Fall is the time to help your lawn develop a deep healthy root
system. As the temperatures decrease; your lawn redirects its energy from
leaf production and top growth to lateral growth and root development.
A late fall application of a fertilizer containing nitrogen at the rate of .9
pounds total nitrogen
per 1000 sq. ft. will
promote this growth.
This natural survival

the soil, minimizing
moisture loss thru

protects the turf from
c o m p e t i t i o n s u c h
as broadleaf weeds
and crabgrass. A late
fall application also
promotes early spring
green up the following
season without the
need for additional
spring fertilizer.

Never been white collar
Just not my cup of tea
Now my collar's blue
I work at MGC
We're always here to help
To share the things we know
To help you with your landscape
To help your garden grow
If your lawn looks thin and yellow
And you don't know what to do
To turn that yellow into green
It takes a little blue"

every corner of your life." ~ Rumi
