MW Lawn & Landscape’s 7-Stage fertilizer and weed control program feeds your lawn and stops weeds at exactly the right time for Johnson County’s cool-season grasses. Family-owned for 25+ years across Olathe, Overland Park, Lenexa, and all of Johnson County, KS with a traditional or all-natural program to choose from.
A thick, green, weed-free lawn doesn’t come from a one-time treatment it comes from feeding and protecting your grass at the right time, all season long. Our 7-Stage program is built for Johnson County’s cool-season fescue and bluegrass lawns and our clay-heavy soil, pairing seasonally timed fertilizer with pre-emergent and broadleaf weed control. Done right, on the right schedule, it’s the difference between a lawn that just survives the Kansas summer and one that thrives.

Fertilizing at the wrong time can do more harm than good. We time every application to how cool-season grass actually grows so your lawn greens up without the weak, forced growth that comes from feeding too early or too hard in the heat.

We stop crabgrass before it germinates in spring and target broadleaf weeds like dandelion, clover, and thistle all season pre-emergent to prevent, post-emergent to eliminate.

Tall fescue, bluegrass, and Johnson County’s clay soil need a local approach, not a national one-size-fits-all program. We treat what your lawn actually is.

Choose our standard program or an all-natural / organic-based option for families who prefer it either way, applied by licensed, trained professionals using products available only to the pros.

Our 7-Stage program is a round-based plan built for Johnson County’s cool-season lawns. Across the season we apply the right fertilizer and weed control at the right time spring pre-emergent and feeding, broadleaf control through the growing season, summer-stress protection, and the most important feedings in fall when cool-season grass does most of its root growth. It’s a full fertilizer service and weed control program in one.
Our program is built around 7 seasonally timed rounds. Spreading feedings out rather than dumping everything at once keeps growth steady, strengthens roots, and helps the turf crowd out weeds. We tailor the plan to your grass type, soil, and lawn condition.
For the cool-season fescue and bluegrass lawns common in Johnson County, heavy nitrogen in the heat of summer is not recommended it can stress the grass and feed summer weeds and disease. Our program eases off nitrogen in midsummer (using iron for color instead) and loads the key feedings into fall, when the grass can actually use them.
Yes fertilization and weed control work together. A well-fed, dense lawn is your best long-term defense, and we pair it with pre-emergent in spring to stop crabgrass before it starts and post-emergent control for broadleaf weeds through the season. The goal is turf so thick weeds have nowhere to take hold.
Cost depends on your lawn’s size, its condition, and which program you choose. Most homeowners find a professional program costs less than buying the products and applying them correctly themselves and it removes the risk of mis-timed or over-applied fertilizer that can damage the lawn. Call (913) 829-4949 for a free, no-obligation quote for your specific lawn.
Yes. Along with our standard program, we offer an all-natural / organic-based fertilization option for homeowners who prefer it the same expert timing and weed-control strategy, with products chosen for a more natural approach. Ask us which option fits your lawn and your goals.

The work the lawnmaintenance workers did for us was exceptional. I have many shrubs and bushes and they trimmed everything beautifully. And just as important, they cleaned up all the trimmings _ and there was a lot _ as well as some other yard waste. We so appreciate such good work. Thank you.![]()
