As a homeowner, you should feel proud when people pull up to your property to visit. A good first impression goes a long way! Beautiful green grass, free from bare spots and overgrown weeds, is a huge component of an attractive yard. However, this is hard to attain without a thoughtful approach to healthy soil, fertilization and weed control!

Promote Healthy Grass Growth with Atkins’ Fertilization Services

Our primary goals with fertilization are to achieve deep green color and density since a dense stand of grass is the best weed control. With sports turf we fertilize more heavily to push faster recovery because regular use causes greater stress. Whether it be your home lawn or sports turf, a high traffic with full sun or shade, Atkins can design the correct level of fertility to get you the best lawn possible.

Our Lawn Care Fertilization Services

We offer the following lawn fertilization services: 

  • Our standard lawn care program, which includes fertility and weed control, includes six timely applications. Done through the season, the objective is green grass with a dense root system that helps eliminate space for weeds to grow.
  • Our sports turf fertilization program enhances growth, turf density and recovery during active seasons.
  • We include a “soil amendment” treatment to improve overall effectiveness of the fertility program and reduce normal summer stresses on your lawn.
  • We can conduct a soil test via the University of Missouri Soils Lab and apply amendments to improve your soil based on the results.
  • If the “standard lawn care program” is not for you, Atkins will customize a plan to suit your needs and tolerance levels for any lawn situation.
  • We can fertilize your trees and shrubs with applications for the particular species and location — deep root injection, foliar nutrition or vascular treatment.

Weed Control for Your Mid-Missouri Lawn

It’s not that you’re unfriendly, but you just know that a dandelion, or any of its weed friends, is not welcome in your yard. Yet these unwelcome “guests” seem to find their way unless you regularly pull the welcome mat out from under them.


Our technicians also understand that effective weed control for grass and turf is best done with a comprehensive grounds maintenance process. For long-term success, the process includes feeding the soil,
fertilizing for dense grass or healthy shrubs, careful mowing and trimming, and appropriate use of products to prevent or kill unwanted plants. We look for the source of weed issues and treat your property for long-term results.
