Missoula's 'Go Green' Weed Control & Organic-Based Fertilizer Lawn Care Packages

Attention Missoula Home Owners and Commercial Businesses: We have two ways to fertilize your grass areas and control weeds. Traditional and Organic. Learn more about each below.

Traditional Program Overview

Nature’s Best proudly uses organic-based fertilizer as an option on all residential & commercial lawn care treatments in the Traditional plan.

​

Our recommended application schedule is as follows:

• March 15th-April 30th: Granular spring fertilizer to boost lawn color and assist the turf out of winter dormancy. Weed control is included as needed.

• May 1st – June 15th: Granular spring fertilizer and blanket weed control application as needed in weedy areas and spot treatment of all weeds and clover. This is the best time of year to begin the weed elimination process.

• June 16th – July 31st: Summer granular fertilizer and weed control. Spot treatment to reduce weeds as needed. Blanket treatment as needed in weedy areas.

• August 1st – September 15th: Summer granular fertilizer and weed control. A full weed control application may be needed but effectiveness is decreased due to mature stage of weeds and higher temperatures.

• September 16th – October 31st: Fall granular fertilizer & weed control. This is one of the best times of year to apply nutrients to your lawn. It helps retain the color and is very beneficial for the root development. Nutrients applied during this time will help your lawn through the colder months. The benefits are carried over to the next spring. 

Organic Program Overview

Our 100% organic fertilizer is a blend of dried poultry waste, yucca extract, sea kelp and calcium.

​

Our recommended schedule for the application of organic fertilizer is as follows:

• May 1st – June 15th: Granular spring fertilizer to boost lawn color and assist the turf out of winter dormancy. Blanket weed control application as needed in weedy areas and spot treatment of all weeds and clover. This is the best time of year to begin the weed elimination process.

• June 16th – July 31st : Summer granular fertilizer and weed control. Spot treatment to reduce weeds as needed. Blanket treatment as needed in weedy areas.

• Aug. 15th- Sept. 15th:  Summer granular fertilizer and weed control. A full weed control application may be needed but effectiveness is decreased due to mature stage of weeds and higher temperatures.

• Sept. 16th – Oct. 31st: Great time to retain color and help feed the lawn before the winter weather sets in. This treatment will help the lawn in spring as the temperatures rise and the new growing season begins.

Nature’s Best proudly uses Nature’s Intent Organic Fertilizer. Nature’s Intent is certified by the Organic Materials Review Institute and the Department of Agriculture.

*Due to additional time & materials required for the 100% organic treatment plan, there is an additional cost per treatment.
