Your lawn will benefit from a consistent, year-round plan to achieve a lush, healthy, weed-free lawn. Depending on the condition of your lawn, it can take time to have a great lawn. As your specialist spends more time working on your lawn, your lawn’s appearance will continue to improve.
Weeds are best treated before they germinate with pre-emergent weed control, which is applied in the fall to warm-season grasses and in the spring to cool-season grasses. Post-emergent weed control can be applied to visible weeds and will begin to see a decline within 10–14 days and several weeks for them to disappear. For weeds that are difficult to control, multiple visits or specialized products may be required to gain acceptable control.
A combination of fertilization and adequate watering will help ensure your lawn receives the proper nutrition and hydration it needs to thrive. Depending on your soil pH, a soil amendment may be needed to ensure a healthy foundation for growth. The timing of such applications and expectations for results will vary by region. Plus, lawn-damaging insect control can help keep grubs or chinch bugs from damaging your healthy turf.
Your lawn may also benefit from aeration and overseeding, where appropriate, to allow the roots access to air, nutrients, and water. This will help achieve a thicker, healthier lawn that can crowd out weeds from gaining a foothold in the spring.
Every lawn and its challenges are unique, and we will provide progress updates and special instructions for your lawn at each service visit.
