At Groundhog Turf Care, we have two standards: "very good" and "excellent." That's why we use phosphorus, biological metabolites and micro-nutrients in our fertilizers that are not available with the liquid-based lawn fertilizers used by other lawn care companies. We know that a nutrition-based lawn care program will create a robust turf that is able to withstand environmental stresses better than a lawn treated with the cheap stuff. While the initial cost of our fertilizer is a bit higher, it is a timed-release formula - so we only need to visit a client's property six times instead of seven, as most liquid-based lawn care services do.
As a top nutrition-based lawn care service, we're committed to helping keep your lawn and plants healthy. Our team is trained and licensed in turf care. Call us today to learn how our programs can keep your landscape looking its best!
The landscape management programs from Groundhog Turf Care are designed to improve the health and vigor of your lawn and shrubs, while creating a pest-free landscape that requires less maintenance each year. Each one of our programs targets the problem areas in a systematic way. We apply the principles of plant health care to effectively reduce the landscape's dependency on chemical controls. While these are not organic lawn care programs, we do see a reduction in the amount of chemical needed to control many landscape problems.
Late spring is the time of year where turf diseases start to take over lawns. Our cool-season turf grasses here in New Hampshire are susceptible to a number of different diseases. Because diseased lawns are confused with drought-stressed lawns, homeowners will often increase watering - which only makes the problem worse. To determine the difference, you need to take a closer look. First, check the soil moisture levels and then inspect the turf for disease activity. Some of the lawn diseases we see here in New Hampshire are red thread, leaf, dollar-spot, frog-eye and black smut.
Does your lawn look like it's drying out? If it's in springtime, it's probably leaf spot turf disease. Here's what it - and other lawn diseases - look like and what to do about them.

We hope everyone is staying safe during these trying times. We are still operating as landscaping is an essential business. We are spraying for ticks now to keep your yard clear of pests so you can take full enjoyment of your property. We have started lawn fertilization operations as well and started greening up lawns last week. If have any questions or would like to schedule service please feel free to give us a call.
We are out spraying for ticks now. If you are seeing activity on your property please give us a call, nymph ticks are what emerges the most in spring. These little guys are the hardest to find (size of a pin head). Often times they are vectors of lyme disease due to having recently fed on its first...
Of all the spray programs at Groundhog Turf Care, our tick control services are perhaps the most important, because this insect feeds on people!
