Fall aeration is an important factor for the overall health of our lawns!

You should be taking steps now to rejuvenate your lawn.
The 2 Landscape Governing Bodies (NCSU and NC Dept of Agriculture) have the following recommendations:
1.    AERATION -- All lawns need aeration to loosen soil compaction brought on by the winter temperatures.
2.    LIME – Helps balance the soil’s pH level and adds micronutrients such as Magnesium and Calcium.
3.    PRE-EMERGENT HERBICIDE- This is a weed blocker that should be applied in early spring to prevent crabgrass and other unwanted weeds from taking over your turf. This is an integral part of keeping your yard beautiful and weed-free. It is applied in conjunction with ORGANIC FERTILIZATION- Nutrients needed for your grass to thrive and the fertilizer works below the soil where weed seeds germinate. Please note that if your property has an invisible fence installed, we are not liable for any damage.

It Is Time To Think Of Fall Lawn Care.

Ready For Summer To Be Over? What About The Fall?

Fall aeration is an important factor for the overall health of our lawns in this region. Due to the hard clay makeup for our soil, this should be done twice a year. A Core Aeration will relieve soil compaction and allow a proper exchange of oxygen and nutrients to the root system aiding its development. YOU SHOULD be taking steps now to rejuvenate your lawn.

Looks Like Rain!

Happy Independence Day to everyone out there. Looks like our region is going to get a little bit of rain this weekend. This will help out the lawns tremendously as most lawns right now are dried up due to the summer heat that came early this year. Just remember to keep the lawns cut between 3.5" and 4", apply a nitrogen rich fertilizer, apply a fungicide to prevent brown patch and if your purses will allow you make sure you are watering 2-3 times a week between the hours of 4am-10am. Also we do offer mosquito treatments for this time of year too! All of these steps and your lawn will survive and you can have all the outside time in your lawn that you want. Hope everyone has a great and safe holiday weekend and a huge Happy Birthday to America!
