Lawn Care

BECAUSE LIFE IS BETTER ON YOUR LAWN

Your lawn has a significant impact on the overall appearance of your property. If it seems to have lost its luscious demeanor and is in need of revival, Higher Ground Lawn Care & Lighting is here to help.

Why should I choose Higher Ground Lawn Care & Lighting?

We only use the highest quality of products for your lawn. To get into the details, we spray golf resort-quality liquid foliar organic blended fertilizers. We also use the best herbicides and pre-emergents in the industry for effective weed control. We call it The Organic Hybrid Program.

We ensure that your lawn is going to be naturally healthy, dense, and lush. We give it a well-rounded blend of liquid foliar nutritional organic fertilizers that stimulate root development and allow your grass to be its own best defense against disease and weeds.

We provide an annual lawn care program to keep your lawn healthy and fresh all year round. Take a look below to see!

Round 1: Pre-Emergent- January 1st to February 15th

To start out the year on Round 1 we apply our 1st of 3 pre-emergents of the season to prevent spring/summer weeds. We do spot treat existing weeds at this time but they are very slow to die as temperatures are too cool to get quick great results.

Our Landscaped Bed & Ornamental (LNO) first treatment starts during this time frame.

Round 2: Organic Fertilizer - Feb 15th to March 31st

In Round 2 we begin by using an amazing organic granular fertilizer that benefits your soil biology which in turn feeds and creates great roots and pushes healthy turf top growth. Spot treatment of weeds as needed.

*Add-on services for Annual Fire Ant control are started during this time frame

Round 3: Pre-Emergent - April 1st to May 14th

In Round 3 we are applying our 2nd pre-emergent of the season for our core annual program. This is further preventing broadleaf and crabgrass from germinating and giving us stronger residual control throughout the summer until we apply your last pre-emergent of the season for fall/winter. Spot treatment of weeds as needed.

*Add-on services for LNO Round 2 of 3, Turf Disease Prevention Treatments and Organic Granular Topdressings during this time frame

Round 4: Organic Fertilizer - May 15th to June 30th

In Round 4 we are applying another granular organic fertilizer. Spot treatment of weeds as needed.

*For those who have opted for Grubworm and Flea/Tick treatments these are applied during this time.

Round 5: Spot Treatment - July 1st to Aug. 14th

During Round 5 which is the hottest time of our season, we have put in so much already in our R1-R4 building blocks that we are primarily doing post-emergent weed control applications to keep the lawn looking clean and weed-free. We are also on the lookout for any other potential disease, drought stress, or pest issues such as Chinch bugs or Armyworms that we will inform you about while the turf is under the most environmental stress it will have all season.

Quick Tip! Have the grass really thick which will help with drought summer heat stress and retain more moisture in the soil below!!

*For those who have opted for preventative Chinch Bug this is applied at this time.

Round 6: Pre-M/ Liquid Organics - Aug. 15th to Sept. 30th

In our Final Round, Round 6 we are coming off the peak of summer and we are being proactive for the upcoming season of fall/winter weeds with a pre-emergent. This is the final treatment of the season before the lawn goes into dormancy. Spot treatment of weeds as needed.

*Add-on services for Turf Disease Prevention and the Final LNO treatments are applied.
