Lawncare..in January????

Many of our customers are surprised to get a knock on their door, after Christmas. Why the heck would you still be fertilizing lawns? This fall was particularly challenging. After a very hot dry summer, lawns were in need of water. The fall continued with the pattern of lack of rain and lawns were in drought stress. Our winterizer treatment, which is started in late November through the end of the year, was pushed back due to snow cover. This year, more so than in years past, the winterizer treatment is important. This dormant feeding is designed to give lawns a boost of nutrients when they come out of dormancy. In April,when we start the season, lawns are already greening up and ready for their spring feeding and crabgrass preventative.
