Seasonal Tips
Spring
- Spread granular, slow-acting fertilizer. (This is optional if you fertilized in
the fall or winter)
- Aerate the lawn to treat compacted soil.
- Mulch with organic matter,
if necessary.
- Sharpen your mower blades at the start of the season.
- Learn the signs of bug infestation, and head them off before they get settled in.
- Water your
lawn weekly if rain is scarce or your soil is poor. Otherwise, water only when rainfall is delayed more than 10 days.
- Treat weeds and bare spots as soon as you see them.
- Sharpen your mower blade again halfway
through the season.
- Water trees and shrubs thoroughly mulched before the
first frost.
- But don’t over water! Plants and shrubs should be expected to look a little brown in
September and October.
- Mulch with organic material, or mow a layer of fallen leaves into the lawn.
- Fertilize your lawn around Thanksgiving to promote strong root growth during winter.
- Cutting
the grass a bit shorter just before winter to prevent its matting under snow.
