Lawn Care System
Superior Soil healh with minimal stress
Professional Granular Fertilizer Designed Specifically for the Wastach Front Climate
First, we start with granular fertilizer specifically designed for our climate. Our fertilizer creates a “nutrient bank” in your soil, feeding beneficial microorganisms that improve soil structure and water retention – crucial for the Wasatch Front’s alkaline clay soils and high-altitude growing conditions.
Next, we apply even distribution technology. Using professional spreaders, we ensure uniform coverage across your entire lawn. No missed spots or over-application that can burn your grass during critical summer months.
Finally, our 4-application schedule is customized for our mountain valley conditions, and specifically formulated for:
Wasatch Front's alkaline soils - pH-balanced nutrition
High-altitude growing conditions - Altitude-appropriate formulations
Utah's unique climate challenges - Temperature and precipitation variables
Two-phase summer feeding - Optimal nutrition through peak stress

Why is granular better and more cost effective that liquid fertilizer products?
Many liquid fertilizer services dilute their products to stretch coverage and increase profits. You pay for full-strength nutrition but receive watered-down results that require more frequent applications.
Will the summer heat impact the granular fertilizer performance?
Unlike companies that skip summer or apply inappropriate fertilizers during heat:
- Two strategic summer applications – Lighter, more frequent feeding
- Heat-resistant formulations – Won’t burn during Utah summers
- Continuous nutrition – No summer nutrition gaps
- Professional timing – Applied during optimal weather windows
No Dilution - Every application delivers maximum nutrient density
Proper Quantities - We never reduce application rates to cut costs
