As lawns move into early summer, Step 2 of the GRAINCO FS 4-Step Fertility Program is key to keeping turf thick, green, and thriving.
Applied in May, this step features a 20-0-5 fertilizer with Trimec® Weed & Feed, designed to deliver nutrients while targeting broadleaf weeds before they spread. It helps your lawn stay dense and better equipped to compete for water, sunlight, and nutrients throughout the summer.
To maximize results this time of year:
- Mow consistently, keeping grass at a healthy height—around 3–3.5 inches—to promote a healthier lawn, especially during hotter, drier summer conditions
- Water deeply (not daily)—2 to 3 times a week is good to encourage stronger roots and reduce disease risk
- Address weeds early before they take hold
- Apply grub control in early summer as a preventative measure before grubs begin feeding
Taking action now helps your lawn handle summer stress and maintain its appearance all season long.
The best part? Getting started is easy.
