Live in southeast Michigan. This is popping up in my lawn again. I thought it was nutsedge. I used sedgehammer, per instructions, about a week ago, and it didn't seem to affect it. Any ideas?

Hi, I live in South East Michigan and the lawn is starting to turn green. I have this popping up intermittently. Can someone help identify it? Is it nutsedge?

Title says it all - I live in the pine barrens in south NJ and the soil in my yard is very very sandy. When I first moved in to my house about 5 years I never had an actual lawn but the weeds were thick enough that when I cut the grass it looked nice, at least it was green. Over the past few...

Hi, living in Southeast Michigan. I have this growing in bunches throughout the lawn. Lawn Care company sprayed pre-emergent a while ago, just as the Forsythias were getting yellow. Any idea what it is? Is this a grass, or crabgrass. If it isn't grass, can I treat it with something to get rid...

My back yard, approx 4800 sq ft in San Diego, gets completely over run with 3+ foot tall weeds of all variety. I hauled approx 1800lbs of weeds out last year. It all starts after the first rains which we should start getting in the next 30ish days. I want to get in front of it and prevent all...

A lot of my 8 acres has bracken fern, it's that fern that starts as a fiddlehead and then grows into a 5 foot monster within weeks. It's a major problem in the UK where it has taken over miles of heath area. Hikers are warned to wear masks as the spores are linked to leukemia and it even...

Hi guys, So I made the biggest mistake ever this spring. I basically killed my entire yard. Went to Tractor Supply and asked the worker what the best product was for weed control. She obviously had no idea, but pointed to me what all the "farmers" were using. Without thinking twice, I grabbed...

Hi everyone, We are a couple of former city apartment dwellers who just bought a house and are in way over our head with this whole yard thing. We are still in the city so it's a small yard, but we would like to make a lawn out of it. Attached are some photos of things currently growing in our...

Can anyone identify this grass from the seed heads? They have been popping up all over the edges of my lawn for the past couple of weeks and I'm thinking it's immature grass stickers, but want to make sure. Thanks! Location: West Texas

Hi Everyone, This post is the main reason I joined DIY chatroom but I'm sure I'll be pretty active after it considering the responses. My lawn at the beginning of the season and into late july was looking great! (Green, healthy, water regularly and extensively on hot days) All of a sudden...

I live at the Jersey shore by the ocean, and I have these burrs on my lawn. They start green, then dry out and become brown and hard with spikes. I have tried a lot of lawn sprays, but they never die! Does anyone know the name of these weeds and how to get rid of them? Thanks!!

Hey I was wondering what type of weed this is if its a weed at all and if I need to get rid of it. Now it won't let me upload my pictures so I will provide a description. It has a bushy bottom about 12'' in all directions long skinny asparagus like protrusions withe leaves between the joints...

We just purchased a foreclosure here in Birmingham, AL that has a decent sized backyard...unfortunately it's almost completely covered in weeds or just has huge spots with no growth (just dirt). So, I'm trying to figure out the best way to get rid of the weeds and grow a healthy lawn in its...

I have a block-paved patio out back which is overrun with weeds coming up in between the bricks. I've tried weedkiller, but they just grow back. I've tried uprooting them all by hand, but that seems to make the cracks bigger and therefore the weeds worse. I guess I need to seal it, but as a...
