Welcome to my services page. I am a professional gardener servicing Okemos, East Lansing, Lansing Haslett and Williamson. I want to take the time to go in depth about services I provide. The first thing I want to talk about is weeding and the methods I use. Pulling by hand, using a hoe, applying Roundup, digging up.
To clarify when weeding I have 3 goals. 1) remove the weeds with best method that suits my clients needs and budget. 2) make sure I'm removing the roots of the plants I remove 3) treat area to prevent further growth of weeds.
Pulling weeds by hand is best for customers that have ground cover and other plants they wish to protect during the removal of weeds. When I pull by hand I use knee pads and gloves for saftey. I keep with me a pair of pruning sheers and a hand trowel with me for tough to pull roots. I make sure I pull up as much of the root I can digging out the rest with the hand trowl as needed.
A garden hoe is best to use in areas where there are no other plants that need to be saved. This method of weeding is far faster than pulling by hand and can cover lots of area quickly while still pulling up the roots of weed. Here I just hoe, rake, bag waste and then repeat utill there are no more weeds.
Round up is used a few way. 1) by applying round up after weeding. 2) using round up in rock beds and along rock boarders. 3) with large over grown weeds to help knock them all down to a managable level.
