Five-Step Fertilization & Weed Control Program

FreshWater Landscaping’s comprehensive program delivers nutrient-rich fertilizer and targeted weed control throughout the Lake Minnetonka area for a healthy, weed-free lawn year-round.

Our team spot sprays weeds and provides targeted weed treatments throughout each step to keep your lawn weed-free.

Program Steps

• Step 1: Early Spring Pre-Emergent & Soil Prep – Apply pre-emergent herbicide to stop crabgrass and broadleaf weeds before they start, while conditioning soil for optimal nutrient uptake.
• Step 2: Spring Starter Fertilizer – Deliver a balanced NPK blend to promote lush green-up, deep root development, and recovery from winter stress.
• Step 3: Early Summer Weed Control & Green Boost – Spot-treat existing weeds with post-emergent herbicide and provide a high-nitrogen application for vibrant color.
• Step 4: Late Summer Root Development – Use lower nitrogen plus potassium to strengthen roots, improve heat and drought tolerance, and fortify turf health.
• Step 5: Fall Winterizer & Disease Prevention – High-phosphorus and potassium application to support nutrient storage, enhance winter survival, and reduce spring disease issues.
