earlier this year compared to average years.


We suggest an immediate start to your lawn service weed control and fertilization.

The 2022 long-range weather forecast for Marietta, Georgia, indicated that the winter would be rainier and warmer than typical, along with below-average snowfall. The coldest month is likely going to be February, as well as the most likely time to see snow. As spring approaches, April and May will be warmer than normal, and we should see average rainfall.

With this, homeowners are going to see a rise in weed development and activity with weeds germinating earlier in 2022 compared to previous years in Marietta, Georgia.

Crabgrass germination occurs later in winter, usually between March and February. But it can vary year to year depending on location, temperature, and rain accumulation. Germination for Crabgrass usually starts once the soil temperature is around 55°F at a depth of two inches for greater than three days. The soil has continued to be above 55°F for many weeks. So expect to see Crabgrass formation at any time. Please don’t panic; remember that Crabgrass can’t survive frigid temperatures, therefore in case we get freezing/frosting conditions, it can kill off the early Crabgrass germination.

Other assortments of weeds, like Dallisgrass, will get a jump start on Spring as a result of the warmer temperatures and wetter conditions in Marietta.

So what can homeowners in Marietta, Georgia, do today to avoid this dilemma and prevent weed infestations in their lawns? The solution is to activate an extensive action plan with regular applications of a combination of pre and post-emergent herbicides (lawn services weed control).

The most powerful way to control weeds such as Crabgrass is a pre-emergence herbicide. Marietta lawns with a history of weed-related problems, this is what we highly recommend. Post-emergent herbicides aid in the elimination of countless types of broadleaf weeds that happen to be germinated and growing.

Often it’s less of a challenge to manage unwanted winter weeds versus summer weeds. Nevertheless, if you ignore them, winter weeds can be a notable burden, diverting you from critical seasonal maintenance.

Start your lawn service’s weed control treatments today, and save more time and money for the Spring.

It is always easier to manage a weed-free lawn than to defeat heavy weeds. A proactive weed control service will continue to pay for itself in the long run.
