LAWN FERTILIZATION

Annual Lawn Fertilization and Weed Control in Cary

If frequent watering simply isn’t cutting it for your yard in Cary, you may want to consider the help of a professional lawn fertilization service. At Lawn Doctor of Cary-Apex, we offer customized lawn fertilization plans for homes in Cary, Chapel Hill, Wake Forest, Durham, Apex, Pittsboro, Sanford, and the neighboring communities. With our specialized fertilizer formula and expert application methods, you can expect to experience thicker, healthier grass growth that will become the envy of your neighbors.

About Our Lawn Fertilization Services in Cary

Fertilization is a crucial aspect of lawn care for several reasons. First of all, your grass requires specific nutrients in order for healthy growth to occur. Fertilizer not only encourages healthy growth but also allows your grass to become more resistant to fungus and diseases, reducing the likelihood that you’ll notice uneven patches or fading. Fertilizer also contains nitrogen, which is responsible for green growth and helps you achieve the healthy, lush look that you’re going for.

Our specially formulated fertilizer provides a slow, steady release of nutrients to ensure that your grass is getting just what it needs for optimal growth. And since we work with professional equipment and have plenty of experience applying fertilizer, you can be confident that we’ll provide an even application that won’t leave your grass looking uneven or sloppy.

An imprecise application can even have negative effects that aren’t related to aesthetics. Too much fertilizer often results in thatch-build up, creating problems with pest control. It can also produce fertilizer runoff, leading to algae overgrowth and damaging local wildlife. Our professional techniques at Lawn Doctor of Cary-Apex avoid these problems so that your yard can experience the many benefits of fertilizer. We even offer natural fertilizer to help your lawn thrive without negatively impacting the environment.

Ongoing Lawn Fertilization Programs in Cary

With our ongoing lawn fertilization programs at Lawn Doctor of Cary-Apex, you can enjoy greener, healthier grass all year long. We’ll design a customized fertilization program for your yard that takes into account its grass type, unique specifications, and the upcoming weather conditions. While the number of treatments our customers require varies widely, a typical yard in the Cary area will usually need six to eight applications of fertilizer per year for optimal results.

Lawn Aeration

Lawn Aeration in the Cary Area

Your lawn is a hub of activity. From kids playing to pets running and guests hanging out, it’s where you relax and have fun. But all that foot traffic is likely leading to soil compaction and thatch build-up, which can compress and suffocate roots. Luckily, you don’t have to put a stop to all the backyard fun. Just call in the aeration experts at Lawn Doctor of Cary-Apex. We know how to minimize compaction and thatch build-up so your lawn can breathe easy again.

How Can Aeration Help My Lawn?

When it comes to lawn aeration in the Cary area, there are two approaches to take. The first involves spikes on a roller that perforate your lawn. The second – which is longer lasting and produces better results – is core aeration. With this method, an aeration machine cores out plugs of grass, thatch, and soil. This helps break down compaction and thatch so that water, nutrients, sunlight, and air can penetrate the soil and reach the root zone. This leads to:

• Stronger and deeper growing roots

• More vigorous growth

• A friendlier environment for beneficial microorganisms

• A thicker, more luscious yard that looks and feels great

How Do I Tell if My Lawn Needs Aeration?

You don’t need to be a lawn care expert in Cary or Apex to spot the need for aeration. Simply look for standing puddles that run-off, rather than getting absorbed and thinning or bald spots in your lawn. Likewise, if you park vehicles in your yard or have clay soils, your lawn is a good candidate for compaction. Another way to check for soil compaction is with the screwdriver test. Just take a screwdriver and try to stick it into the ground. If it’s a challenge to get it in, it’s likely due to soil compaction.

When Are the Best Times to Aerate?

As local aeration experts, Lawn Doctor of Cary-Apex knows there’s a right and wrong time to aerate. Aerate at the wrong time and you could wind up damaging your turf. This is because the holes left behind by the aeration process won’t fill in quickly with new grass, leaving them susceptible to weeds, insects, and disease. Aerate at the right time, however, and you can achieve gorgeous results. For warm-season grasses, that means later in the spring; for cool-season grasses, the best times to aerate are in the fall and early spring.

Lawn Aeration from Lawn Doctor of Cary-Apex

Don’t fight with an expensive or unwieldy lawn aeration machine on your day off. Instead, leave it to the experts at Lawn Doctor of Cary-Apex. Simply call us today at 919.362.1808 to schedule your free, no-obligation consultation. We provide lawn aeration services to customers in Cary, Chapel Hill, Wake Forest, Durham, and Apex.

