Home Turf - Osage's Qualified Landscapers

Our program is designed for the Iowa growing season. It starts with early-season crabgrass prevention, followed by soil conditioning to improve nutrient uptake. Subsequent steps include balanced fertilization with added micronutrients to address local soil deficiencies, along with targeted weed control. The final applications focus on strengthening grass roots before winter, helping your lawn green up faster in the spring.

For tree root damage, we recommend and perform core aeration to relieve soil compaction and improve oxygen flow to grass roots competing with trees. We can also overseed with shade-tolerant grass blends. Regarding irrigation, while we don't repair systems, our soil conditioning services help improve water retention, and we can adjust mowing and treatment schedules based on your system's performance to ensure your lawn gets the moisture it needs.

Yes, we offer core aeration and overseeding as standalone services. These are particularly beneficial for lawns dealing with compaction, thin grass, or poor soil quality. We often recommend them in the fall for Osage lawns, as this timing allows the new grass seeds optimal conditions to establish before the next growing season.
