Fertilization and Weed Control Tulsa - Custom Programs for Healthy Lawns



tulsa weed controlA healthy, green lawn is the basis for any great Tulsa landscape. Having a vibrant, rich lawn sets the perfect stage for increasing curb appeal to the home and showcasing a beautiful outdoor living space. That’s why Tulsa lawn fertilization and weed control is so vital. Without the nutrients and care it needs, a lawn doesn’t have solid footing and can easily succumb to weeds, erosion, or heat.

So, even before spring comes, it’s good to have a fertilization and weed control program scheduled in order to have the healthiest lawn possible. What benefits come from having a fertilization and weed control program in place? 

Weeds are usually divided into two main categories: either broadleaf weeds or grassy weeds and can typically have either an annual or perennial life cycle. Thus, a custom pre-emergent and post-emergent weed control system is needed depending on the type of weed. Our Tulsa lawn care experts can develop a custom application schedule for your lawn to have the most effective weed control and giving you a hassle-free and weed-free lawn this spring.  

Having a Tulsa lawn care schedule ready will ensure you stop weeds from gaining the upper hand in your lawn. Especially during the spring, weed seeds are blown or carried in to your yard from surrounding areas. So, having a custom pre-emergent weed control system applied before these weeds develop will help to prevent them from taking over your lawn.

“Timing the application before germination of seeds is critical. For example, crabgrass is an annual grassy weed which germinates in the spring when soil temperatures reach 60F and above,” the University of Illinois Extension noted. “Thus, timely spring application is needed for crabgrass control products to be effective.”

This properly-timed weed control application is only part of an effective lawn care program. Keeping your lawn healthy is a vital aspect of weed control. Lawn fertilization treatments encourage a healthy, dense lawn and strong root system. Having a thick, vibrant turf will help to prevent weeds from getting the sunlight, water, and room they need to grow. Thus, a healthy, well-fertilized lawn will mean less weeds and overall less maintenance. Robust Tulsa lawns also reduce the chances of erosion, prevents areas from getting muddy, and in general is healthier for the environment.

Custom weed control and lawn fertilization programs in Tulsa can certainly bring a great deal of benefits to your landscape and your home overall.
