(Information and notes are subject to change, because this is written specifically for this visit.)
- Today’s visit contains pre-emergent weed control (Liquid), season-long grub control (Liquid), & season-long fertilizer (Dry) for extended turf feeding of key nutrients.
- Some turf discoloration may occur, like a temporary sunburn, this is normal and turf color will recover with mowing of new growth.
- Wait until the treatment has dried for light outdoor activity. This spray dries to the touch in ~1-2hrs, but limit exposure until watered in and dried. Once watered in & dried, all normal outdoor activity can resume, including mowing.
- Your next official visit will be during turf dormancy, however, you have on-call weed insurance, so call the WEED HOTLINE (405) 707-3054 anytime to report weeds or lawn problems (no charge).
- You get 1 free Q/A consultation visit/yr, so use it. Call John (owner) if you have questions or issues and let’s fix it.
- To the extent that this treatment is activated correctly, will determine its effectiveness.
Watering Instructions: (Based on “Rotating” sprinklers 20 to 40 min = approx. 1/2” of water. Reduce to half that for “stationary” or “mister-type” sprinklers, use rain gauge to confirm exact amount)
To activate this treatment correctly:
- WAIT ~24hrs. before watering to allow the weed killer to stick & kill weeds (4hr rain fast warranty).
- THEN water-in ASAP to activate the fertilizer, grub control & pre-emergent, wait no longer than 48hour, the sooner the better.
- Activation requires 1/2" of water per area with sprinklers or rainfall. (See above calibration).
- Regular watering thereafter. CLICKHERE to see our watering guide to water correctly throughout the year.
Mowing Instructions:
To activate this treatment correctly: Avoid mowing until after watering-in this treatment and soil dries. Always use a sharp blade. Mow often enough to avoid excessive clippings of more than 1/3 of grass blade length. As Winter approaches, do not reduce cut height, but rather allow a dense turf canopy to protect the grass roots during winter. Any lawn scalping beyond this point may compromise this treatment so do not scalp & bag after this treatment has been made.
Insects controlled by this treatment include:
Armyworms
Cutworms
Sod Webworms
*White Grubs (10 Species, including the May/June beetle)
European Crane Fly
Billbugs
Annual bluegrass weevil
Spittlebugs
Chinch bugs
Mole Crickets
Lawn Treatment Disclaimer
If your lawn is in a weakened/unhealthy condition, treatments may temporarily stun/damage your grass. A soil test should be taken to determine turf health. If you see signs that your lawn is responding negatively to any treatment, please contact us ASAP so we can do a soil test and place your lawn on “Sensitive status” which means we will use different treatment methods until the problem is corrected.
