Seasonal Application Timeline
What happens and when throughout the year
Base Program: core seasonal applications.
Turf Protection: adds enhanced summer fertilizer, grub control, preventative fungicide applications and aeration.
Spring Applications
March - MaySpring Fertilizer + Crabgrass Prevention
Feeds turf as it exits dormancy and creates chemical barrier to prevent crabgrass germination.
Spring Weed Control + Reinforced Pre-Emergent
Kills visible broadleaf weeds and adds redundancy during peak crabgrass germination window.
Summer Applications
June - AugustSummer Spot Weed Control
Targeted herbicide applied only where weeds are present to minimize stress on heat-stressed turf.
Summer Slow-Release Fertilizer (Standard)
Maintains color and density without forcing growth during summer heat stress.
Enhanced Slow-Release Summer Fertilizer
Additional nutrition and protection during peak summer stress.
Preventative Fungicide
Protects turf from many common heat-driven fungal diseases with 2 applications before infection occurs.
Grub Control
Stops grub larvae before root damage occurs. Prevention is the only effective strategy.
Fall Applications
September - NovemberFall Weed Control
Most effective weed-killing season. Herbicide moves into root systems for maximum control.
Late-Fall Winterizer
Most important fertilizer of the year as it feeds grass to strengthen it going into winter.
Core Aeration
Relieves soil compaction and improves oxygen, water, and nutrient movement. The only physical soil correction in the system.
Aeration: The Foundation of Every Program
Aeration opens compacted soil so fertilizers and weed control deliver their best results.
Spring Aeration
- Loosens soil before growth surge
- Improves early nutrient uptake
- Best for heavily compacted lawns
Timing: Early to Mid Spring
Fall Aeration
- Safest and most effective timing
- Maximizes root development
- Enhances winterizer effectiveness
Timing: Early to Mid Fall
If doing only one aeration per year, fall is best.
Spring & Fall Aeration
- Maximum compaction relief
- Season-long soil structure improvement
- Highest turf density over time
Best For: Customers wanting maximum thickness turf, best disease-prevention option, high-traffic lawn and clay soil.

What Each Treatment Does
Detailed explanations of every application
Base-Program Applications
Feeds turf as it wakes up and lays a pre-emergent barrier to stop crabgrass from sprouting. This sets the baseline for season-long weed control.
Targets visible broadleaf weeds and reinforces the crabgrass barrier as temperatures rise. Keeps weed pressure low during the main spring flush.
Targets only active weed patches to help reduce stress some turf may have while keeping weeds in check.
Steady nutrition to maintain color and density without pushing growth during summer heat.
Fall is the most effective time to kill weeds because herbicide moves into the roots. Fewer weeds return next spring.
Feeds roots before winter for earlier spring green-up, thicker turf, and better stress tolerance. It also provides fall nutrients to strengthen lawn going into winter.
Pulls soil cores to relieve compaction and improve water, air, and nutrient flow before summer stress.
Turf Protection Additional Applications
Everything from Base Program PLUS:
Combines spot weed control, preventative fungicide, and fertilizer to protect turf during peak summer stress.
Extends disease protection and prevents grub damage while keeping summer nutrition steady.
The best timing for aeration. Opens soil for fall root growth and improves moisture and nutrient movement. Also improves lawn health going into winter to help with spring green up and disease prevention.
Optional Add-Ons
Extra feeding for high-traffic lawns or customers wanting thicker grass and higher-end 6# of Nitrogen/1,000 ft2/per-year goal.
Preventative treatment applied in late June/early July before grubs hatch.
Preventative fungicide added for lawns with higher disease risk, history of issues, or customers simply wanting protection against most common fungal diseases and the extensive damage they can cause.
