Our Lawn Care Program in Franklin

Our 6-round program is custom-built for Franklin’s growing season, clay-loam soils, and occasional summer stress. It includes:

  • Lawn Fertilization: Balanced slow-release nutrients for deep roots and sustained color
  • Pre-Emergent Crabgrass Control: Applied early spring to prevent annual weeds
  • Broadleaf Weed Control: Knock down dandelions, clover, and other unwanted guests
  • Insect & Grub Control: Prevent root damage from beetle larvae and surface insects
  • Micronutrient Sprays: Including Mic Drop for soil health and turf vigor
  • Optional Core Aeration & Overseeding: Ideal in September for thickening turf

Franklin Lawn Challenges & Timing

  • Common Issues: Crabgrass, nutsedge, and compacted soils in shady or high-traffic areas
  • Best Treatment Window: April through early November
  • Soil Type: Predominantly clay-loam with decent organic content
  • Microclimate Considerations: Summer irrigation helps avoid heat stress and turf disease
  • Tick & Mosquito Control: Highly recommended in wooded areas like near Beaver St. or King St.
