Our Seven-step Fertilizer Program for New Hampshire Lawns
At In The Weeds Turf Care LLC, we understand that maintaining a lush, green lawn requires a thoughtful approach tailored to New Hampshire’s unique climate and soil conditions. Our comprehensive Seven-Step Fertilizer Program is designed to provide your grass with the nutrients it needs throughout the growing season. Here’s a breakdown of the process and timeline:
Step 1: Early Spring Application (April)
Goal: Kickstart Growth
As the snow melts and temperatures rise, we apply a balanced fertilizer to promote early green-up and root development. This initial feeding helps your grass recover from winter stress and prepares it for the growing season.
Step 2: Late Spring Application (May)
Goal: Strengthen Growth
In late spring, we apply a nutrient-rich fertilizer with a focus on nitrogen. This step enhances growth and helps your lawn establish a thick, lush appearance as it enters the peak growing season.
Step 3: Early Summer Application (June)
Goal: Maintain Health
As temperatures rise, we provide a slow-release fertilizer that sustains your lawn’s health through the hotter months. This application helps combat heat stress and promotes deep-root growth.
Step 4: Mid-Summer Application (July)
Goal: Prepare for Heat
This step focuses on maintaining your lawn’s vigor during the hottest part of summer. We apply a specialized fertilizer that includes micronutrients to keep your grass resilient against heat and drought conditions.
Step 5: Late Summer Application (August)
Goal: Revitalize for Fall
As summer winds down, we apply a fertilizer that supports recovery from summer stress. This application encourages root development and prepares your lawn for the upcoming fall season.
Step 6: Early Fall Application (September)
Goal: Promote Strong Growth
With cooler temperatures on the horizon, we provide a fall fertilizer rich in potassium, which helps strengthen your lawn’s root system and enhances its overall health. This step is crucial for winter preparation.
Step 7: Late Fall Application (October)
Goal: Winterization
The final step involves applying a winterizer fertilizer, which helps your grass store nutrients for the winter months ahead. This ensures a strong start come spring, leading to a vibrant, healthy lawn when the growing season resumes.

Tick Management
Ticks aren’t just a nuisance—they can pose serious health risks for your family and pets. Our tick management services provide a comprehensive solution to keep your yard tick-free. We implement targeted applications in areas where ticks thrive, like tall grasses, wooded edges, and shady spots, and apply preventive measures to ensure long-term protection. With our thorough approach, you can enjoy your yard with confidence, knowing it’s safe from ticks and the diseases they carry, such as Lyme disease.
Comprehensive Tick Treatment Solutions
We understand that ticks pose serious health risks to both people and pets. With the rising incidence of tick-borne diseases such as Lyme disease and Rocky Mountain spotted fever, effective tick control is essential for your family's safety. Our dedicated tick treatment services are designed to protect your outdoor spaces and give you peace of mind. Here’s why and how we treat ticks:
Why Treat for Ticks?
1. Health Risks
Ticks are known carriers of various diseases that can have serious health implications. By treating your property, you significantly reduce the risk of tick bites and the transmission of diseases, protecting your family and pets.
2. Prevention of Infestations
Ticks thrive in wooded, grassy, and humid environments. Regular treatment helps eliminate existing tick populations and prevents new infestations, keeping your yard safe for outdoor activities.
3. Enjoy Your Outdoor Space
Ticks can make spending time outside a worrying experience. Effective treatment allows you to enjoy your yard, garden, and recreational areas without the constant fear of encountering ticks.
4. Customized Approach
Every property has unique tick challenges. Our treatment plans are tailored to your specific needs, considering factors like vegetation, landscape layout, and previous tick activity.
How We Treat for Ticks
1. Initial Inspection
Our tick treatment process begins with a thorough inspection of your property. Our trained technicians will:
- Assess the Environment: We identify areas that are conducive to tick populations, such as tall grasses, wooded areas, and underbrush.
- Locate Hotspots: We look for signs of tick activity and potential nesting areas to determine the most effective treatment strategy.
2. Customized Treatment Plan
Based on the initial inspection, we create a tailored tick treatment plan that includes:
- Targeted Treatment Areas: Specific locations where ticks are likely to thrive will be prioritized.
- Treatment Frequency: We recommend a schedule for treatments, typically every 4 to 6 weeks during peak tick season.
