True Stories from Our Customers' Landscaping Experiences

I contacted Lehigh Landscaping in the Fall regarding the poor condition of my front yard. There was more bare soil than grass. I met with Zac who put together a plan including the installation of 2" of screened topsoil, starter fertilization, and premium grass seed. That work was completed in October and I am pleased to say that after daily watering for over two weeks, I now have a beautiful green lawn. I will be sure to contact Lehigh again in the future with any lawn issues.

Fertilization Steps

Pre-emergent for Weeds: Pre-emergent herbicides work to prevent weeds before they even have a chance to germinate, by creating a barrier over the soil that coats the seeds of the weeds. This then prevents them from growing shoots that root into the ground and crowd out the grass.

Weed and Feed: Lehigh Lawns and Landscaping uses a weed deterrent that targets crabgrass and dandelions. These types of weeds when left untreated can spread their spores through the air and into your yard. Crabgrass looks like a plant version of a crab with its legs and claws, and it can spread quickly to all parts of your lawn. The feeding should be a targeted fertilizer for your specific grass type to encourage strong root production and a healthy leaf.

Grub Control: Grubs or June beetles lay their eggs under the grass in early summer and when the larvae hatch, they eat the tender new roots of the grass for food, causing the grass to die. When this happens, you can lift the grass like a carpet since all of the roots have been chewed away.

Early Summer Fertilizer: An application of organic fertilizer in the early summer season can help to nourish your grass all through the hot summer days. It also encourages drought resistance for your lawn in the heat of summer.

Early Fall Fertilizer: The early fall application of fertilizer helps to revive the weather-stricken grass for a lush fall return of autumn grass.

Late Fall Fertilizer: Late fall fertilizer provides the nutrients for your lawn to use during the dormant winter months. This critical winterization can mean that your grass comes back in the spring to be lush, green, and vibrant.

If fertilizer applications seem too complex and frustrating, then you should consult a trained landscape expert like Lehigh Lawns and Landscaping. When you want a beautiful lawn but don’t want to spend hours trying to figure out the right fertilizer, the ideal application time, and exactly how much to apply, then seeking help can be just what you need to bring out the beauty in your Poughquag, NY, property.
