Lawn care applications

THE GOAL OF OUR LAWN CARE APPLICATIONS IS TO USE ORGANIC PRACTICES THAT FEED THE SOIL AND CREATE A STRONGER, HEALTHIER GRASS PLANT.

OUR METHOD

All our programs seek to use progressively less pesticides and nitrogen as the treatment plans progress. Completely organic options are available, including a full season of organic fertilization provided over 5 visits at no additional charge. Our 100% plant-based product adds vital living microbes to the soil as well as using an organic based compost tea.

OUR APPROACH

Our approach improves the way your lawn takes up nutrients while aiding the lawn to resist insects, disease and weed encroachment. This results in a lawn with a rich green color, healthier plants and soil, and less environmental impact. Core aeration and over seeding are also important parts of the program and are recommended to be performed on an annual basis.

SEASONAL TIPS

When should crabgrass treatment begin?

Since crabgrass seeds germinate during the early spring, pre-emergent treatments need to take place before then to be effective. The best time to apply these treatments is when temperatures are colder and before the nighttime soil temperature reaches over 50-55℉ for three days.

Should I be concerned about mushrooms in my lawn?

Mushrooms are a naturally occurring species that pop up on overcast days and when there is a lot of moisture. They are nothing to be alarmed about and will disappear as quickly as they appear once there are some dry days with sunshine.

What can I do to get rid of snow mold?

Snow mold appears as discolored spots in your yard after the winter season. While snow mold typically corrects itself as the weather dries out and sunshine appears, it’s also recommended to lightly rake those spots or use a leaf blower to fluff up matted down areas.

Does fungicide fix my lawn disease problem?

Fungicide prevents the lawn disease problem from spreading, but the unsightly grass will need to grow out.

Should I roll my lawn in the spring?

No, rolling your lawn actually damages the crown of the grass plant. A core aeration should be performed to relieve compaction and aid with drainage from spring rain.

When should I begin to mow my grass in the spring?

Spring mowing should begin when your soil is firm and not damp. This can damage your lawn and cause unsightly mud marks.
