I love this time of year! I'm usually the envy of my neighbors so I take this shite seriously. Time to weed n feed the yard, spot-spray weeds, then spread greenmax all over the place. Gonna do my annual re-mulching also. A month from now my yard is going to yet again be the greenest, most weed-free yard in the subdivision.

Yea, I'm excited about this and no, IDGAF what you think. Who else is going to start on their yard soon?

I'd like to be right there with you. Dumb it down for me. What do I need to get?

Right now my backyard is infested with clover and I hate it.

If you want to plant some fruit trees, now is time.

As far as your yard goes night want to wait till it quits raining.

You are doing it wrong unless the rules of nature are different in your neck of the woods.

The best thing I've used on clover is Weed B Gone. I had a huge patch of clover in my back yard and I bought a large thing of Weed B Gone then sprayed it all over the clover while the wind wasn't blowing. It takes time, but it works like a charm. After you spray them, go back a few hours later and spread Scotts Weed 'N Feed over the whole yard. Within a few weeks you will see a drastic change for the better.

It's always a good idea to spread Weed N Feed, wait about a week after watering it real well, then spread Scotts Greenmax over your whole yard. Not only is your yard weed free then, but it's very, very green.
