In most areas of Utah and throughout the Intermountain West, March to mid-April is the ideal time to begin the steps to a beautiful lawn.

An application of our early spring fertilizer is step one to obtaining a beautiful weed-free lawn. The pre-emergent fertilizer provides a weed barrier, killing weeds as they germinate from the seeds that have lain dormant in your lawn all winter. If they are eliminated now, they won’t become a problem later this spring and summer.

Early May is the ideal time to apply step two in our lawn care program (approximately 4-6 weeks following your first application).

Our step 2 Weed & Feed will kill dandelions and other broadleaf weeds appearing in your lawn while giving it a much-needed application of iron.

Around the middle of June to the end of July is the best time to apply the third step in our lawn care program. This is one of the most important applications for your lawn. Applying Spring & Summer Lawn Food slow-release fertilizer during the hot weather will help your lawn maintain a darker green color even under the stress of the summer months.

Because your lawn is working hard in the heat, it needs a slow, long-feeding fertilizer that is formulated locally for our unique soils and conditions.

Labor Day until late October is the time to apply the final applications of our four step lawn care program. Our Fall & Winter Lawn Food is the final step of the growing season. This is the most important lawn feeding of the year. Fertilizing in the fall produces extra greening and little top growth. Most of the lawn’s energy, supplied by the fertilizer, is stored in the roots to be utilized over the winter and provide next year’s early spring green-up power. Your lawn’s root system will remain active until the ground freezes, giving it time to recover from the summer heat in the now cooler soil.
