This March we are applying a spring fertilization to help lawns begin the green up process, a weed treatment, and a PH adjustment.

Lawn care and fertilizer in Jacksonville, FL.

This month we are applying a fertilizer to help your lawn recover from the freeze and begin the green up process heading into spring.  We are also targeting spring annual weeds such as carrot weed, germanium, and thistle, and applying iron sulfate to help with color and PH.

Dormancy is a natural part of the turf life cycle in North Florida. Turf growth slows down, and its capacity to absorb nutrients decreases as temperatures cool down. This causes the turf to gradually turn brown and remain in that state until warmer spring temperatures stimulate active growth once again. While some cultivars of St. Augustine grass retain their green color for a longer period prior to winter and are the first to regain their green color in spring, Zoysia, Bermuda, and other varieties of St. Augustine grass (such as Pro-Vista, dwarf species, and slower-growing cultivars) tend to have an extended dormant period. All warm-season turf varieties resume active growth when daytime temperatures reach 80 degrees, and nighttime temperatures consistently stay above 60 degrees.

Generally, expect to water each zone for 45 minutes once each week from October thru March.  Watering for a longer duration (45 minutes – 1 hour, rather than 20-30 minutes per zone) will encourage deeper root growth. Mowing at 4 inches will also encourage a deeper root system. If anything unexpected happens we are always here to help you troubleshoot any issues that may arise.  Good cultural practices are going to prevent many common problems from occurring in your lawn.  During a drought or freeze, reduce traffic from people, pets, and mowers. Hand water hot spots as identified by thin, crunchy, or folded grass blades.
