FERTILIZATION & PEST CONTROL
Seasonal feeding and protection that keep your field safe, playable and green all year.
ESSENTIAL PRACTICE FOR GRASS HEALTH
Seasonal fertilization and pest control are key to a healthy, high-performance sports turf. They keep the field looking good, and above all functional and safe throughout the year.
Feed the turf when it needs it
Constant athlete traffic, soil compaction and weather drain nutrients from the field during the growth cycle, especially after periods of heavy use.
We apply fertilizer at the right time, based on soil needs, weather and the growth phase of the grass. That strengthens the roots, drives vigorous growth and balances soil nutrition.
Protect it before problems spread
Pests, diseases and fungi such as mildew, brown spot and bacterial infections can weaken the grass and open failures in the field.
We spray specific fungicides and pesticides strategically and at the correct dosage. That prevents infections, controls pests and reduces the need for invasive treatments like replanting damaged areas. Spraying also helps the grass grow more uniform.
Done together and well planned, fertilization and spraying give a well-nourished, pest-free turf that performs at its highest level, whatever the weather or the workload.
SOIL & FERTILITY PROGRAM
The Soil & Fertility Program starts from a lab analysis of your soil, not from a standard bag. We prescribe the fertilizer composition (N‑P‑K), the amendments that correct pH and structure, and sand where the profile needs to drain better, then apply it with our crew or hand your crew a written prescription. A follow-up soil test a few months in shows what the program changed.
We take lab soil samples on each field; the samples from a Free 10-Point Field Assessment count as the starting analysis.
We write the program: N‑P‑K composition, amendments, rates, timing and, where needed, the sand specification and topdressing cadence.
Our licensed crew applies on the calendar, or your crew applies to the written prescription with the products we supply.
A follow-up soil test a few months in, compared with the start.
We revise the prescription from the new readings for the rest of the year.
Year-round program; applications follow the growing season and local fertilizer ordinances. Timing confirmed on the site visit.
WHEN TO DO IT
Plan it through the year, following the grass growth cycle, the weather and how hard the field is used.
Fertilize to strengthen the roots and prepare the field for winter, so it has a good nutrient base for the slower growing season.
The ideal time for preventive spraying against pests and fungi that build up after the hot season, and to raise the field’s resilience before winter.
Usually minimal, since growth is slower. A light, potassium-focused application helps strengthen the field through the cold.
Generally limited, as cold slows pests and diseases. With a history of fungal disease or persistent pests, preventive spraying can still be done.
One of the most important applications: the field starts its active growth cycle. Nitrogen-rich fertilizer drives growth and recovery after winter.
A critical time. Preventive fungicides and pesticides stop the fungi and infections common in this season of fast growth.
More maintenance and nutritional support, but applied sparingly, focused on nutrient balance and avoiding soil overload.
Heat and humidity favor pests and fungi. Continuous control with preventive and curative treatments, especially after heavy rain or pest pressure.
Bars show how intense the work usually is in each season.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Why does a sports field need a fertilization program?
Constant athlete traffic, soil compaction and weather drain nutrients from the field during the growth cycle, especially after periods of heavy use. Feeding at the right time, based on soil needs, weather and the growth phase of the grass, strengthens the roots, drives vigorous growth and balances soil nutrition.
What is the Soil & Fertility Program?
A program that starts from a lab analysis of your soil, not from a standard bag. We prescribe the N-P-K composition, the amendments that correct pH and structure, and sand where the profile needs to drain better. Our licensed crew applies it on the calendar, or your crew applies to our written prescription. A follow-up soil test a few months in shows what changed, and we adjust the rest of the year from it.
Which pests and diseases do you treat?
Pests, diseases and fungi such as mildew, brown spot and bacterial infections, which weaken the grass and open failures in the field. We spray specific fungicides and pesticides strategically and at the correct dosage, which prevents infections and reduces the need for invasive treatments like replanting damaged areas.
When should a field be fertilized and sprayed?
Through the year, following the growth cycle, the weather and how hard the field is used. Spring is one of the most important moments for both. Summer calls for balanced feeding and continuous pest control. Fall prepares the field for winter, and winter work is usually light. Applications also follow local fertilizer ordinances.
