Aera-Vation and Overseeding Services
Aera-Vation is a process which involves using a machine to cut small holes in the soil, helping water, oxygen and nutrients better access the turf roots. The process is an effective way to reduce compaction and improve drainage.
At Turf Medic, we use Aera-Vation as part of our lawn care program. We also offer overseeding, which is the process of planting additional seeds to increase the density of the turf. We use our knowledge and expertise to choose the right seed for your lawn’s environment, also taking into consideration any existing weeds or disease problems.
Our aera-vation and overseeding program does not just improve the appearance of your lawn – it also helps to reduce disease, weed infestations and water loss. The combination of the two services can greatly benefit your lawn’s health and give it a lush, green appearance.

Corrective Lime Application
Corrective lime applications are an important component of lawn care that helps promote healthy turf and soil conditions. Lime is an alkaline material, usually calcium-based, that when applied to the soil raises its pH level. This increases the availability of essential nutrients such as phosphorus, nitrogen and potassium for plants to absorb and use for growth.
At Turf Medic, corrective lime applications are part of our regular lawn care services. We work with you to determine the best timing for application based on your individual soil requirements and turf conditions. We use only the highest-quality limes that have been tested and proven to be effective in increasing pH levels for optimal growth.
Our professionals understand how important it is to get the job done right and ensure that the application is evenly spread across your lawn. We take special care to apply the lime in a way that won’t damage any existing vegetation or create an uneven surface. As part of our service, we also provide post-application maintenance guidance and recommendations in order to get the best results from our corrective lime application services.
Tree & Shrub Care
At Turf Medic, we provide comprehensive tree and shrub care services to ensure the health and beauty of your landscape. Our experienced technicians are familiar with a variety of trees and shrubs, and can provide tailored advice for their maintenance. We apply fertilizers during the appropriate season that maximize plant growth while minimizing runoff pollution from your yard. Additionally, we provide pruning services to ensure your trees and shrubs remain healthy and beautiful. Our pruning services also help maintain the shape of the trees & shrubs, which is important for aesthetic purposes and reducing potential damage from natural elements.
Termite Bait System
Turf Medic is proud to offer a termite bait system as part of its lawn care services. This system is designed to help protect your home from the destructive activity of subterranean termites. The bait system works by placing small pieces of wood, cardboard or other cellulose material around the perimeter and foundation of your home. These baits are then monitored routinely by pest and lawn care personnel to detect the presence of termites.The bait system is an effective way to control subterranean termites because it works on a slow acting but highly attractive chemical that termites cannot resist.

At Turf Medic, we believe a healthy lawn should be accessible to everyone that is why our lawn treatments begin with a thorough assessment of your lawn to determine what type of treatment is required. We then apply the appropriate treatments for best results, taking into account any specific needs or requests you may have. From there, our team will provide regular maintenance and advise on how to keep your lawn looking its best.

Grass Growth Cycle
Grass growth is heavily influenced by the hot and humid climate of the region. During the summer months, grass grows rapidly due to high temperatures and regular rainfall. However, it can suffer from heat stress during this period as well.
To ensure your grass stays healthy throughout the year, it’s important to understand its growth cycle. In most cases, grass will go through four stages of development: germination, vegetative growth, maturity and dormancy.
During the germination stage, seeds are planted and sprout into tiny seedlings. These take several weeks to develop before entering the vegetative growth phase. Here, grass blades become visible as they rapidly grow in length and thickness. This stage usually lasts a few weeks before the grass reaches maturity.
Once it has reached this point, the grass begins to flower and produce seeds. This is also when it stops growing in height and width, as its resources are now focused on reproduction rather than growth. At this stage, any fertilizers that have been applied start to take effect.
Finally, the grass enters a period of dormancy during the cooler months. Here, it stops growing and waits for warmer temperatures to resume its vegetative growth cycle. During this time, it’s important to keep the grass hydrated and fertilized so that it can remain healthy until spring arrives.

What is the best lawn treatment?
There are a number of lawn treatments available that can help to keep your lawn looking its best. For warm-season grasses such as St. Augustine, centipede and bermuda grass, fertilization is essential in order for the grass to stay healthy and vibrant throughout the year. Additionally, regular application of pre-emergent herbicides can prevent weeds from taking root, while post-emergent herbicides are also a good option for treating existing weed problems. To ensure that your lawn gets the best care possible, it is important to use treatments that are specifically designed for the climate – such as those that contain high levels of nitrogen and potassium, which help grasses to grow more quickly.
Pest control is also important for lawns, as there are a variety of insects and diseases that can damage the grass and impede its growth. In particular, chinch bugs and mole crickets can wreak havoc on your lawn if left unchecked, while fungus problems such as brown patch or large patch can be prevented through regular applications of fungicides.
When should I fertilize my lawn?
Fertilizing your lawn is an important part of keeping it healthy and lush. The best time to fertilize a lawn is during the summer months, between May and September. This is when grasses are actively growing due to warmer temperatures and rainfall. Applying fertilizer during this period helps promote root growth, which keeps your lawn looking green and healthy.
What temperature is too hot to water grass?
When it comes to watering grass, the temperature plays a major role in how effective the water will be. Generally speaking, temperatures over 86 degrees Fahrenheit (30 degrees Celsius) can be considered too hot to effectively water your lawn. At such high temperatures, the water evaporates before it has a chance to penetrate deeply into the roots of the grass blades and provide any lasting benefit.

How much does lawn care cost?
The cost of lawn care will vary depending on the size and complexity of the job. Generally, professional lawn care services can range from a few hundred dollars to several thousand dollars. Factors such as the type of grass, soil type, climate, and existing landscaping features all play important roles in determining the total cost.
What is the cycle for grass growth in the United States?
Grass usually has two growth cycles each year: the warm season and the cool season. During the warm season, which typically runs from April to October, most grass varieties will rapidly start to grow. The cool season is generally November through March and during this time grass growth slows down significantly due to cooler temperatures. Moreso, mowing is an all-year-round activity in many places. In hotter states, the grass consistently grows at a measurable rate due to the relatively higher temperatures compared to the northern states.
How do I make my lawn thicker?
One of the best ways to create a thicker lawn is through overseeding. This involves spreading grass seed on top of your existing lawn, and ensuring that it gets enough sunlight, water and nutrients in order for it to thrive. It is important that you choose the right type of seed for your climate since different types are suited to different regions.
How long does it take for a sprinkler to water 1 inch?
The amount of time it takes for a sprinkler to water one inch depends on three main factors: the size and type of sprinkler, the pressure of the water flow, and the temperature outside. Generally speaking, it will take about an hour for a standard gear drive or rotary sprinkler to water one inch if the water pressure is adequate and the temperature is below 80°F (26.7°C). However, if the temperature is over 80°F it can take up to two hours for a sprinkler to water one inch due to the increased evaporation rate of hot weather.
