Schedule Updates

AUGUST 2017

Irrigation Installation, Service & Repairs
We are performing the Sprinkler System Checks & Repair services. You should have your irrigation set to run 4-5 days per week, 10 minutes on pop-up zones and 20-25 minutes on rotating zones. Give us a call if you are ready to get on the schedule. If you are interested in having an irrigation system installed, please give the office a call at 913-829-6135.

Turf Maintenance
We are applying Round 5 of our 7 Round Turf Program. Round 5 is a liquid application targeting nutsedge, broadleaf, and grassy weeds in the lawn. Turf Managers will also assess lawns at this time to determine if and what is needed as far as a Fall Lawn Renovation. Aeration, verticutting and overseeding being the common items to be done in order to keep the lawn full and thick. If you are interested in starting your personalized turf health plan please give us a call.

Plant Health Care
We are currently applying Round 3 of our plant insecticide program for the 2017 season. Round 3 is a treatment to control primarily spider mites on spruce, junipers and burning bush. Please call to schedule a consultation with one of our certified Arborist today.

Mowing Service
The mowing season has begun and will run weekly from now until the end of October. Due to the rainy weather they may be behind a day or two but will work weekends to catch up. If you are interested in the weekly mowing service, please contact the office.

The Miracle Grass

 Can’t sleep?  Eyes glued to the infomercial playing late night?  Thinking about ordering some of that "Miracle Grass Seed" advertised?  Before you sign up for those 3 easy installment payments, think over the promises they are making: 

 
**"Saves you work by crowding out weeds"- what would make it stop when coming to your plants or flowers? 
 

**"So hardy, it stays green thru heavy foot traffic, drought, scorching heat, freezing cold & even snow!"- this is starting to sound like the dreaded Bermuda Grass, which most of us strive to block out of our lawns.

 
**"Beautiful grass that stays green year-round, from Florida to Alaska!" they claim.  In that case, how come more  
    plantings do not survive nationwide?  This species defies the zoning map of the United States for plantings?  How
    come we have not heard of this scientific miracle before?
 
Before you call that toll free number, remember….if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.  You will probably have better luck with the the Magic Bullet food chopper.  At least then you will get a free gift!  🙂
