Our
Basic Lawn Program: (6 Visits):
Round
#1: Supplies Dry Granular Fertilizers & Pre-emergent
Crabgrass Control
Fertilizer at this time is crucial for an early spring
green up. These are also the months when we can most
effectively control crabgrass, foxtail, and other annual
grasses. You must act quickly though, to ensure the
greatest percentage of control this application should
be applied before ground temperatures reach 55 degrees.
Broadleaf weed control is only included as needed and
only after temperatures have reached 55 degrees or above.
Round #2: Supplies a Balanced
Rate of Dry Fertilizers & Broadleaf Weed Control
A balanced rate of dry granular fertilization along
with liquid broadleaf weed control will be applied at
this time. Please remember we can only control those
broadleaf weeds that are actively growing at the time
of each application. This is a critical time for insect
activity to start. We will inspect your lawn for activity
and recommend insecticides as needed to control turf
damaging insects.
Round
#3: Supplies Slow Release Dry Fertilizers & Broadleaf
Weed Control
At this time we begin to apply our slow release blends
of dry granular fertilizer to ensure consistent green
turf with no burning. The more difficult to control
weeds begin to germinate at this time of year. Heavier
strength broadleaf weed treatments are applied at this
time to ensure full control of all broadleaf weeds.
This is also the time of the year we recommend applying
our grub worm preventative treatment to protect your
lawn from this very aggressive turf damaging insect.
Round
#4: Supplies Slow Release Dry Fertilizers & Spot
Treatment for Weeds
At this time we continue to apply our slow release blends
of dry granular fertilizer to ensure consistent green
turf with no burning. This is also our most important
time to check and inspect your lawn for problems. Cool
season grasses begin to show signs of stress from drought,
insect activity, and disease activity at this time.
You can ensure we will bring to your attention any threat(s)
to your lawns health and the proper solution(s).
Round
#5: Supplies Heavy Rate Dry Granular Fertilizer &
Broadleaf Weed Control
A heavy rate of dry granular fertilization along with
liquid broadleaf weed control will be applied at this
time. Falls cool temperatures are a great time to build
your lawns density and root development. The products
applied at this time are designed to take full advantage
of these great growing conditions. We also highly recommend
Core Aerations at this time to reduce soil compaction
and build upon our root development efforts while reducing
thatch build up.
Round
#6: Winterize Treatment (Dry Potash Fertilizer) &
Spot Treat For Weeds
A dry potash fertilizer is applied at this time of the
year to help ensure proper root development and to prepare
for your lawn for the dormant season. This application
will continue to build upon your lawns color and density
while helping prevent winter damage.
