HOWELL, Mich. - Michimich -- Do you know how to recognize crabgrass?

Did you know that crabgrass can cause major damage to your lawn?

Crabgrass, scientifically known as Digitaria, is an invasive weed that can wreak havoc on your lawn if left unchecked. Here is a quick guide to recognizing crabgrass, and why it's important to take care of ASAP.

Identifying Crabgrass

Crabgrass is an annual grass weed that thrives in the spring and summer. You can recognize it by its low-growing, spreading nature and crab-like appearance, with stems radiating out from the center. The leaves are wide and coarse, and the grass produces seed heads that can quickly take over a once-pristine lawn.

Damage to Your Lawn

One of the main ways crabgrass can ruin your lawn is by competing for essential resources, such as sunlight, water, and nutrients. As an aggressive and fast-growing weed, crabgrass can quickly outpace the desired grass on your lawn, creating dense patches that hinder the growth of healthy grass. This competition can lead to weak, thinning turf that is more susceptible to diseases, pests, and stress from the environment.

A Returning Menace

Crabgrass germinates in the spring, taking advantage of warmer temperatures and longer days. Its rapid growth during this season allows it to get a foothold in your lawn before other grasses have a chance to fully develop. Once crabgrass gains a foothold, it continues to thrive throughout the summer, producing seeds that can result in even more infestations, which can even carry over to the next year.

Crabgrass is notoriously resilient and can be challenging to eliminate. Its high seed production ensures that new plants will emerge each year, making effective control a challenge. Hand-pulling or digging up crabgrass can be labor-intensive and may not prevent reinfestation.
