Lawn Care Tips
My First Herald-Zeitung Column: From Mowing Grass to Mowing Weeds
Lemonade Lawn Care • November 12, 2026 • 1 min read
Starting this month, I'm writing a monthly lawn care column for the New Braunfels Herald-Zeitung. It runs the second Wednesday of every month, and it's the same advice I give our own customers: no sales pitch, just what works on Hill Country soil.
The first one ran November 11. It's about that unfair moment when you finally get cool weather and the weeds pick up where the grass left off. It covers what to do if you missed the fall pre-emergent window, how to mow as growth slows, why to get the leaves off, and why most "winterizer" bags belong on the shelf.

If you'd rather go deeper on any of it, we've covered the same ground here on the site: when to put down pre-emergent and how to water a Bermuda lawn in New Braunfels.
Next month's column is about your lawn's winter nap, and why brown grass in January isn't dead grass. Have a lawn question you'd like answered in a future column? Email dave@lemonadelawncare.com.
