Lawn Fertilization
At New Horizon Property Management, we have developed a comprehensive weed control and fertilization program tailored to meet the needs of your lawn. Our proven 5-Step program combines pre-emergent and post-emergent treatments to prevent and eliminate unwanted weeds. We use nutrient-rich, slow release fertilizers that enhance your lawn’s appearance by providing continuous feeding of nutrients while reducing the surge of clippings typically seen after fertilization treatments. This promotes a stronger root system, vibrant green grass, and a healthier lawn overall. Unlike our competitors, we also include Grub Control in our program to protect your lawn from these damaging pests. With scheduled applications throughout the year, our program ensures your lawn remains weed-free, lush, and healthy in every season.
Effective Weed Control & Prevention
Getting rid of weeds and preventing them are two different challenges. That’s why we use both pre-emergent and post-emergent treatments—stopping weeds before they sprout and controlling any that manage to appear.
Our targeted applications prevent spring weeds and tackle summer growth, applied at the right time when weeds are most likely to germinate. Invasive grasses like crabgrass, quackgrass, and dallisgrass can quickly take over your lawn, altering its texture and color while weakening its overall health.
Why Prevention Matters
Crabgrass spreads through seeds each year, especially in stressed or thinning areas of your lawn. Once it takes hold, eliminating it completely can take multiple seasons, making prevention essential.
Our Approach
We integrate crabgrass treatments with fertilizer as part of your customized lawn care program. Since these invasive grasses aren’t typically controlled with broadleaf weed killers, a specialized treatment plan is necessary.

5 Step Fertilization and Weed Control
Our comprehensive, seasonally timed lawn care applications ensure your lawn stays healthy, weed-free, and vibrant throughout the year. Each treatment is strategically applied to promote growth, strengthen roots, and protect against weeds and pests.
Round 1 – Early Spring Application
Kickstart your lawn’s growth after winter dormancy with a pre-emergent herbicide to prevent crabgrass and other annual weeds before they emerge. A slow-release fertilizer provides essential nutrients, ensuring your lawn greens up and thrives as the season begins.
Round 2 – Late Spring Application
Target actively growing broadleaf weeds like dandelions and clover with a selective herbicide that eliminates weeds without harming your grass. A balanced fertilizer strengthens root development and enhances green, healthy growth in preparation for summer.
Round 3 – Summer Application
Maintain your lawn’s health through summer’s heat with a slow-release fertilizer that provides steady nourishment. A preventative grub control treatment protects against root-damaging pests like white grubs, while spot weed treatments keep your lawn thick, green, and pest-free.
Round 4 – Late Summer / Early Fall Application
Help your lawn recover from summer stress and prepare for cooler temperatures. A balanced fertilizer promotes root strength and thicker turf, while weed control eliminates any lingering weeds for a clean, healthy lawn.
Round 5 – Fall / Winterization Application
Prepare your lawn for winter dormancy with a specialized winterization fertilizer that fortifies turf and encourages deep root growth. A blanket herbicide treatment eliminates any emerging winter weeds, ensuring a strong, green start in the spring.
