If you want to ensure the lawn care routine you have adapted for your lawn in New Mexico or Texas will boost its health, it should include both lawn fertilization and weed control. When you fertilize your lawn without weed control, the weeds are also getting the nutrients from the treatment and will get stronger. If you apply weed control without fertilizer, your lawn will be free of weeds but it could get weak and turn brown because it is not receiving the nutrients it needs to stay healthy. For the best results, use both treatments so your grass will be healthy, nourished, and free of invasive, nutrient-stealing weeds!

Fertilizing your lawn without weed control means providing nutrients to the weeds too.

Fertilizers provide the nutrients that promote stronger growth, greener grass blades, and deeper roots. They should be applied regularly during the growing season to support the health and vigor of your lawn. While this treatment will do wonders to keep your grass in its best shape, it won't stop weeds from invading your turf. Fertilizing your lawn without weed control means you're not only feeding your grass with vital nutrients but pesky weeds as well! Before long, weeds will have taken over your lawn because they have received the nutrients they need to grow and spread through fertilizer treatments.

Weed Control Without Fertilization Won't Supply Your Lawn With Essential Nutrients

Applying weed control on your lawn is an effective way to ensure it stays free of pesky and invasive weeds that can steal nutrients from your grass. Pre- and post-emergent weed control treatments are the two types of weed control that will allow you to achieve a weed-free lawn. However, your lawn will lack the essential nutrients that it needs to flourish if you don't also apply fertilizer treatments to it. With weed control alone, you'll have a weed-free lawn but one that might also be weak, brown, and vulnerable to stressors. That's because weed control does not deliver vital nutrients that encourage healthy growth—that's what fertilizer treatments are for.

Use both lawn fertilization and weed control for a healthy and weed-free lawn.

If you want to achieve a healthy and weed-free lawn, incorporate lawn fertilization and weed control treatments into your lawn care routine. Both of these treatments should be administered regularly to your lawn throughout the year to yield the best results. When paired together, your grass will have a consistent supply of nutrients during the growing season to maintain its health and build up its resistance against stressors without having to compete with weeds for those nutrients.

Ideally, you want your lawn to receive fertilizer and weed control treatments through different seasons during the year. Applying these treatments in the spring, summer, and fall ensures consistent nourishment and protection for your lawn as weather conditions change.
