Pre-emergent granular plus crabgrass preventer. This treatment should be applied from late February to early March. This is designed to kill crabgrass before it starts. This treatment will also provide the lawn with the nutrients it requires to start growing again after being dormant all winter.

This treatment should be applied in April. This is designed to kill dandelion, plantain, clover, knotweed, henbit, chickweed, spurge and more than 90 listed weeds. The entire area of turf should be sprayed for quick and instant results.

Weed and feed granular. This application should be applied in May. This is like the Trimec targeting broadleaf weeds. The short term Trimec and slow release of the weed and feed make for a perfect combination to keep weeds u under control. Weed and feed combine herbicide and fertilizer to control weeds and nourish the lawn simultaneously. The duration of the treatment is 4-6 weeks.

This application is a fertilizer plus grub preventer. Before the intense heat it is important to treat the lawn for grubs. The eggs will hatch into grubs, which feed heavily on grass roots throughout the late summer and early fall, causing extensive damage. It is also important to kill grubs to deter moles. The mole feeds mainly on grubs and can leave your lawn very damaged.

This treatment will be applied in moderation. We will walk the property and spot spraying all weeds that may be present. This product is designed to kill any broadleaf weeds that may be present.

This treatment will be applied as needed. Q4 is designed to kill grassy weeds like nut sedge and crab grass. The property will be spot sprayed of any lingering grassy weeds.

The best time to seed your lawn is in the fall. Cool nights, warm days, and ample rain fall make ideal growing conditions. The lawn should be mowed very short, and the clippings should be bagged. Aeration will remove the core of the lawn allowing for seed, nutrients, and water to enter the soil. After the aeration a heavy grass seed and starter fertilizer should be applied to the lawn. The lawn should be watered two times a day for roughly 20 minutes per section for 2 consecutive weeks. Then, the lawn should be watered once a day for 2 weeks. The lawn should not be mowed for 4 weeks. When it is time to finally mow again the grass should be mowed as tall as the mower can go. It is best to avoid foot traffic and any chemicals while the grass seed is germinating.

Grass is recovering from a long hot summer and may be coming out of a drought-induced dormancy, so you'll want to give your lawn a shot of nitrogen to help it recover. This application is a combination of slow and quick release nitrogen to ensure the lawn is properly restored.

A winter guard should be applied; this will prepare your lawn for freezing temperatures, strengthen roots and increase nitrogen storage for a healthier lawn next year. This application will help the yard receive phosphorus and potash to help build a strong root system going into winter.
