Five-Step Lawn Fertilization Program in Minnesota
Turf Care Inc. offers a comprehensive 5-step lawn fertilization program designed to create and maintain a healthy, thick, weed-free lawn.
Starting in early spring and running through the fall, our lawn fertilization program in Minnesota includes the following:
Spring – Slow-release fertilizer design for color and stimulate growth coming out of dormancy. A pre-emergent to control unwanted grasses. Spot spray weeds as necessary.
Early Summer – Blanket Spray weed control. Slow-release fertilizer with enzymes to help the plant take up all available nutrients.
Summer – Slow-release fertilizer, and soil amendments that help the plant on a cellular level combat the stress of the hot summer months.
Late Summer – Balance fertilizer, which promotes root development that will thicken turf. Blanket weed spray.
Fall – Nutrients that will prepare the plant for the harsh winter and encourage healthy growth in the spring. Now is the best time to spot spray for all tough weeds like Creeping Charlie and Wild Violet.
You will notice on our program we fertilize on each treatment. It’s far better for the plant and the environment to spoon feed your lawn, more often with less product, then apply high amounts of fertilizer at any one time. Our practices reduce the chance for runoff into wetlands. We also apply the latest products in plant and soil technology. This science maximizes each nutrient we apply to the environment. It allows for a reduction in the amount of fertilizer as the plant is prepared to utilize all the natural minerals and nutrients in the soil.
