JULY AND AUGUST

Summer is upon us now. Humidity has taken its toll on plants and many lawns have suffered from fungal diseases.

The summer months also bring on insects. Many of these can cause damage to a nice lawn in a hurry. We already treat your lawn for grubs, but there are many other lawn pests that cause problems.

If you notice brown patches of any kind, and are unsure if it is drought stress or disease/insect, call us to get a proper diagnosis and treatment plan.

We are also beginning our shrub and tree trimming now as we end early summer. If you are not on our scheduled list of shrub timming, call us and we would be gald to view your property and give you and estimate and evaluation with a plan to get your landscape in the condition you desire.

May and June

Late spring is now upon us.

We are finishing the weed control applications right now and will begin grub control applications around the end of May. Also shrub trimming will be done during these months to cut off spring flush of new growth.

During these months with humididy and frequent rains fungus and insect issues may arise! Be on the lookout for any thing that may indicate problems and contact us to diagnose any potential disease or insect damages to both turf and shrubs/trees.

Things to look for reguarding fungus are small to medium sized patches of
discolored turf and spots on the leaf blades of yellow or brown.

THis is also the time for insects to ruin some of your trees and shrubs. One of the most common pests we will see are bagworms. If you have had issues in the past then we recommend treaments for the future as the problem will continue and only get worse.

We can diagnose, treat and prevent damages caused to any of your turf or
landscape plants so give us a call if you have anyu concerns!

Spring is upon us now with warmer weather and rains!! Now is the time to clean up lawns and landscapes to prepare them for new green growth and beautiful flowers!

March is the best time to put down a pre -emergent for your lawn to protect against crabgrass and certain weeds along with a spring fertilizer to promote vigorous new growth. It is also the time to clean up leaves, sticks and the top dead layer of grass to promote a great start to a beautiful lawn.

Clearing debri and dead plant materials in your landscape is key to support new growth. After this has been done, a fresh layer of mulch is important for the health of the plants as well as the asthetic renewal of your investment surrounding your home.

Please call or email for your lawn and lansdcape needs this spring!!

winter is approaching, what needs to be done??

Well, let me answer that for you.

1.Cut your lawn shorter and remove debri if applicable
2. fertilize for the winter

Give us a call for an estimate or contact us here through our website!

More information
Your lawn should be mowed shorter this time of year so it does not choke itself over snow covered days. As grass continues to grow over the winter , cutting it shorter in late Fall helps so that it is not too tall come spring.,

Another reason to cut shorter is leftover debri during the winter, such as leaves, can more easlily blow across the lawn instead of getting trapped in tall grass and then matting down with rain and snow causing dead spots.

A good high nitrogen fertilizer should be applied in late fall to feed the plant over the Winter months so it will start growth earlier and faster in the spring.

Fall lawn and irrigation service

As fall is in gear, so will be the time to clean up the lawn and lansdcape from debris and leaves. We would be glad to help with these tasks!

Also, the end of October we will be winterizing irrigation systems. Call now to reserve your time and day for this very important service.
