Treatments
First Treatment
(January-March)
Pre & Post Emergent Weed Control Application
This pre-emergent application works by creating a barrier in the soil to prevent any type of seed from growing into the soil. Depending on weather conditions, you may get up to 3 months of pre-emergence control from this treatment. A post-emergent product is also applied for any weeds that are currently existing in the turf area.
Fourth Treatment
(June-July)
Growing Season Fertilizer Application
This fertilizer has been custom blended for Oklahoma turf. It contains phosphorous, iron, sulfur, and an extended-release nitrogen. It has the added benefit of extreme greening. A spot treatment of any hard-to-kill weeds will also be done at this time.
Second Treatment
(March-April)
Pre & Post Emergent Weed Control Application
This application is a booster of the pre-emergent ingredient applied for the purpose of extending the life of the pre-emergent in the soil throughout the growing season. A post-emergent product is also added to kill any weeds that may have appeared since the previous treatment. Depending on weather conditions, we may use a different pre-emergent for different weed control each year.
Fifth Treatment
(August-September)
Growing Season Fertilizer Application
This is the same product and treatment as the 4th treatment. A spot treatment of hard-to-kill weeds will be done at this time.
Third Treatment
(May)
High Nitrogen Fertilizer Application
This is applied for quick spring green-up, rapid growth, & spreading of the turf grass. A spot treatment will be done at this time to take care of any hard-to-kill weeds.
Sixth and Final Treatment
(October-November)
Winterizing Pre & Post Emergent Application
It is imperative that this application be applied in order to prevent some weeds that actually germinate in the fall from lying dormant until next spring, only to pop-up throughout the entire lawn. This is the key in starting off next season with the best possible lawn conditions.
