4th Application
This application is the fourth of six regularly scheduled carefully formulated applications to your lawn.
The prime objective of this application is to maintain seasonal growth and color. This application includes a seasonal fertilizer designed for warmer temperatures. This application may also include iron when necessary to help maintain color.
Along with the fertilization, a broadleaf weed control and insect control will be applied, when necessary, for those pesky weeds and insects if found. This application may also include a post-emergent weed control for weedy grasses.
We thank you for using our services and we will be 100% committed to having you happy with your lawn and landscape and our services.

Aeration
Aeration is an essential practice for a healthy and attractive lawn. It will both help decrease thatch and it will promote root growth. The root system is actively growing at this time of year. A healthy root system is the foundation of a beautiful lawn. We offer this service at a super price.6 Steps To A Beautiful Lawn
The following six practices are steps that you can take to further enhance the beauty of your lawn, making it the best it can be.- Maintain 1/2" to 1" of water per week throughout growing season. When watering, water heavily and do it in the morning.
- Mow lawn regularly, maintaining a height between 2 1/2" and 3 1/2" for cool season grasses and 1 1/2" and 2 1/2" for warm season grasses (southern locations). Avoid taking more than 1/3 of grass blade at one mowing. Lawn clippings return needed nutrients to the soil, therefore avoid removing after every mowing. Use a well sharpened blade.
- Have lawn aerated once a year. Aerate twice a year if your lawn has a heavy thatch layer or the soil is heavy clay. This is the most beneficial practice because it promotes root growth – essential for a healthy lawn.
- Control weedy perennial grasses such as coarse fescue and bentgrass by using roundup or by digging them out. Following the first 3 steps will do much to squeeze them out. If you have any questions about these grasses please consult with your lawn specialist.
- Minimize damage from shade by thinning trees and shrubs and removing lower branches. Seed with 5 lbs./1000 sq. ft. of red fescue. Try to avoid traffic and in the fall, keep leaves raked.
- Please consult your lawn specialist if you see any changes in your lawn or you have any concerns with your lawn or landscape.
