Seven applications across the season, timed to Connecticut soil temperatures rather than a national calendar. Fertilization, weed control and grub protection are all part of the program. Disease treatment and fall aeration run separately, on their own timing.
Five fertilizer treatments using slow-release nitrogen and professional-grade products, so color holds through summer heat instead of surging and fading.
See the fertilization programCrabgrass pre-emergent before soil reaches 55 degrees, then broadleaf and nutsedge treatment as weeds emerge. Included in every visit, not billed separately.
See our weed control approachBrown patch, dollar spot, red thread and summer patch identified and treated. Disease runs on its own cadence, so this is a separate preventive program rather than part of the seven applications.

What we won't promise is that new weeds never appear. Connecticut lawns are surrounded by woods, wind and wildlife bringing in new weed seeds all season.
The same licensed crew that feeds your lawn handles tick control, tree and shrub care, and fall aeration. One account, one bill, one phone number that a person actually answers.
Prospect sits on elevated terrain between Waterbury and Cheshire, and the town's mix of open suburban lots and wooded edges creates a warm, humid microclimate in summer that accelerates both weed growth and fungal disease. Brown patch and dollar spot can spread quickly through Prospect lawns that don't get preventative fungicide treatments, and crabgrass fills in fast once turf starts to thin. Pro Turf Lawn Care stays ahead of all of it so you don't have to.
Our Prospect lawn care program includes targeted pre-emergent weed control timed to the local season, post-emergent treatments for broadleaf weeds, preventative summer fungicide applications, multi-round fertilization, and fall aeration and overseeding to restore density heading into winter. Prospect homeowners who have tried to manage these problems on their own know how quickly they get out of hand — Pro Turf handles it all so your lawn stays healthy and green all season long.
Every town has its own pressure. Knowing what to expect is half of treating it correctly, and it's the difference between a program built for your property and one run off a national calendar.
Grub and surface insect control are part of the seven-application season, not billed as extras.
Still not sure? Call and ask. A licensed applicator will tell you honestly what your lawn needs.
Brown patch and dollar spot are prevalent in Prospect due to warm, humid summer microclimate. Preventative fungicide in June and July keeps them under control.
Pre-emergent herbicide applied before soil temperatures hit 55°F stops crabgrass from germinating. For existing crabgrass, post-emergent treatments are applied in early to mid-summer.
Fall — September through mid-October — is the best time to overseed in Prospect. Pair it with core aeration for best germination results.
5 rounds per season from early spring through fall. Each application is timed to the local growing season and adjusted based on your turf's specific needs.
