Spring Lawn & Garden Care

Ready to Start Seeing Green?

With these mild March temps, now is the time to get a jumpstart on lawn weed treatments!

Nourish your lawn and eradicate pesky crabgrass before it starts with MaxLawn Crabgrass Preventer & Lawn Food. To prevent crabgrass from growing, and to keep your lawn weed-free, apply this pre-emergent herbicide between mid-March and late-April.

Spring is the only time to apply a granular Crabgrass Preventer. To be effective, the product must be applied before the ground temp reaches 55 degress. To check your local soil temps, visit the GreenCast Soil Temperature Tool.

*Do not seed or sod for 10 weeks after applying Crabgrass Preventer.

Once crabgrass is growing and established in your lawn, you will need to treat it with a crabgrass weed-killer spray.

Get Ready To Grow!

Planting seeds for your vegetable garden? Give them the light and airy, nutrient-rich soil they need to grow with Coast of Maine’s Organic Seed Starter

Looking for a quick and cost-effective way to expand your wildflower areas? Check out our Ultra Wildflower mixes for Sun/Shade sites and for Pollinators. 

March on in and see us for all of your lawn and garden needs.

From all of us at Balsam Lake Pro-Lawn, Happy Spring!
