About Southwest Fertilizer

Everything on a Houston lawn comes back to what is under it — heavy clay a few inches down, a growing season that runs nine or ten months, and St. Augustine that will feed hard when it is fed right and sulk when it isn't. Southwest Fertilizer works that side of the equation along Bissonnet, putting down fertilizer on a schedule the grass can actually use and treating weeds while they are small enough to lose. Pre-emergent goes out ahead of the spring flush, spot treatment handles what slips through, and the feeding gets eased back when the July heat says to stop pushing. Mowing and edging keep the surface honest in between. The proof arrives quietly in April, when a lawn that was tan in January comes in thick and even all the way to the sidewalk, with nothing broadleaf standing up in it.
