Spring: Spring is the perfect time to jumpstart your lawn care routine. Start by raking away any debris and thatch that has accumulated over the winter months. Aerate your lawn to allow oxygen, water, and nutrients to reach the roots. Apply a fertilizer with a high nitrogen content to promote healthy growth. Reseed any bare patches and water thoroughly.
Summer: Summer can be tough on your lawn, especially in hot and dry climates. Make sure to water your lawn deeply and infrequently to encourage deep root growth. Mow your grass at a higher setting to provide shade for the roots. Watch out for pests and diseases, as they thrive in warm weather. Consider applying a slow-release fertilizer to keep your grass healthy throughout the season.
Fall: As the weather cools down, take the time to prepare your lawn for the winter months. Continue mowing your grass until it stops growing. Remove any leaves and debris to prevent mold and disease. Aerate your lawn again to allow nutrients to penetrate the soil. Apply a winterizing fertilizer to help your grass survive the cold temperatures.
Winter: Even though your grass may be dormant during the winter, there are still some steps you can take to ensure its health come spring. Avoid walking on frozen grass, as it can cause damage. Keep debris off your lawn to prevent mold growth. Consider overseeding to fill in any bare spots. And remember to keep an eye out for any signs of pests or disease that may become active once the weather warms up.
