Carland Landscaping | Expert Landscaping in Sioux Falls, SD

The key is a combination of proper mulch depth and a pre-emergent treatment. We apply a quality, coarse mulch at the correct depth to block sunlight and use targeted, professional-grade pre-emergent herbicides in early spring to stop weeds before they start. This two-step approach is crucial for our local soil types.

We focus on building a resilient root system through deep, infrequent watering and proper aeration. Using drought-tolerant grass blends suited for our region and adjusting mowing heights to promote deeper roots are essential steps. Our seasonal programs are designed to strengthen your lawn against Sioux Falls' hot, dry spells.

Timing is critical here. We typically begin core aeration and pre-emergent weed control in early to mid-April, once the ground has thawed but before weed seeds germinate. Starting at the right time sets your property up for success, preventing issues before the growing season is in full swing.
