What We Did Today: Round #2

To Your Lawn

  1. Warm Season lawns (Bermuda and/or Zoysia Turf) received a liquid application which consisted of the second application of Pre-emergent and a broadcast post-emergent to control any broadleaf weeds that may have germinated. A liquid fertilizer was also applied that contains the latest in polymeric science and acts as a nutrient delivery system for the plant. This product allows us to provide the proper nutrients throughout the year and it Harnesses these nutrients holding them to be readily available as the plant requires their use. This allows the plant to use less water and be healthier. There is also a shot of quick release nitrogen to aid the warm season turf to come out of dormancy. Products will work best if watered in within 10-14 days.
  2. Cool Season lawns (Fescue) received a liquid application which consisted of the second application of Pre-emergent and a broadcast post-emergent to control any broadleaf weeds that may have germinated.

What you need to do until our next visit

  1. According to the Georgia Department of Natural Resources, Environmental Protection Division, even though a level four drought response has been put into effect in the northern third of the state, homeowners are allowed to water their lawn the day of a chemical application by a professional. Please check with your local government, as they may be implemented additional restrictions.
  2. If you have Bermuda, you will need to lower your turf. This basically means that you need to take the dormant turf that is presently there and mow it off as low as your mower will allow you. If you have Zoysia turf, you will also need to lower your turf but take caution in not getting all the way down to the crown of the plant.
  3. If you have Fescue, you will want to raise the deck on your mower to mow no lower than 3 inches and it is fine to start getting the Fescue up to a height of 3-4 inches getting ready for the summer heat.
