Turf Treatment: Preventative Fall Lawn Maintenance

Utilizing the Kohler Lawn & Outdoor turf treatment program will help assist you in the process of maintaining a beautiful, lush lawn.  With Fall fast-approaching, the cooler temps and rainfall make conditions ideal in preparing your lawn for next Spring.  

 

During the Fall season, lawns are busy absorbing nutrients, energy, and moisture to prepare for the harsh winter conditions that the Kansas City Metro is known for.  Your prep work during the Fall season will help your lawn grow to be healthy and lush in the Spring.

 

With over 25 years’ experience in the field, Kohler Lawn & Outdoor’s turf treatment program is a multi-step, multi-application process that is proven to help keep your lawn healthy.  During the months between June and November, grub control is applied to prevent root damage to the lawn.  Deep grass roots prevent nutrients and moisture from leeching into the nearby ground, and keep your top soil as a healthy foundation for your lawn.  Broadleaf weed control with balanced rate of fertilizer is also applied to help keep those tough aggressive weeds from taking over your lawn.

 

Towards the end of Fall, a heavy rate of nitrogen fertilizer is applied to promote rapid growth and the signature healthy green color of any healthy lawn.  Optional fungus treatments may be necessary (not included in the turf treatment program) to treat or prevent fungus growth that damages your lawn.

 

A service to drive home a healthy lawn is Aerating & Seeding in the fall.  This a proven method to ensure a fuller lawn in the coming Spring season. A full, healthy lawn does not give space for weeds to grow.  When your soil becomes compacted, the amount of nutrients your lawn needs is greatly diminished, rendering bare spots on the ground.  If you notice bare spots, your lawn will be susceptible to weeds.   Aeration breaks up compacted soil allowing water, air, and nutrients to penetrate the ground and becomes easily accessed by grass roots. Our list for this service is growing so if you’d like this service, call us to get scheduled. We will start aerate and seed services in September!
