Step 1	March-April is the crabgrass pre-emergent treatment, and a balanced slow release fertilizer application.
Step 2	As the weather continues to warm up, we make a visit to clear out any broadleaf weeds present.  This blanket application is designed to control both mature weeds and those that have recently emerged and are still unnoticed.
Step 3 Bonus Step	In late  Spring , we apply a post-emergent treatment for crabgrass to ensure season long control of this ugly weed.  Your lawn also receives a complete balanced feeding with slow release fertilizer, and a spot treatment of any weeds found.  This is a BONUS STEP providing you started with the pre-emergant crabgrass
Step 4	June-Sept We apply a warm weather fertilizer with insect control that Strengthens and summer-proofs your lawn while combating a spectrum of harsh seasonal threats like insects, heat and drought.
Step 5	In the Fall, we provide a heavier feeding (still slow release) including micro-nutrients at a time when grass is shifting away from heavy top growth and toward root buildup.  Any weeds including Fall germinating weeds are cleared out at this time.  Also,  we will start to CORE-AERATE at this time if you requested this highly beneficial service in your package.
Step 6	The final application is also the heaviest feeding of the season.  It is carefully timed to occur around the last mowing.  This feeding is aimed directly at maximizing benefits to the root system.  Benefits include green color later into Fall with no additional mowing needed and a stronger healthier root system.  Stored nutrients also provide a quicker greenup in the Spring.
