Clean up that Garden!

Clean up that Garden! The most dreaded tasks of all is weeding, but it is one that really needs to be accomplished before the weeds have a chance to flower and go to seed. Don’t break your back…let us do it for you! Remember once the weeds go to seed you can be fighting that weed seed for up to seven years or more. Most weeds can simply be pulled or cultivated out of the garden while they are young. Turn the compost pile, adding any course mulch which was removed from the garden to it. Keep an eye out for Aphids (spray off with water) and Cutworms (Cutworm Dust). Lawn Solutions! We can repair damaged areas of the lawn.... dethatch, rake or aerate. We can sweeten the soil if needed. Most lawns will need a spring feeding but if thatching or liming needs to be done, do those jobs first. If moss is a problem, a combination fertilizer and moss killer can be applied, to do both jobs in one easy application. Over-seeding can be done as the last step, after the lawn has been fertilized. We can test your soil for pH to see if any amendments are necessary. The best way to adjust pH is gradually, over several seasons. We highly recommend a turf care plan for all seasons. You should set us a free consultation with our lawn solutions expert! http://www.keystonegardens.com/About-Keystone-Gardens/Steve-Jones-Lawn-Solutions.aspx
