Introducing Hydretain: A Leap Towards Water Conservation
In our continuous effort to support lush landscapes and conserve water, we've embraced Hydretain—a revolutionary technology initially developed for dust control that now significantly reduces watering needs. This innovation aligns with our mission to sustain plant health with minimal water usage, benefiting golf courses, sports turf, and residential gardens alike.
Nurturing Your Lawn
Proper care is vital for the development of your new lawn. We recommend maintaining soil moisture with light, frequent watering, and using starter fertilizer for seeded areas. To support your lawn throughout its growth, we advise following our comprehensive 5-Step Lawn Care Program, designed to nurture it from early spring through winter.
5-Step Lawn Care Program:
- Step 1 (March–April): Spring crabgrass control for a weed-free, vibrant start.
- Step 2 (April–June): Spring weed & feed to eradicate weeds while nourishing the lawn.
- Step 3 (June–August): Summer insect protection to safeguard against grubs and bolster lawn health.
- Step 4 (September–October): Fall fertilization with slow-release nitrogen for sustained growth.
- Step 5 (November–December): Winter feeding, essential for the forthcoming year, ideally paired with core aeration for optimal soil health.
Selecting the Perfect Seed
To complement our high-quality sod, we provide the Hybrid Power 90/10 Tall Fescue seed blend and the Green Velvet Sports Mixture for seeding. These selections equip your lawn with the best genetics for both beauty and strength.
