WEED CONTROL &
LAWN FERTILIZATION SERVICE

A balanced slow-release granular fertilizer will be applied to promote a healthy spring green-up and a vigorous lawn ready to recover from its winter dormancy. Also included in this treatment is a pre-emergent Crabgrass Control that prevents 80-85% of Crabgrass seeds from germinating in late spring. A Cold Weather Weed Control may also be applied if weather conditions allow. This product will get a jump-start on weed control and prepare it for the blanket weed control application that will be applied during the second treatment of the season. 

A blanket application of liquid weed control will be applied to your entire property to control for early season germinating weeds. This treatment is very important because it is one of only two treatments per season that we are allowed by law to apply a blanket application of weed control to your entire property.  A thick dense lawn is the best defense against weeds, and our late Spring Fertilizer will help continue to thicken your lawn in preparation for Summer.

A professional blend of balanced fertilizers will be applied, including Potassium for continued strong root development and plant health before summer. New broadleaf weeds germinate every 3—5 weeks throughout the Summer, so there will be a continued focus on treating any new weeds that have germinated since previous treatments.

This treatment is included in ONLY our 6 and 7 treatment plans. As the Summer heats up, there will be an increase in turf damaging insects that require a professional eye, and some TLC (Tender Lawn Care). Our Technicians will be on the lookout for sod webworms and chinch bugs that pose a threat to the overall health of your lawn. If any turf damaging insects are found, Insect control will be applied at no additional cost for those signed up for all 7 treatments. A summer formulated granular fertilizer will also be applied, with a continued focus on treating any newly germinated broadleaf weeds that may have popped up since previous treatments.

A late summer blend of balanced granular fertilization will be applied to continue promoting your lawn’s health as the summer stress subsides. A blanket application of Broadleaf Weed Control will be applied to your entire property. This is the second and final time per season that we are allowed by law to apply weed control to your entire property. This blanket application will control stubborn weeds and get a jump start on fall germinating weeds, which will directly affect the amount of weeds you see in the Spring.

As cool fall temperatures return, prime growing conditions will arrive! The ultimate factor in turf health is a deep, healthy root system. Fall  is when 80% of root growth takes place. Our specially blended Fall Fertilizer will enhance this root growth by feeding the root system of your turf, resulting in a healthier, greener lawn all season long. We will continue to target any broadleaf weeds that may have germinated since the last treatment, which will directly affect the amount of weeds you see in the Spring. This is the perfect time of year to schedule our Fall Core Aeration which will take fall root growth to the next level!

The final treatment of the season is one of the most important treatments! As your lawn prepares for winter dormancy by sending nutrients to its root system, our high Potassium Pre-Winter Blend of balanced fertilizers will enhance your lawn’s health and provide the needed nutrients to prepare for a harsh Michigan winter.
