Lawn Fertilization Experts in St. Louis

Lawn Fertilization in St. Louis

Lawn fertilization is very important for grass health, as well as to prevent weeds. Without lawn fertilization, grass can become dull and wither away in the hot summer sun. With the proper nourishment, your lawn will be thick, healthy, and strong enough to out-compete unsightly weeds.

Fall and spring are the best seasons to carry out lawn fertilization. At Metro Lawn Sprinklers and Landscapes, we provide you with the best in lawn fertilization techniques to keep your yard fresh and vibrant through summer. As a full service lawn maintenance company, we can also provide complete pest and weed control for lawns. If you live in the St. Peters or St. Louis area, call us today and we can provide you with a quote for a variety of lawn maintenance solutions.

The Benefits of Lawn Fertilization

There are many advantages to lawn fertilization, which make it a popular service. Here are a few reasons that you should hire us to fertilize your lawn:

  • Reduces Weed Growth: Even though weeds can seem tough and resilient, healthy, thick grass has a natural resistance to weeds. Weeds thrive in areas with unhealthy grass, where they can take root and dominate over the grass. With the proper lawn fertilization, your grass will be weed-free and lush.
  • Prevents Puddles and Mud: If your lawn becomes a muddy, puddle-riddled mess after a spring or summer shower, it could be because your grass is thin and sparse and the soil is too loose. Lawn fertilization solves both of these problems by helping the grass fill in bare spots and allowing the grass to firm up the soil, keeping it intact with strong and healthy roots.
  • Gives Your Home or Office a Makeover: A new lawn can dramatically change the appearance of your home or office building. Everyone loves a lush and vibrant lawn, and lawn fertilization can help you achieve that. A good lawn can tell people that you take care of your yard and it can give you a sense of pride as well.
  • Environmentally Friendly: People often fear that lawn fertilization might be harmful because the products leech into the ground. However, this is not true. When lawn fertilization is performed properly, the dense and extensive system of roots under a lawn prevents fertilizer from flowing through. In fact, for getting rid of pesky weeds, fertilizer is a better option than weed-killer as it can build the natural resistance of the grass without the use of harsh weed killers.

Lawn Fertilization Mistakes to Avoid

Lawn fertilization, if not done properly, can lead to disastrous results. In fact, making just one mistake could ruin your lawn, instead of improving it. This is why lawn fertilization is often best when left to the experts, like us at Metro Lawn Sprinklers and Landscapes. Here are some of the common mistakes that people make:

  • Not Reading the Instructions: Fertilizer always comes with precise instructions on how and in what quantities to use it. Exceeding these quantities could actually damage your lawn.
  • Not Choosing Fertilizer Based on Soil Type: There are many different types of fertilizer available, and it is important to select the best kind. Having an understanding of the pH balance of your soil and how fertilizer reacts to this, is crucial for selecting the right type of fertilizer for your lawn.
  • Not Fertilizing at the Right Times: The time when the fertilizer is applied is just as important as how much and what kind you apply to your yard. It is important to know the best season to carry out lawn fertilization in order to ensure the best results.
