Our Unique 1-2-3 Weed and Feed Program 

A critical component of our lawn care service in Ellicott City is our custom three-step “weed and feed” system. This program provides your lawn with essential nourishment while preventing weed growth. The three steps include: 

• An application of POLYON fertilizer in early spring to slowly release nitrogen throughout the summer. We add an herbicide to the fertilizer to prevent the germination of Goosegrass and Crabgrass. 
• When broadleaf weed activity peaks in late spring, we return to apply herbicide controls, treating only where weeds are active. 
• Near the end of the summer, we survey your lawn for more weeds and apply POLYON for the fall. This fertilizer application also gives your yard a head start for next spring. 

With the help of our professional team, you can look forward to growing a green, lush lawn. 

The Benefits of POLYON Fertilizer 

We always incorporate the best products into our programs to ensure that our customers receive the best possible service. One of the most significant additions to our lawn care programs has been POLYON fertilizer. 

POLYON technology is beneficial for eliminating potential nutrient runoff and allows us to apply 30 to 50% fewer nutrients while providing high-quality lawn care. This fertilizer’s unique features enable us to provide your lawn with the nutrition it needs for the year with two granular treatments.
