Residential Weed Control & Fertilization Services
A lush, green lawn doesn’t grow by accident — it requires both targeted weed control and balanced fertilization that match Houston’s unique climate and soil conditions. Four Seasons Lawn & Landscaping provides professional residential weed control and fertilization services designed to eliminate invasive weeds, strengthen turf, and promote long-term lawn health that stands up to heat, heavy growth cycles, and seasonal weed pressure.
Our approach combines expert timing, scientifically proven products, and local experience so your lawn remains thick, vibrant, and free from recurring weed problems throughout the year.
Balanced Fertilization Built for Houston Soil Conditions
Fertilization is not about applying generic nutrients on a fixed schedule. Houston-area soils often contain heavy clay, inconsistent nutrient profiles, and drainage challenges that require precise treatment timing and product selection.
Our fertilization programs are structured to:
-
Deliver controlled nutrient release
-
Strengthen root development
-
Improve turf density
-
Enhance color without excessive growth
-
Support recovery from heat stress
Balanced fertilization improves the lawn’s natural ability to crowd out weeds rather than relying solely on chemical suppression.
Why Houston Lawns Need Professional Weed Control & Fertilization
Houston’s warm, humid environment and long growing season make lawns especially vulnerable to a variety of common weeds — including crabgrass, dove weed, dollar weed, clover, and others that take advantage of weak turf and bare soil.
Weeds compete with grass for water, nutrients, and sunlight. Left untreated, they spread rapidly and can thin out even established turf, leaving unsightly patches and making your lawn more difficult to maintain. At the same time, Houston’s soil often lacks the optimal balance of nutrients for robust turf growth. Without proper fertilization, grass struggles to grow thick and naturally suppress weed emergence.
That’s why a strategic combination of weed control and fertilization is essential: one eliminates weeds, and the other builds turf strength so weeds have fewer opportunities to return.
Comprehensive Residential Weed Control Tailored for Houston
We begin with a detailed lawn assessment to identify the types of weeds present, the density of infestation, and your grass species — whether St. Augustine, Bermuda, Zoysia, or another turf type common in the Houston area. From there, we design a weed control plan that fits your lawn’s needs.
Turf-Specific Treatment Plans
Different grass types respond differently to herbicides and nutrient blends. Applying the wrong product at the wrong rate can cause stress or discoloration.
We adjust treatment programs based on turf variety, including:
-
St. Augustine
-
Bermuda
-
Zoysia
-
Centipede
Each grass type has unique growth cycles and nutrient demands. Our treatment timing aligns with active growth periods to maximize effectiveness while minimizing stress.
Our Weed Control Treatments Include:
-
Pre-Emergent Applications: These barrier treatments prevent weed seeds from germinating and can stop up to 80–90% of new weeds before they begin.
-
Post-Emergent Treatments: Target existing weeds that are actively growing, including broadleaf and grassy weeds, using selective herbicides applied at the optimal time for best results.
-
Spot Treatments: When weed clusters reappear, we re-treat on a case-by-case basis to avoid blanket overuse of chemicals.
We use professional-grade products and calibrated application techniques to deliver even coverage without damaging surrounding healthy turf.
Year-Round Approach for Long-Term Results
An effective weed control and fertilization plan isn’t a single application — it’s a year-round strategy. Houston’s extended growing season means lawns need consistent treatment schedules to stay ahead of weeds and nutrient depletion.
From early spring pre-emergent applications to summer weed suppression and fall fertilization, our team schedules treatments strategically so your lawn performs well through every season.
Signs Your Lawn Needs Weed Control & Fertilization
You may benefit from our services if your lawn shows:
-
Weed spread despite regular mowing
-
Thin or patchy turf with inconsistent color
-
Bare spots where weeds are taking over
-
Failure to green up after rain or fertilizer
-
Recurring weed outbreaks season after season
These conditions often indicate underlying nutrient deficiencies or timing issues that generic products and schedules don’t address.

Frequently Asked Questions About Weed Control & Fertilization
How long does it take to see results?
Most post-emergent treatments show visible weed decline within 7–14 days, while fertilization improvements may appear over several weeks depending on turf condition.
Will treatments eliminate all weeds permanently?
No lawn can remain 100% weed-free year-round in Houston’s climate. However, strategic treatment significantly reduces density and recurrence.
Is fertilization necessary if my lawn looks green?
Yes. Color alone does not indicate proper root strength or nutrient balance.
Do treatments require watering afterward?
Some applications require light irrigation to activate products. Specific guidance is provided after each visit.
