Lush Lawns Start with Proper Fertilization & Weed Control: Here's Why
The Importance of Proper Fertilization & Weed Control
A well-fertilized lawn, in combination with effective weed control, is the cornerstone of an attractive landscape. Fertilizers provide essential nutrients, supporting root development, promoting new leaf growth, and helping grass resist disease and pests, while weed control aids in the overall health and appearance of your lawn. Proper fertilization isn't a one-time application; it's an ongoing, strategic process that should be complemented by regular weed control practices. By integrating weed control as an aspect of lawn care, you can create an environment where your grass thrives while minimizing the competition from invasive plants. This combination of fertilization and weed control will contribute to a lush, vibrant lawn that enhances the beauty of your landscape.
Our Comprehensive Fertilization & Weed Control Program
Round 1: Ready for Growth
Our five-round control program starts in mid-May with a balanced turf fertilizer, pre-emergent for crabgrass, and broadleaf weed control. This nourishes your lawn and prevents the spread of unwanted weeds.
Round 2: Color and Control
From mid-May to early July, we repeat Round 1 steps and add iron to maintain your turf’s green color. This round also includes grub and insect control to protect against pests.
Round 3: Summer Shield
Applied from early July through Labor Day, Round 3 mirrors Round 2, providing essential nutrients and protection during the hot summer months.
Round 4: Preparing for Rest
From Labor Day through the end of October, Round 4 involves another dose of balanced turf fertilizer and broadleaf weed control. This prepares your lawn for winter dormancy.
Round 5: Core Aeration
The final round is a core aeration, allowing water, air, and nutrients to penetrate the soil more efficiently. This round may also include seeding or overseeding to thicken your turf. Beyond these rounds, our services extend to mosquito and insect control, providing relief from unwelcome guests.
