Soil temp update 4-22

[LwnmwnMan2]

I was out an about this morning, from North Branch down to Bloomington.

IMO, this next 10 day stretch looks like a good time to be doing some work if you're south of St. Cloud. We've got the warmer soil temps now, so you're going to be working with the pre-emergent if you haven't done so already.

The rains that are off and on are going to work well with getting the fertilizer into the soil, as well as breaking down the particles to get the chemical barrier spread out.

I'll be working my higher / harder ground properties over, spreading the fertilizer and spraying the pre-emergent.

I know guys in Rochester / southern MN are already starting to "mow" areas here and there, where the ground is warmer.

It's not a mow like you have to mow weekly, just a touchup here and there.
