TURF MANAGEMENT: Weed Control & LAWN Fertilization
Optimal Turf Management Prevents, Controls, and Cures
Protecting your turf from invasive weeds, grubs, and disease requires a proactive management plan. Implementing a strategic plan will help maintain and improve your lawn’s health so the seasonal threats from drought, pests, fungus, and weed propagation are quickly addressed and don’t get out of control. Our solutions work in all three phases of turf management – Prevention, Control, and Cure.
We use a mix of natural and chemical products to manage the health of your lawn. Our focus on cultural practices (Mowing Instructions, Adequate Fertilization, Aeration, Seeding) and maintaining a healthy soil nutrient profile, results in building a dense stand of turf. Premium products and proper application rates ensure turf health, encouraging root development, dense growth, rich color, and increased tolerance to weather and disease stress.
CAREFUL CHEMICAL APPLICATION IN specific TREATMENT PlANS
Haphazard spraying of lawns with fertilizers and pesticides will only lead to problems: over-application of nutrients, killing good insects, compromising the health of the existing turf grasses, and making weeds more resilient. Ultimately weeds take over as the grasses struggle to survive in the unhealthy soil matrix, sometimes requiring a full lawn renovation.
In our approach, we evaluate the lawn, test the soil, and then develop custom treatment plans based on the nutrient needs in your lawn. We are MDA Certified Nutrient Management and Pesticide Applicators, ensuring your lawn gets safe and effective results.