3. Effective, Eco-Friendly Products
We use high-quality, eco-friendly products designed to effectively target ticks while ensuring the safety of your family, pets, and the environment. Our treatment solutions include:
- Permethrin-Based Treatments: These are effective against ticks and create a barrier that repels and kills them on contact.
- Insect Growth Regulators (IGRs): These disrupt the tick lifecycle, preventing larvae and nymphs from maturing into adults, thereby reducing future populations.
4. Application Process
During the treatment application, our technicians will:
- Â Target High-Risk Areas: We apply our products to areas where ticks are likely to be found, such as tall grass, shrubs, and shaded regions.
- Create a Protective Barrier: A protective barrier is established around your yard, reducing the likelihood of ticks entering your outdoor space from neighboring properties.
5. Ongoing Monitoring and Maintenance
Our commitment doesn’t end with a single treatment. We focus on long-term control through:
- Regular Follow-Up Inspections: Our team will return periodically to assess the effectiveness of the treatment and make adjustments as needed.
- Scheduled Treatments: We recommend follow-up treatments every 4 to 6 weeks during tick season to maintain effective control.
6. Education and Prevention Tips
We believe in educating our customers about tick prevention. During our visits, we provide:
- Preventive Measures: Tips on how to reduce tick habitats in your yard, such as keeping grass trimmed, removing leaf litter, and creating barriers between wooded areas and your lawn.
- Tick Awareness: Information about the types of ticks common in your area and the importance of regular tick checks after outdoor activities.

Aeration and Overseeding: the Ultimate Lawn Care Duo
At In The Weeds Turf Care LLC, we understand that a lush, green lawn requires more than just regular mowing and watering. Two of the most effective practices for enhancing your lawn’s health and appearance are aeration and overseeding. Together, they create the ideal conditions for strong grass growth, improved resilience, and vibrant color. Here’s an in-depth look at the processes of aeration and overseeding, along with their numerous benefits.
What is Aeration?
Aeration involves perforating the soil with small holes to relieve compaction, allowing air, water, and nutrients to penetrate deeper into the root zone. This process helps create a healthier environment for your grass to thrive.
The Aeration Process:
1. Assessment: We start by evaluating your lawn to determine its condition and need for aeration.
2. Timing: Aeration is typically performed in the spring or fall, during the active growing season, to maximize recovery.
3. Core Aeration: Using specialized equipment, we remove small plugs of soil, creating holes that improve soil structure.
4. Post-Aeration Care: After aeration, we provide guidelines for watering and fertilization to support recovery.
What is Overseeding?
Overseeding is the process of sowing grass seed directly onto an existing lawn. This practice helps thicken the grass, fill in bare spots, and improve the overall quality of your lawn.
The Overseeding Process:
1. Preparation: Following aeration, we prepare the lawn surface by raking away debris and ensuring good seed-to-soil contact.
2. Seed Selection: We choose a high-quality grass seed that matches your lawn type and local climate for optimal results.
3. Seeding: The seeds are evenly spread across the lawn using a broadcast spreader or similar equipment.
4. Watering and Care: After overseeding, we provide instructions for watering and maintenance to promote seed germination and establishment.
Benefits of Aeration and Overseeding
1. Enhanced Grass Growth
Aeration loosens compacted soil, allowing for improved root growth and nutrient absorption. Overseeding introduces new grass varieties, enhancing density and vigor.
2. Improved Soil Health
Aeration reduces thatch buildup and promotes healthy soil microorganisms. Combined with overseeding, this leads to a more resilient lawn.
3. Increased Drought Resistance
With deeper roots established through aeration and new grass growth from overseeding, your lawn becomes more resistant to drought and environmental stressors.
4. Better Nutrient Uptake
Both processes facilitate better access to essential nutrients, ensuring your grass has everything it needs for optimal growth.
5. Filling Bare Spots and Thinning Areas
Overseeding helps fill in thin or bare patches in your lawn, creating a uniform and lush appearance.
6. Disease Resistance
Aeration and overseeding can improve lawn health and resilience, making it less susceptible to pests and diseases.
7. Enhanced Aesthetic Appeal
A thicker, healthier lawn is not only more visually appealing but also enhances your property’s overall value.
Conclusion
Aeration and overseeding are powerful practices that work hand in hand to rejuvenate your lawn and promote long-term health. We offer professional aeration and overseeding services tailored to the unique needs of your lawn.
