FALL
TREE AND SHRUB
|
|
At
this time, nutrients go toward root development more than any
other time. Where there's roots, green grass follows. Perennial
cool-season grasses (your lawn) have the best chance to overcome
thin areas with two to three good feedings in the fall. Next spring
when your lawn comes out of dormancy, it will build more
root expansion and top growth off the roots that have expanded
in the fall. The spring and fall is when Bluegrass, Fine-Fescue
and Ryegrass get the biggest jump-start in competing with summer
/ weed grasses. When your lawn first comes out of dormancy, your
Round 1 treatment may be anywhere from 6 - 8 weeks away, so fall
treatments, especially the last one, really could be called a
springerizer. Many people that took this for the first time in
past years made a point to tell us how it had made a noticeable
difference with their early-spring color and rooting. |
|
STANDARD
Our
standard fertilizer is always slow release, including Iron
and micro-nutrients. The Round 6 treatment offers three
times the amount of potassium normally applied, with 75%
slow release. This helps with root expansion and spring
green-up. |
BALANCE
UPGRADE
We
offer this all season, and it can make the biggest difference
in the fall. Lower Nitrogen, higher Potassium, and up to
100% slow release treats lawns to the best possible synthetic
elements. We recommend this product if you are renovating,
seeding, trying to thicken your existing grass,
or trying to grow grass under trees. It is second best only
to organic fertilizer. This is strongly recommended and
a first choice for round 5 if renovating or seeding
the lawn. |
|
ORGANIC
UPGRADE
We
offer this all season, and it can make the biggest difference
in the fall. Soil is more important to the overall
health of your lawn than any other variable. The
fall is one of the best times to incorporate organic fertilizers
because it is more easily worked into the soil with core
aeration. |
By
accelerating and stimulating microbial life (the life
blood of rich soil), you can reduce thatch, and insure
better long-term health. Getting your soil
closer to the optimum state will make a lasting difference. |

The
ability to take in nutrients efficiently depends on many factors,
including soil composition. Most lawns need these, and most
people don't realize the difference they can make.
SOIL
TEST |
We
will take between 4-8 samples, mix and have tested in
lab for pH, micro-nutrient levels and more. |
|
|
|
Soil
pH is very important to all plants. Lawns like it between 6.5
and 7.5. Lime or Sulfer is added to correct or maintain a proper
soil pH. We apply at an amending rate (30-50 pounds per thousand
square feet). Coupled with a core aeration, you will maximize
the impact on your lawn. Lime especially helps lawns that are
shady, have a lot of pine plants, or high amounts of leaves
or rooting plant material. Color and health are enhanced by
maintaining the proper pH. We can start with a soil test and
let you know from there what will help most.
|
Gypsum
loosens hard-packed soils, increases nutrient availability from
fertilizer treatments making soil more receptive, and helps
plants get a better chance to expand their roots. It also gives
your lawn vital nutrients like Calcium. If you have clay, this
treatment will really help. We suggest you apply this after
core aeration to enhance the ability of getting it into the
soil. We apply at an amending rate (30-50 pounds per thousand
square feet). Softening the soil will help lawns breath and
root, making any lawn more thick and healthy.

Clump
of Tall Fescue
|
Tall
Fescue is the taller, wide clumpy grass that is an eyesore in
a finer grassed lawn. It is often mistaken for Crab Grass or
Quack Grass by the homeowner. Tall Fescue is a perennial grass,
which means it comes back every year and will spread out if
not controlled. A product for this problem has become available,
and we here at Aaron's are happy to provide the service.
We
will spot treat the problem areas. Follow-up maintenance on
your part will be necessary to continue to provide the optimal
conditions needed for the best control results. A repeat application
may be necessary after 60 days, at which point we can re-evaluate
at your request. Depending on the amount of Tall Fescue killed
out, an aeration and overseeding may be necessary to help thicken
and fill in the areas.

Lawns
sometimes need some areas or spots killed to remove undesirable
plants that will not die with selective weed control (kills
the weeds not the grass) or be mechanically removed. This
can include starting a lawn over, or because of perennial
grassy weeds like Quack or Zoysia for example. In these
situations, we use a professional vegetation killer that
will allow reseeding within just a few days. This service
is usually done in late summer so seeding can be done
soon after. |

We suggest over-seeding or slit seeding a lawn if it
is thin or fatigued after years of use, after
fungus and / or insect damage has occurred,
or is it needs some help getting started. We only use
high quality seed with the right mixture for shady and
sunny areas. This seed is more resistant
to insects, disease, acidic soil, and other common problems
then the grass seed of yesturday. The best
time is in the fall when temperatures and rain are more
favorable for germination.
Over-seeding-This
is usually done after core aeration or raking and followed
with a starter fertilizer. It will thicken and strengthen
your existing lawn by giving it diversity to fill in
where your existing lawn is having problems.
Slit
Seeding-We use a machine that slits the ground
with blades while simultaneously dropping the seed into
the slits. Planting the seed at exactly the right depth
gives a very high rate of germination.

