Winnipeg is a city with a history tightly linked to agriculture; there’s a reason our Golden Boy is holding wheat, after all! Our agricultural background comes from our fertile lands, but earth high in nutrients comes with it’s own set of disadvantages; there’s a lot of weeds that can grow here, be it in your lawn or in your garden.

That’s why we offer customers a comprehensive weed control strategy; one that gets rid of the plants you don’t want, while maintaining the plants that you do. Our strategy effectively targets broadleaf weeds and crabgrass, ensuring that your lawn remains pristine and free of these common nuisances.

Did you know that there are different types of turf grasses? In Manitoba, we predominantly have cool-season grasses, which thrive in our climate. These grasses remain green later into the fall and enter their active growing season in early spring. Direct sunlight can be too intense for cool-season grasses, so they benefit from some shade to stay cool. They’re not as tolerant of the heat and can turn brown without enough water, especially on hot days. A few examples of cool-season grasses include Kentucky bluegrass and fescues.

Depending on the specific cool-season grass in your lawn, the exact timing of your fertilizer schedule may vary. Not sure what type of grass you have? Give us a call! Our lawn care experts will be happy to help."

So, how often should you fertilize your lawn?

The first application should be when your grass enters the active growing phase (usually early spring). You want to be sure to apply the first dose of lawn fertilizer before summer temperatures peak. To ensure optimal growth, we recommend applying fertilizer approximately every 4 to 6 weeks throughout the growing season, for a total of four visits. During the summer, you can apply fertilizer one or two more times. 

Have you recently reseeded your lawn? If so, be sure to select a starter fertilizer that’s designed for these lawns.

Finally, apply the last round of fertilizer in the fall. We recommend a slow-release fertilizer for this season. This will supply your grass with the nutrients it needs to recover from the hot, dry summer. It also gives your grass a boost that will help it endure the winter. By the time spring comes again, your grass will be healthy, green, and ready for the next feeding.
