Seasonal Tips and Tricks

Preventing Fall & Winter Weeds

WATER! WATER! WATER! Proper irrigation is critical at this time of year.

For some lawns, especially those without ideal irrigation, the effects of summer heat and drought may expose your grass to elevated pest and disease pressure.

While the primary purpose of this treatment is to prevent Fall and Winter weeds, an important aspect of this visit is pest and disease monitoring.

Round 8 is a critical prevention window and one that plays a major role in how your lawn finishes this season and starts the next.

What Are We Applying?

Round 7 brings nitrogen back into focus, but in a very intentional way. We’re utilizing a premium fertilizer that combines:

  • dual-coated urea → Controlled, steady nitrogen release & Improves nutrient efficiency and soil interaction

  • Added Potassium (6%) → Continues supporting stress recovery and plant strength

This is not a quick push.

It’s a measured reintroduction of nitrogen designed to:

  • Rebuild the density lost during the summer

  • Restore color and vigor

  • Support recovery without overstimulation

Spot-Spray Weed Control (Included)

As always, any existing weeds present during this visit will be addressed using our targeted spot-spray method. While these applications are not organic, this approach dramatically reduces overall chemical usage compared to traditional blanket applications.

What to Expect After Round 7

WATER! WATER! WATER! Proper irrigation is critical at this time of year.

Plants CAN NOT feed without water, and starving plants DO NOT DO WELL in stressful weather conditions.

  • Color begins to deepen again

  • Density improves

  • Growth becomes more active but still controlled

It’s not a sudden spike.

It’s a steady recovery.

Pre & Post-Treatment Instructions

To get the most out of this treatment:

After treatment:

  • Allow at least 1 hour before re-entry.

    • We will leave a clearly visible service sign with the date and time of application, so you and your maintenance crew can easily follow the recommended re-entry window. This helps protect anyone working in the landscape and ensures the treatment is not disrupted before it has time to fully take effect.

  • Normal watering or irrigation will help move nutrients into the soil.
