Heartland’s 7-Step Fertilization Program For Leawood Lawns

We have developed a 7-step program that has helped us become one of the leading fertilization and weed control companies in Leawood. From February to November, our technicians will visit your property up to 7 times in order to provide your lawn with the nutrition and protection it deserves. Below is a brief summary of how our fertilization and weed control treatments address the needs of your turf throughout different points in the year.

•Treatment 1 (Mid February to Mid March): We apply a long-lasting, slow-release spring fertilizer to wake your lawn after dormancy, stimulate root growth, and carry your turf through the early season.

•Treatment 2 (Late March to Late April): Pre-emergent is applied to control weeds that went dormant in the previous fall, and a broadleaf weed killer is applied to dandelions, clovers, thistles, etc.

•Treatment 3 (Late April to Late May): Another broadleaf weed killer is applied alongside a balanced fertilizer to keep your lawn weed-free and maintain nutrient levels until the stress of summer. 

•Treatments 4 & 5 (Late May to Late June): Twice in the heart of summer, we apply a slow-release fertilizer that is designed to withstand the summer heat, and we spot spray any existing weeds.

•Treatment 6 (Late September to Late October): Broadleaf weed control is applied to reduce weed activity between fall and the spring, with an emphasis on preventing mature weeds from dispersing seeds.

•Treatment 7 (Late October to Late November): Our final treatment is a winterizing fertilizer that will sustain and protect your lawn through winter dormancy and into the next growing season.

Why Our Lawn Fertilization In Leawood Works

Your grass needs more than just water and sunshine. It requires the right mix of nutrients at the right time. We don’t take a one-size-fits-all approach. Instead, we assess your lawn’s condition and apply a carefully blended formula designed to support healthy turf and deep roots.

We time our applications to correspond with each phase of the growing season so your grass gets what it needs, when it needs it. Here’s a breakdown of the core ingredients we use and what they do for your lawn:

•Nitrogen: Drives blade and leaf growth for that lush, deep green appearance.

•Phosphorus: Encourages strong root development, especially important in spring and during new seeding.

•Potassium: Helps turf survive drought, temperature swings, and disease pressure.‍

•Micronutrients: Trace elements like iron and manganese enhance color and support metabolic processes.

Our Weed Control Services For Leawood, KS

Weed control is always most effective when it is paired with fertilization treatments. Without weed control, much of the nutritional value of fertilizers could be lost to any emerged or dormant weeds that may already be in your lawn. Weeds that are allowed to grow freely will steal all the nutrients of our fertilizers, which means fewer nutrition for your grass and more bare spots and thinning turf. 

Our technicians are trained in the best methods and are provided with the most effective products to eradicate weeds from your property and make sure your lawn can grow to its full potential. We provide pre-emergent control early in the season to prevent weeds from germinating and sprouting, and post-emergent spot-treatment of weeds is provided throughout the year, as needed.

We Offer Lawn Grub & Disease Control In Leawood

Fertilization helps your lawn grow, but pests and fungal infections can still undo that progress if left unchecked. In Leawood, grubs and turf diseases like brown patch or dollar spot are common threats to healthy grass. That’s why our program also includes proactive solutions for these problems.

Grub Prevention

Grubs feed on grass roots, weakening the turf and leaving behind ugly brown patches. We apply grub control treatments to stop infestations early and protect your lawn’s foundation from damage.

Disease Defense

Fungal outbreaks spread fast and can be tough to reverse. Our disease control treatments target harmful fungi and help prevent them from taking over. Paired with a strong fertilization routine, this keeps your lawn healthier and more resistant to stress.
