TruGreen typically performs fertilization services twice a year, once in the spring and once in the fall. These applications are strategically timed to provide the necessary nutrients to your lawn at key points in the growing season.
The first application is done in the spring, usually around March or April, depending on your specific location and climate. This is a critical time for your lawn as it emerges from winter dormancy and begins actively growing again. The spring fertilization helps to kickstart the growth and provide the necessary nutrients for a healthy and vibrant lawn throughout the season.
The second application takes place in the fall, usually around September or October. This is another important time for your lawn as it prepares for the winter months ahead. The fall fertilization helps to strengthen the roots, promote deep root growth, and store essential nutrients that will be used during the dormant winter period. It also helps to improve the overall health and resilience of the lawn, making it better able to withstand the harsh conditions of winter and bounce back stronger in the spring.
In addition to the fertilization visits, TruGreen also offers foliar and bark protections for insect and disease control. These visits are typically scheduled every 4-6 weeks, based on the activity of pests and diseases in your area. The timing may vary depending on factors such as weather conditions and the specific needs of your lawn.
By combining the fertilization visits with the foliar and bark protections, TruGreen aims to provide comprehensive care for your lawn throughout the year. This integrated approach helps to address both the nutritional needs of the grass and any potential threats from pests and diseases.
During my years as a gardening and landscaping expert, I have witnessed the positive effects of regular fertilization on lawns. The timing of the applications is crucial to ensure that the grass receives the nutrients it needs at the right time. Spring fertilization helps to boost growth and establish a strong foundation for the season, while fall fertilization prepares the lawn for winter and promotes healthy root development.
I have also seen the benefits of combining fertilization with pest and disease control. By addressing these issues together, we can create a healthier and more resilient lawn. It’s important to monitor the activity of pests and diseases and adjust the timing of the visits accordingly. TruGreen’s approach of spacing out the visits every 4-6 weeks allows for effective monitoring and treatment, ensuring that your lawn remains in good health throughout the year.
