Our 7-Step Program

Round 1 - Early March

An early dose of slow-release fertilizer provides essential nutrients, plus crabgrass pre-emergent is applied. Timing is crucial to effectively prevent and control crabgrass for the season.

A second application of crabgrass pre-emergent plus fertilizer is applied to extend control into the summer months.

At this time, we also blanket spray the lawn for broadleaf weeds killing them before they’re ever visible to clean up any early season growth

These rounds are completed together during the same visit.

  • Application of a slow-release early summer fertilizer
  • Spot treatment of any visible broadleaf or grassy weeds
  • Application of grub control at optimal timing to protect the lawn from insect damage
  • Nutsedge control is available as an add-on to your treatment program, particularly following a wet season.
Application of an organic, non-burning fertilizer along with a humic soil conditioner to improve soil health. During this visit, we actively monitor for any signs of these weeds and treat as needed with post-emergent applications:
  • Broadleaf weeds
  • Crabgrass breakthrough
Nutsedge control is available as an add-on to your treatment program, particularly following a wet season.

As summer heat breaks, this is the ideal time for aeration and overseeding.

  • Thorough aeration 
  • Overseeding with approximately 5 lbs of premium tall fescue per 1,000 sq ft 
  • Additional seed applied in thinner or bare areas 
  • Starter fertilizer applied to promote germination 

For customers not selecting aeration and overseeding:

  • A fall slow-release fertilizer is applied 
  • Spot treatment of weeds is performed 

Application of a winterizer fertilizer to prepare the lawn for winter.

This lawn care fertilizer service helps:

  • Store nutrients in the root system 
  • Promote a stronger, healthier lawn coming out of dormancy in the spring
