Frequently Asked Questions

What does “season long” mean?

Every Green Drop program includes season long fertilizer and weed control. You will receive a minimum of 5 visits approximately every 4 to 6 weeks throughout the growing season. Our programs are fully guaranteed, so if the results are not meeting your expectations, we will return at no charge. If you sign up for a package mid-season you may receive fewer visits. Our package pricing at the time of purchase is reflective of the number of services we have time to complete for the remainder of the season.

Are your products safe for my kids and pets?

Absolutely! Green Drop only uses Health Canada approved products when and where they are needed. Some products are sticky, so we recommend staying off the lawn until it is dry–usually in two hours.

When does your season start/end?

Our season is at the mercy of Mother Nature, but we do our best to visit your yard as soon as possible each year. In general terms our season begins in April and concludes in October.

Do I need to clean up my yard first?

Excess debris, leaves, toys, etc. can affect our ability to complete your application. A clean yard helps us provide the best possible service to our subscribers.

Your GreenKeeper was only here for a few minutes; did they do my entire lawn?

GreenKeepers are trained to apply the perfect amount of product per yard, every time. Green Drop has this down to a science. An average residential application only takes a short time to complete. Front & back yards are always done, unless otherwise specified.

My weeds aren’t dying. Can you come back?

Of course! If pesky weeds are still present ten days after an application, we will return at no charge to take care of them. Service calls are always free!

My application was done in the rain. Will my application still be effective?

Yes! Fertilizer loves water and it will actually benefit the application. Weed control results will depend on the type and severity of the rain. If you feel that your application has not provided the desired result simply contact us and we will return at no extra cost.

When can I mow my lawn after an application?

Once you have had time to water in the application, feel free to lay down those stripes! Remember, mowing your lawn at 2½ to 3 inches will produce the happiest, healthiest lawn in town.
