A good lawn program should be simple to understand and easy to live with. Our Basic 1-2-3 Weed & Feed program is built around that idea. Scientific Plant Service gives your lawn season-long fertilization and weed control using POLYON® controlled-release fertilizer and targeted herbicide applications. You get steady color, fewer weeds, and less guesswork about what to put down and when.
This program focuses on timing and consistency. Each step builds on the last so your lawn stays fed and protected from early spring through fall.
Step
1
Early Spring – POLYON Fertilizer + Crabgrass Prevention
In early spring, we apply a POLYON® controlled-release fertilizer that begins feeding your grass as it wakes up and continues supplying nitrogen well into late summer. Mixed into this application is a pre-emergent herbicide that helps prevent the germination of crabgrass and goosegrass.
What this visit does for your lawn:
- Jump-starts spring growth with slow, steady nutrition.
- Lays down a barrier to stop crabgrass before it sprouts.
- Sets the stage for thicker turf that naturally resists weeds.
Because POLYON releases nutrients gradually as the weather warms and your grass is actively growing, your lawn gets what it needs when it can actually use it.
Step
2
Late Spring – Broadleaf Weed Control
As the season progresses, existing weeds and new spring broadleaf weeds begin to show themselves. On this visit, we:
- Walk the lawn to see where weeds are actually present.
- Apply selective herbicides only where weeds are active.
- Leave desirable turfgrass alone so it can keep filling in.
This targeted approach keeps weed pressure down without unnecessary blanket spraying. You see fewer dandelions, clover, plantain and other broadleaf weeds competing with your grass.

Late Summer / Early Fall – POLYON Fertilizer + Weed Check
When the stress of summer begins to ease, your lawn needs help recovering and preparing for the colder months ahead. On this visit we:
- Scout your lawn for any new or persistent weeds and spot treat where needed.
- Apply another POLYON® fertilizer to feed your lawn through fall and into early spring.
This application:
- Helps your lawn rebuild roots after heat and drought.
- Supports a deep, rich fall color.
- Gives your grass a jump start next spring, often making it one of the greenest lawns on the block.
By feeding into the fall, we help your lawn store energy that pays dividends when the next growing season begins.
You know what we are doing and when we are doing it, and you have one place to call if weeds show up.
