Round 1: We apply pre-emergent and post-emergent herbicides to prevent grassy weeds and some broadleaf weeds. We add potassium to Bermuda, Zoysia and St. Augustine applications to build roots. Fescue applications include more nitrogen to promote top growth. (January – February)
Round 2: More pre-emergent and post-emergent herbicides are applied to knock-back existing weeds and prevent future growth as part of our lawn care program. We treat for common weeds including crabgrass, Poa annua (annual bluegrass), Henbit, chickweed, nutsedge, spurge, dandelions, Bermuda oxalis and chamberbitter. (February – March)
Round 3:We apply a liquid mixture of controlled release fertilizer and post-emergent weed control. The fertilizer promotes growth and color and the post-emergents help knock-back existing weeds. We recommend Aeration for Bermuda and Zoysia lawns at this time. (April-May)
Round 4: More fertilizer is applied to promote a healthy, green lawn, as well as liquid post-emergent herbicides for weeds. Lime is applied to Fescue lawns to condition the soil and adjust the pH level. (June – July)
Round 5: Lime is applied to Bermuda, Zoysia, St. Augustine and Centipede lawns to raise the pH and reduce acidity for better growth. We prepare Fescue lawns for aeration and seeding and apply post-emergent herbicides for weeds, as needed. (July – August)
Round 6: We apply pre-emergent and post-emergent herbicides with potassium to Bermuda, Zoysia, St. Augustine and Centipede lawns to prepare for winter lawn care. For Fescue, we apply a balanced slow release fertilizer to promote root and top growth. Aeration and seeding is recommended for Fescue lawns, available as a separate service. (September – October)
Round 7: We apply more pre- and post-emergent herbicides with potassium to Bermuda, Zoysia, St. Augustine and Centipede lawns. Fescue lawns receive more slow-release fertilizer with higher nitrogen levels. (November – December)