Core
Aeration-should be dont yearly, or at least every
1-2 years. Sodded lawns need tobe done yearly if not both
spring and fall to establish the root system and break
down thatch. This will improve air exchange between soil
and atmosphere, enhance water intake, improve fertilizer
use, make turfgrass more resistant to fungus and disease,
stimulate turfgrass rooting, enhance heat and drought
resistance, and speed up thatch breakdown. |
|
|
If
nothing else is done to your yard this year, aeration
is one of the most beneficial things for your lawn's optimum
health. We usually recommend core aeration every year. |
|
Thatch
Build Up? |
|
Why
Core Aerate? |
|
Although
a thin layer of thatch is beneficial, it should
not exceed 1/2 inch. Excess thatch blocks out air,
light and water from reaching the root zones. This
problem is typical of sodded lawns and helps cause
fungus. |
Core aeration usually reduces thatch accumulation
to healthy levels. |
|
|
In
most homes, the natural soil has been seriously disturbed
by the building process. Fertile topsoil may have been
removed or buried during excavation of the basement or
footings, leaving subsoil that is more compact, higher
in clay content and less desirable for healthy lawn growth.
These lawns need aeration to improve the depth and extent
of turf grass rooting and improve fertilizer and water
use. Intensely used lawns are exposed to stress from traffic
injury. Walking, playing, and mowing are forms of traffic
that compact soil particles and reduce large air spaces
where roots are ready to grow. |
WILL
AERATION MAKE A DIFFERENCE?
To
get a beautiful garden, you must till the soil. Aeration
is how you till your lawn. Many people don't think they
need aeration until they see their lawn is looking thin,
or having other problems. A consistent, year-after-year
aeration will make the difference in keeping a lawn beautiful.
Incorporate,
Renovate, and Rejuvenate.
When
you open up your lawn from aeration don't miss a great
opportunity to incorporate seed, humus, organic material,
regulate pH, soften soil.
While aerations benefits are great, you can maximize the
impact by incorporating needed materials targeting problems
that need to be solved to better the lawn for years (to

Your
lawn and landscape are large investments. A big part of
that investment is keeping your trees and shrubs full
of life for years to come. Just like all things in nature,
your trees and shrubs have a constant struggle fending
off insects and disease, and trying to find sufficient
nutrients.
Trees
and shrubs needs regular nourishment to keep them growing
strong roots, bodies and foliage. With insects and disease
constantly attacking them, it takes regular care from
trained professionals to keep these pests under control.
Our tree specialists apply the correct products, using
proven procedures on a regularly-scheduled basis. |
FERTILIZER INJECTION
We
inject special balanced fertilizer at the drip
line of the trees and / or shrubs. This application
will help the plants by giving them extra energy
for the transition into dormancy, and the preparation
for regeneration next year
|
DORMANT OIL
We
apply a horticultural oil that controls scale
and other insects, suffocating any pest wintering
in your trees waiting for their chance next year.
This application is a good start for an effective
insect-control program.

PROFESSIONAL MOWING
A lot of services
out there cut every week, whether you need it or not.
We come out in summer conditions when the grass is the
right height to cut. We also sharpen our blades daily,
to ensure a beautiful cut, raising and lowering them
based on heat and stress. We also spray our deck between
cuts to stop the transfer of fungus. If you want to
maximize your green without the hassle, call us.
Cracking and
discoloration can be the end of that nice looking sidewalk.
We can edge your sidewalk, making a clean, even cut,
and helping you keep that freshly-poured look even longer.
Planting
trees and shrubs is a job that must be done right
the first time, to insure the health of the plant
for life. With our planting process, you can be
assured of the right materials and workmanship
to establish your trees and shrubs. We stake your
trees for no extra charge. |
DETHATCHING
Like the thatch roof on a tropical
hut, thatch stops water and fertilizer from reaching
the soil. A lawn with a heavy thatch build-up
feels spongy when you walk on it and can help
promote fungus. We can remove this layer to a
healthy lawn level .
|
MULCHING BEDS PREPARED

used for years of trouble-free enjoyment. We offer
many types to enhance the look you want. Cedar,
Cypress, Hardwood, Stones, Lava Rock, are available
