This fertilization treatment is applied in late April/May. It contains a nitrogen-rich all-granular fertilizer, liquid pre-emergent, and liquid blanket weed control that will: Ensures your grass won’t run out of essential nutrients during a time of explosive growth. Remove any newly germinated weeds throughout the property. Help prevent germination and growth of crabgrass and other seed-borne weeds later in the season.

In July we’ll re-introduce nutrients to your lawn. This application maintains healthy growth during the hottest summer months. It continues a time-released, all granular fertilizer and spot weed control. Our technician will also treat any remaining weeds while on site.ROUND 5 - LATE SUMMER
We’ll put our late-summer application down in August. It re-introduces even more nutrients to maintain healthy growth as summer ends.ROUND 6 - EARLY FALL
In the fall we’re thinking about stimulating root growth and adding a blanket of weed control. So, in September we apply a time-released, all granular fertilizer that features a robust infusion of nutrients. This helps maintain healthy growth throughout the fall growing season. Your technician will also make sure there aren’t any undiagnosed issues present in your turf.ROUND 7 - LATE FALL
The final lawn care treatment is done in October. It’s an all-granular fertilizer that contains a blend of macronutrients to get your lawn ready for winter. Our winterizer also helps reduce the chances of snow mold developing in the spring.Contact Lush Lawn Today
