About us!
The Grass Grapplers
I am an Environmental Studies major from Simpson College where I wrestled collegiately. A good portion of my degree came in agriculture, and I am very well versed in the characteristics and health of plants including grass and the weeds we all loathe. Today I am a teacher and Wrestling Coach at Keller Central. So you see the inspiration behind the name. I am the original Grass Grappler.
Mowing
We maintain lawns for our customers. We offer mulching services, not bagging services. We have purchased powerful mulching Honda mowers. And we use those mowers to return the clippings to your soil.
Fertilization
Most people agree that beautiful yards are thick, green, and weed free. Thick yards leave little real estate for weeds to take hold, and of course when you feed your yard, you magnify the green. You can add 5 pounds of nitrogen to your yard annually, and up to 1.25 pounds per 1000 sq feet per application. We have customers that fertilize once per year, and those that max it out and do it 4X. Let us design a fertilization plan around your lawn care goals and budget.
Pre-emergent
I use Prodiamine which is sprayed between the grass blades in your yard. Pre-emergent is for your soil, not your grass. The chemicals interfere with the root development of plants. That includes all seedlings - weeds and grass. Don’t put down pre-emergent if you want to overseed in Fall or Spring! Do put down preemergent if you want to interfere with new weed growth in your yard. Yards that get on a pre-emergent routine build a barrier vs weeds and annual grasses. And this is what Pre-emergent can do for your yard. Annual grasses such as crab grass are a pain as post emergent treatments normally do little to control them after they have rooted into your yard.
Post-emergent
Post emergent is used for the broadleaf weeds that find a way through the Pre-emergent barrier. IF you have crab grass, nutsedge, or dallisgrass problems, pre-emergent is a better strategy to clean up your yard. I use Celsius which works slowly over 30 days to slowly strangle the weed growth in your yard I love this Product in Spring and early Summer. For yards that get into the chemical treatment game after early Summer, I will often use a good weed and feed to provide a one - two punch with post emergent and fertilization. This can be a good value for yards that have been neglected early. Every yard is different!
Landscaping
At grass grapplers, we don’t do hardscape. We will do some flowerbed work. We trim bushes. We have the equipment to remove most trees. If you have a landscaping job you need done, ask. We have done several jobs from flowerbeds, to flagstone, to tree removal. Mowing keeps us pretty busy, but If we have time, we will get you taken care of.
