Our Services
We specialize exclusively in Weed Control & Fertilization. Discover how our 8-step program combines precise timing and expert treatments to manage weeds and keep your lawn healthy, lush, and vibrant throughout the year.
Annual Program: 8 Custom Applications Per Year
(1) Pre- & Post-Emergent
We apply a pre-emergent barrier early in the season to prevent crabgrass and other warm season weeds from germinating. This visit also includes post-emergent broadleaf control to reduce existing weeds and set the foundation for a clean start to Spring.
(2) Fertilize
We use a premium, slow-release fertilizer coated with Polyon technology. This temperature-controlled coating prevents nutrient release in cold soil, so fertilizer is not released too early or wasted. As soil temperatures warm, nutrients are released gradually when the grass can use them.
(3) Pre- & Post-Emergent
This treatment reinforces weed prevention while controlling early summer weeds that may have broken through. It helps prevent crabgrass, goosegrass, spurge, and other common Summer weeds while providing early suppression of annual sedges as temperatures rise.
(4) Fertilize & Spot-Treat
We apply another round of a custom blend, slow-release fertilizer, giving your lawn a steady supply of nutrients to maintain color, density, and resilience during the heat of Summer and into early Fall. We also spot-treat existing weeds as needed.
(5) Post-Emergent
Summer weeds can be aggressive, so this application focuses on controlling actively growing broadleaf and grassy weeds, helping keep your lawn uniform and weed-free.
(6) Pre- & Post-Emergent
This is the first step in our Fall weed prevention program. We apply a pre-emergent treatment to prevent cool season weeds such as poa annua, chickweed, and henbit while also controlling any existing weeds present in the lawn.
(7) Pre- & Post-Emergent
This second Fall application continues pre-emergent protection against cool season weeds while controlling any remaining existing weeds. Splitting Fall applications helps improve weed prevention through Winter and into early Spring.
(8) Limestone
A limestone application is applied to help balance soil pH. Soils in our area are naturally acidic, and correcting pH improves nutrient availability, fertilizer efficiency, and overall turf health heading into the next growing season.
Weed Control & Fertilization 101:
Warm vs. Cool Season Weeds in Mississippi
Weeds behave differently depending on the time of year and the type of grass you have. Understanding which weeds appear and when allows us to schedule applications that target the right problems at the right time, keeping your lawn healthy and minimizing stress on the grass.
Warm-Season
Warm-season weeds sprout in late Winter to early Spring and thrive in hot weather but usually die off naturally when it gets cool. Applying a pre-emergent before Spring is critical to prevent pesky weeds like crabgrass from germinating. By contrast, certain post-emergent treatments are usually unnecessary in late Summer, since weeds like crabgrass will die on their own.
Examples of warm-season weeds include:
- Crabgrass
- Goosegrass
- Dallisgrass
- Nutsedge
- Broomsedge
- Goosegrass
- Bahaiagrass
- Doveweed
- Virginia Buttonweed
- Spurge
Cool-Season
Cool-season weeds like Poa Annua germinate in late Summer to early Fall and grow through Winter and early Spring. Some, like Poa Annua, have become increasingly difficult to control, which is why we use a Dual Defense split pre-emergent approach. Two carefully timed applications provide the best protection, targeting emerging seeds and preventing new growth for a healthier, weed-managed lawn.
Examples of cool-season weeds include:
- Poa Annua (Annual Bluegrass)
- Chickweed
- Henbit
- Geranium
- Dandelion
- Clover
- Deadnettle
- Buttercup
- Wild Garlic/Onion
Understanding Pre- & Post-Emergent Treatments
Think you can control weeds by pulling them? Thing Again!
Fun Fact: 1 square foot of soil just 6" deep can contain up to 13,000 seeds of weeds.
Not all weeds are created equal, and controlling them starts with knowing the difference between pre- and post-emergent applications. Pre-emergent treatments are applied before weeds germinate. They form a protective barrier in the soil that prevents seeds from sprouting, which is especially important in the early Spring and late Summer when most weeds are starting their growth cycle. Post-emergent treatments, on the other hand, target weeds that are already growing. They allow us to eliminate visible weeds effectively without disturbing the surrounding grass. Using both in a season-long program ensures your lawn is protected from weeds before they even appear and treated if any break through.
Fertilizer, Limestone, and Soil pH:
Building a Strong Lawn
A healthy lawn isn’t just about cutting weeds — it’s about giving grass the nutrients it needs to THRIVE. We use a custom blend, slow-release fertilizer to provide a steady supply of nitrogen and other essential nutrients over several months. This encourages deep root growth, vibrant color, and long-term resilience.
Equally important is soil pH, which affects how well your lawn can absorb these nutrients. Mississippi soils often become slightly acidic over time, which can reduce fertilizer effectiveness. That’s why we include a limestone application in our program. Limestone raises soil pH to the optimal range, ensuring your grass can fully utilize the nutrients we apply and maintain strong, healthy growth year-round.
