Posted under GARDENING, Lawn Care on Jul 30, 2007
Are you a homeowner in need of help to develop a thick, green lawn that will combat weeds, insects, and diseases? Scotts Lawn Care has come up with an easy to follow Annual Lawn Care Program to answer just that problem.
Offering you with fine tips on regular lawn feedings, the Scotts Lawn Care program takes the guesswork out of lawn and garden care.
Step 1: Scotts Lawn Care Crabgrass Preventer Plus Fertilizer
Scotts Lawn Care provides you with lawn weed and feed as your first step to a rich, green, and weed free lawn.
Available in 14.05 lbs bag (5,000 sq. ft.) and 42.18 lbs bag (15,000 sq. ft.), the Scotts Lawn Care Pro Step 1 provides selective control of sprouting weeds with feeding for a deep, rich greening that lasts up to 2 months.
As an all-in-one particle, each bag contains essential nutrients and a crabgrass prevention ingredient for a stronger, greener lawn with season long pre and early post emergent control of crabgrass and other grassy weeds.
It also has a patented time release formula, allowing increment amounts of the feed to be released gradually over a certain period of time. Because of that, the Scotts Lawn Care Pro Step 1 is guaranteed to work for the roots up and definitely won’t cause root-burning.
The people at Scotts recommend that the feed should be applied in early spring between February and April, before the fourth mowing or before dandelions reach the puffball stage.
Performance of this Scotts Lawn Care produce won’t be affected by rain, snow, or freezing weather.
Step 2: Scotts Lawn Care Weed Control Plus Fertilizer
The next step to the Scotts Lawn Care program is application of weed control plus fertilizer.
A bag of this Scotts product contain enough weed control chemicals that provides selective control for dandelions and most broadleaf weeds:
aster, bindweed, bittercress, black medic, buckhorn, bull thistle, burclover, buttonweed, carpetweed, catsear (coast dandelion), chickweed, chicory, cinquefoil, hop clover, red clover, white clover, cudweed, curly dock, English daisy, evening primrose, filaree, fleabane, ground ivy, hawkweed, healall, henbit, horseweed, knotweed (seedling), lambsquarters, lespedeza (seedling), lippia (matchweed), mallow, moneywort, morning glory, mustard, pennywort, pepperweed, pigweed, plantain, prickly lettuce, puncturevine, purslane, pussytoes, ragweed, red sorrel, scarlet pimpernel, shadflower (whitlowort), shepherd’s puse, smartweed, sow thistle, stitchwort, threeseeded mercury, thyme leaved sandwort, vetch, wild carrot, yarrow, and yellow rocket.
When applying the Scotts Lawn Care Pro Step 2, use a Scotts spreader set to the indicated setting on the label. Make sure to apply to moist foliage since moisture helps particles adhere to weed leaves for effective control.
Step 3: Scotts Lawn Care Insect Control with Fertilizer
Scotts Lawn Care Pro Step 3 controls all major turfgrass insect problems. And along with its fertilizer, it also helps keep the soil in your lawn healthy for grass to grown in.
Each bag of fertilizer contains enough nutrients that released slowly into the soil to ensure even greening without rapid, extreme growth.
The Scotts Lawn Care Insect Control keeps awy ants, army worms, Bermuda grass mites, billbugs, chiggers, chinch buggs, clover mites, crickets, cutworms, earwigs, fleas, flea beetles (in dichondra), leafhoppers, mole crickets, sod webworms (lawn moth larvae), and vegetable weevil (in dichondra).