Weed Control

Lawn Weed Control Services from Lawn Doctor of Cary

Weeds are more than just unsightly – they can be detrimental to the health of your lawn. Weeds drain your lawn of its nutrients, and eradicating them is necessary so your lawn can remain healthy, lush, and green. Lawn Doctor of Carry offers lawn weed control to keep your lawn not only looking lush but to keep it healthy and thriving as well.

If your lawn is suffering from any type of unwanted plant, then you need our lawn weed control services. Weeds are able to grow anywhere on your property that has dirt, so you may find that you need lawn weed control in your garden or even a walkway or path on your property. We have the skills, experience, and equipment to ensure weeds are eliminated from any place they rear their ugly heads.

Types of Weeds Treated by Our Lawn Control Services

For the most part, weeds show up in two forms – broadleaf weeds and grassy weeds. Lawn weed control services from Lawn Doctor of Cary can eradicate and/or prevent both from appearing on your property. Broadleaf weeds are known for their wider leaves and include plants like dandelion, chickweed, purslane, and clover. Often, the flower looks less unsightly, but lawn weed control services are still needed to keep the weeds from overrunning the grass and ruining your lawn.

Grassy weeds, like crabgrass, have the advantage of being able to grow in the same conditions as your grass. Our lawn weed control services are needed for dealing with grassy weeds because the lawn treatments you use to keep your grass looking lush and vibrant could be what’s helping your grassy weeds to grow. We have the experience and proper lawn weed control products to eliminate these weeds without damaging your grass.

Local Lawn Weed Control Services

Understanding what types of weeds are growing in your lawn is essential to ensuring the right treatments are put in place. At Lawn Doctor of Cary, we are local lawn care experts. We are a locally owned business and our team lives in the Cary-Apex area. We understand how the local weather and ground conditions affect your lawn and the weeds growing there.

If you live in Apex, Chapel Hill, Holly Springs, Durham, Wake Forest, or Cary, we can help you eliminate weeds in your lawn and prevent new weeds from taking root. You can have the lush, green lawn you’ve always wanted when you call Lawn Doctor of Cary for lawn weed control services.

Power Seeding

Lawn Seeding in the Cary Area

There’s a secret behind attaining a lush, green lawn. Lawn care companies know it, but not all homeowners do. What is it? Lawn seeding. As part of an overall care plan, lawn seeding can keep your lawn healthy and beautiful. And at Lawn Doctor of Cary-Apex, we provide the most effective approach by combining seeding with aeration. It’s how we can open up your soil and re-invigorate your lawn.

Why Professional Power Seeding Services?

Building turf density is the end game when it comes to power seeding. This not only helps your lawn look better, but also boosts its natural resistance to weeds and insects in the process. But not every power seeding service is created equal. At Lawn Doctor of Cary-Apex, we rely on our proprietary, state-of-the-art Turf Tamer® lawn seeding equipment to cultivate the soil first, ensuring good seed-to-soil contact. As a result, more seeds can germinate and develop into new growth in your lawn.

Our Turf Tamer equipment was designed especially to maximize lawn seeding results. In fact, its ground-metered technology promotes aeration while also distributing the exact right amount of seed into your soil for optimal plant development. Likewise, the reciprocating action ensures your turf isn’t damaged in the process.

At Lawn Doctor of Cary-Apex, we recommend seeding in the fall. That way, new grass seed won’t have to endure scorching summer heat or frigid winter temperatures during initial development. Rather, the fall season provides a good mix of warm days, cool nights, and rainfall for high germination rates. In addition, new seeds won’t have to compete with aggressive broadleaf weeds, like dandelions and clover.

Why Lawn Doctor of Cary-Apex for Professional Lawn Seeding?

Because we make it easy to achieve the lawn of your dreams. We don’t simply scatter grass seed into your lawn. Rather, we take the time to perform a thorough lawn evaluation. Then, we tailor a custom plan that delivers exactly what your lawn needs so it can reach its fullest potential. In the end, you’ll achieve a lawn you can truly love.

Ready to take your lawn to the next level with professional seeding services? Call the Lawn Doctor of Cary-Apex today at 919.362.1808 for your free lawn evaluation. Our lawn seeding services are available for homeowners in Cary, as well as those in the neighboring communities of Chapel Hill, Wake Forest, Durham, and Apex, NC.
