Tulsa Fertilization & Weed Control

Why Fertilization Matters

Your lawn is a living, breathing organism that constantly draws nutrients from the soil to fuel its growth. Over time, these essential nutrients become depleted, leaving grass weak, thin, and vulnerable to stress, especially in a climate like Tulsa’s, with hot summers and frigid winters. Professional fertilization replenishes what your lawn needs to flourish, including nitrogen for vibrant green color and robust growth, phosphorus for strong root development, and potassium for disease resistance and drought tolerance. At Leamy Lawn & Landscape, we apply the right blend of nutrients at precisely the right times, giving your grass the tools it needs to outcompete weeds, recover quickly from foot traffic, and maintain its health during even the most brutal points of our seasons.

Here are just a few great reasons to regularly fertilize your lawn:

• Deeper, stronger root systems that anchor your grass and improve drought resistance
• Thicker, denser turf that naturally prevents weed invasion and reduces bare patches
• Enhanced color and visual appeal that make your property stand out in the neighborhood
• Improved resilience against disease, pests, and environmental stress
• Faster recovery from damage caused by heat, traffic, or seasonal challenges
• Reduced long-term maintenance costs by preventing problems before they start

In Tulsa's climate, most lawns should be fertilized twice a year, and when those treatments happen varies based on what type of grass you have. Warm-season grasses, such as Buffalo, Bermuda, St. Augustine, and Zoysia, should be fertilized in mid-spring, usually around April or May, when temperatures average between 75 and 85 degrees Fahrenheit. They should also be fertilized again around August to prevent the grass from forced growth outside of its typical growing season.

Cool-season grasses, such as Kentucky bluegrass, perennial ryegrass, and fescue, should be fertilized in March or April, when temperatures still top out at between 55 and 65 degrees, and then again in the fall, usually around October, when temperatures max out at 60 to 70 degrees.

At Leamy Lawn & Landscape, we tailor our fertilization schedule to your specific grass type and the unique conditions of your property, so your lawn receives exactly what it needs when it needs it most.

Stopping Weeds in Their Tracks

Weeds actively steal water, nutrients, and sunlight from your grass, weakening the turf and creating an endless cycle of maintenance headaches in addition to making your lawn look like a mess. Our targeted weed control treatments stop invasive plants and grass species before they can establish themselves, protecting your lawn from common troublemakers like crabgrass, dandelions, clover, chickweed, henbit, and broadleaf weeds. We use a combination of pre-emergent treatments that prevent weed seeds from germinating and post-emergent solutions that eliminate existing weeds without harming your grass.
