In order for your lawn to grow, it needs nutrition - just like people. Fertilizer provides the nutrition your lawn needs to be healthy and strong and to continue growing and staying green and vibrant through the seasons. Proper fertilization is an important part of any complete residential lawn care plan.
Fertilization is a crucial aspect of many of our lawn care services, including:
FLOWER BED / PLANT BED MAINTENANCE
From tidying edges to planting flowering annuals to providing fertilization, mulching, and weed control treatments, we keep your garden beds / plant beds looking perfect throughout the year. Fertilizer is an important piece of this puzzle.
LAWN CARE
Keeping your lawn green and gorgeous seasonally requires fertilization treatments.
WEED CONTROL
Many people don't realize this, but fertilization and effective weed control go hand in hand. By making sure that your grass is healthy and thick, you'll be effectively preventing the growth of unwanted plants. Most weed seeds won't make it to the soil; those that do won't receive sunlight and water. By feeding the "good," meaning the grass on your lawn, you will effectively starve the "bad," meaning weeds.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Why is fertilization important for my lawn?
A: Fertilizer gives your grass the essential nutrients it needs to grow strong, green, and healthy. Without it, your lawn can become thin, discolored, or vulnerable to pests, disease, and weed growth.
Q: How does fertilization help with weed control?
A: A thick, healthy lawn naturally chokes out weeds by blocking their access to sunlight, water, and nutrients. Fertilization feeds the “good” (your grass), which helps starve the “bad” (weeds), reducing the need for herbicides.
Q: What types of properties do you service?
A: We offer fertilization and weed control for residential homes, commercial properties, flower beds, trees, shrubs, and more—anywhere that needs expert care.
Q: Is the fertilization safe for kids and pets?
A: Yes. Growing Solutions uses products that are licensed by the Louisiana Department of Agriculture and Forestry and are applied by trained, insured professionals. We prioritize your lawn’s health and your family's safety.
Q: How often should fertilization treatments be done?
A: Most lawns benefit from 4–6 applications per year, depending on grass type, soil condition, and season. We’ll recommend a custom plan that suits your lawn’s specific needs.
Q: What happens if I already have a weed problem?
A: Don’t worry—our team can apply targeted weed control treatments to address the issue. Then we’ll recommend a fertilization schedule to help prevent future weed outbreaks.
Q: Do you offer ongoing lawn care plans?
A: Yes! We can bundle fertilization, mowing, weeding, flower bed maintenance, and more into a year-round lawn care plan that’s both convenient and cost-effective.
