Spring: - As the weather warms up, it’s time to start prepping your lawn for the growing season. Begin by raking away any debris and thatch to allow for better air circulation and water absorption. - Aerate your lawn to reduce compaction and promote healthy root growth. - Apply a pre-emergent weed killer to prevent weeds from taking over your lawn. - Start mowing your lawn regularly but make sure to only cut one-third of the grass height at a time.
Summer: - Keep up with your mowing schedule, but adjust the height of your mower to leave the grass a bit longer to help retain moisture. - Water your lawn deeply and infrequently to encourage deep root growth. Early morning is the best time to water your lawn. - Fertilize your lawn with a slow-release fertilizer to keep it healthy and green throughout the summer. - Keep an eye out for pests and diseases and treat them promptly to prevent damage to your lawn.
Fall: - Continue mowing your lawn as needed but gradually lower the cutting height as the grass growth slows down. - Overseed your lawn to repair any bare patches and thicken up the turf. - Keep up with your watering schedule until the first frost. - Rake up fallen leaves to prevent them from smothering your lawn and causing disease.
Winter: - While your lawn may not require as much maintenance in the winter, it’s important to continue taking care of it. - Avoid walking on frozen grass to prevent damage. - Keep an eye out for snow mold and treat it if necessary. - Plan any landscaping projects for the upcoming spring while the winter months give you time to prepare.
