Weed Growth Around Synthetic Turf Edges & What You Can Do About It

While weed growth is generally more of an issue for natural grass lawns, it can sometimes grow around the edges of artificial turf. If you do notice weed growth around the edge of your synthetic turf, here’s what you can do to address it.
Weed growth can occur for a number of reasons whether it be because of erosion or sediment. If your turf edges weren’t cut properly during install, they will not rest effectively against your wood deck, concrete, or other platforms. This contributes to sedimental build-up, and weed growth around the parameters of your synthetic grass landscape.
