The change of seasons presents both opportunities and challenges for your lawn. As temperatures rise or fall, different grass types either thrive or decline, potentially leading to weed invasions, bare patches, or disease outbreaks. The first step in successful seasonal transitions involves understanding your specific turf type and the related climate conditions, ensuring you choose the right care practices.
Spring is a crucial time for lawn care as it sets the tone for the rest of the year. As temperatures begin to warm, it’s the perfect time to inspect your lawn for any winter damage. Clearing debris, aerating the soil to allow nutrients to penetrate, and fertilizing with a slow-release formula can help rejuvenate your grass. At DB's Lawn Care, our experts utilize customized fertilization programs that provide your lawn with the precise nutrients it needs to thrive throughout the growing season.
As your lawn moves into summer, maintaining moisture is critical. Summer can bring intense heat and drought conditions, stressing your lawn. Effective watering practices such as deep, infrequent watering help promote deep root growth and resilience. Our team at DB's Lawn Care recommends watering your lawn in the early morning when evaporation rates are low, allowing water to effectively reach the roots.
By the time fall arrives, it's time to prepare your lawn for the colder months ahead. Fall is ideal for overseeding and fertilizing. Overseeding helps fill in sparse areas, and coupled with a high phosphorus fall fertilizer, can encourage strong root growth. A thick, healthy turf is your lawn’s best defense against weeds in the spring. We also suggest removing fallen leaves regularly as they can smother your grass and lead to fungal diseases.
Winter wraps your lawn in a layer of protection by slowing growth. Although this time may seem dormant, the groundwork laid in previous months aids turf retention and readiness for the upcoming spring. DB's Lawn Care recommends maintaining some activity, such as keeping pathways clear and avoiding excess lawn traffic to prevent soil compaction.
