Your Minnesota Lawn Experts
Maintaining a healthy, vibrant lawn in the West Metro area can be challenging due to Minnesota's unique climate and soil conditions. Our comprehensive lawn care service addresses these regional challenges head-on, ensuring your property stays lush and beautiful throughout the growing season.
The problems we solve often stem from factors like:
- Harsh winter conditions that can damage grass roots
- Short growing seasons that require precise timing of treatments
- Invasive weed species common to Minnesota
- Clay-heavy soils that may impede proper nutrient absorption
Our lawn care program is tailored to the specific needs of West Metro lawns, with a carefully timed 5-round treatment schedule starting in mid-April and ending in mid-October. This approach ensures your lawn receives the right care at the right time, promoting optimal health and appearance.

Our Lawn Care Process

- Early Spring: Pre-emergent crabgrass control and fertilization

- Early Summer: Slow-release fertilizer and weed control
- Late Summer: Additional slow-release fertilizer and weed control

Seasonal Lawn Fertilization
Lawn fertilization is crucial for maintaining a healthy, vibrant lawn. Regular fertilization becomes essential as soil nutrients deplete over time due to factors like rainfall, irrigation, and plant uptake. In Minnesota, where soil conditions and climate can vary significantly, a tailored approach to fertilization is necessary to address specific regional challenges.
Go Green Lawn Care offers a 100% all-natural, organic-based fertilizer that promotes deep root growth. This slow-release formula provides consistent nutrition to your lawn, supporting long-term health and resilience. By choosing organic fertilizers, you're nourishing your lawn and contributing to a more environmentally friendly landscaping practice.
Our Fertilization Process
- Initial lawn assessment
- Development of a customized fertilization plan
- Application of organic-based, slow-release fertilizer
- Regular follow-up treatments every 30-45 days
- Ongoing monitoring and adjustments as needed
Professional Weed Control
Weeds can quickly take over a lawn, disrupting its appearance and health. These unwanted plants compete with grass for nutrients, water, and sunlight, creating a patchy and unhealthy lawn. Common weeds like crabgrass and broadleaf species thrive in our region due to favorable climate conditions and soil types. Professional weed control addresses these issues by targeting weeds at different growth stages, ensuring a comprehensive approach to lawn care.
Pre-emergent and Post-emergent Weed Control
Our weed control service utilizes both pre-emergent and post-emergent treatments. We apply a granular fertilizer containing pre-emergent herbicides to prevent crabgrass before it germinates. For existing broadleaf weeds, we use post-emergent herbicides when weeds are actively growing, typically during warmer weather. This dual approach ensures year-round protection for your lawn.

Frequently Asked Questions
Our comprehensive lawn care FAQ answers your most common questions about maintaining a healthy, vibrant lawn throughout the seasons, helping you understand our professional approach to lawn maintenance and insect control.
Do you offer an organic fertilizer or weed control?
Yes and no. We do offer a 100% all-natural organic-based fertilizer, which is a slow-release product to promote deep root growth in your yard. As far as "organic" weed control, there is no such thing out there that is effective. We can always spot-spray your weeds to reduce chemicals in your yard.
How do I get the best results with mowing?
You should mow your lawn at a minimum of 3" during the growing season. Depending on the lawn, maybe even a little higher.
Do I need grub control or insect control on my lawn?
Grubs and insects naturally exist in lawns each year, but the extent of damage depends on weather conditions and pest populations. While grub and insect control isn't necessary every season, it serves as valuable insurance for your lawn—protecting against unexpected pest population spikes that could cause significant damage. Like other insurance policies, you hope you won't need it, but you'll be grateful for the protection during years when these destructive pests become prevalent.
I had my first application already applied. Why do I have weeds?
The first application is a granular fertilizer which contains a pre-emergent for crabgrass. Since broadleaf weed control is not a preventative, it is only effective when weeds have already germinated and are actively growing. Weed control is usually applied with your second and subsequent applications when the weather has warmed up enough to allow the broadleaf weed control to be effective.
How many applications of fertilizer do I need each year?
We recommend that you fertilize every 30-45 days to keep your lawn healthy and green. This works out to be 5 applications per year.
It has been two days since my application was done. Why do I still have weeds?
Some broad-leaf weeds will curl up and die almost immediately, and some will take as many as two weeks to die. If weeds are still present after two weeks, call us, and we will come out and spot-spray the weeds at no extra charge.
Does weed control work if it rains after the application?
Yes, we use a spreader/sticker together with the weed control treatment to ensure adhesion. Even if there is a light rain during or shortly after application, our weed treatments will still be effective.
How long after an application is done on my lawn can I start watering?
You can begin to water your lawn after the sprays have dried which is usually in about an hour on a sunny day.
How often should I water my lawn?
We recommend watering every day between 5 am and 9 am for 20 - 30 minutes per zone. On extremely hot days, add a late afternoon watering around 6 pm.
How long should my children and pets stay off the lawn after a lawn application?
Please stay off the lawn until the lawn is dry, or as an extra precaution, wait 24 hours. With the sun and wind, the material dries relatively fast, but waiting as long as possible is best.
How long should I wait to mow after an application?
For the best results, we recommend 24 hours. If you are mowing high, you can technically mow the same day and still be okay, but waiting 24 hours is best.
