When should pre-emergent go down in San Diego?
Two windows. Winter weeds (poa annua, chickweed, henbit), apply mid-October. Summer weeds (crabgrass, spurge, goosegrass), apply mid-February. Missing the window by 3-4 weeks loses most of the benefit. We schedule these by calendar, not by sight.
Do you use organic-only options?
Yes, on request. Corn gluten meal pre-emergent, acetic-acid (horticultural vinegar) post-emergent, and flame weeding on hardscape. Organic works but costs more and requires more frequent visits, typically 8-10/year vs. 6 for synthetic.
