Over Seeding

Helps promote seed germination normally applied at the same time. Helps fill any bare spots and promotes thick lush lawns.

Grub Control

Applied in late spring to early summer and now included as part of our Basic 5 Lawn Care Program schedule.

 

Lime Application

Helps reduce soil acidity. Our lawn turf technician will take a soil sample of your lawn and send it off for pH testing to insure it measures between 6.0-7.0 (see explanation below). Granular lime applications (reduces dusty residue) are applied to properly restore the proper pH balance to your soil. Best applied in the fall.

 

A word about lime applications

Q. Is Lime Application Necessary?

A. The only way to determine whether or not lime is required, and how much to apply, is through a soil test conducted at a state or commercial soil testing laboratory. A soil test kit or pH probe used by the homeowner, or at the local garden center, to test soil pH may indicate the need for liming. However, these simple tests do not allow one to determine how much lime is needed to correct the acidic condition.

Q. How Much Lime Should Be Applied?

A. The only way to determine whether or not lime is required, and how much to apply, is through a soil test conducted at a state or commercial soil testing laboratory.

However, these simple tests do not allow one to determine how much lime is needed to correct the acidic condition.

Q. How Often Should Lime Be Applied?

A. Lime should be applied only when soil testing indicates that it is needed. Yearly lime applications, without making a soil test, are strongly discouraged because alkaline (high pH) conditions may develop. Depending on the soil test results, lime application may need to be applied twice during the year to properly balance the pH.

Q. When Is The Best Time To Apply Lime?

A. Lime can be applied at any time during the year. However, it should not be applied to turf that in late fall. The turf should be irrigated after application in order to wash any lime off of the turf grass leaves.
