6-Step Lawncare & Fertilization Program

 

Step 1

Spring Application (March/April)...
This treatment consists of a granular fertilizer that will help your lawn green up and recover from the winter. We also apply pre-emergent crabgrass and broadleaf control, which will establish a barrier that will not kill existing plants but will prevent weeds from growing.

Step 2

Late Spring Application (April/May)...
This treatment consists of a slow-release seasonal fertilizer containing iron+ nitrogen... This helps improve color and density. Also, an application of broadleaf weed control. This application will prepare your lawn for the stress of summer.

Step 3

Early Summer Application (May/June)...
This post-emergent crabgrass control and fertilizer is a slow-release granular fertilizer that will help promote a healthy root system and will prepare your lawn for the summer.

Step 4

Grub Control (June/July/September)...
This application makes sure your lawn will be free of grubs, sod webworms, and aphids.

Step 5

Summer Application... (August/September)...
Fall weed control & fertilizer controls new weeds that can emerge and helps your grass recover from the heat and dryness of summer.

Step 6

Fall Application (October/ November)...
Dormant fertilizer and final weed control take on late germinating weeds and give your grass the final treatment it needs to thrive during the winter and green up early in the spring.
