I normally cut on the highest setting because I like it full and thick (lawn I mean). I bag when the leaves fall and/or if I miss a week during the summer just to keep the thick clippings from suffocating the grass.

Pre-emergents are you friend. You basically treat the weeds before they take root. One application in the fall and another in the spring.


What chemicals specifically so I can research?

If you have grassy weeds, i.e. Crabgrass then a product with "dimension" is what you need. You should apply it when your soil reaches a certain temp in the spring. In the dallas tx area it would be around April 1.

For dandelion and clover you should use something with "gallery". For our area it is recommended around September 1, although I just put it down this weekend.
