Follow our pro guide to ensure that your lawn stays in top condition throughout the year.

Spring: As the temperatures start to warm up, it's time to prepare your lawn for the growing season. Start by removing any debris or thatch that has accumulated over the winter months. Aerate your lawn to allow for better water and nutrient absorption. Apply a pre-emergent herbicide to prevent weeds from taking over your lawn. Finally, give your grass its first mow of the season, being sure not to cut it too short.

Summer: Summer is the time when your lawn will be at its peak growth. Be sure to water your lawn deeply and infrequently to encourage deep root growth. Fertilize your lawn to keep it healthy and green. Keep an eye out for pests and diseases, and treat them promptly if you notice any issues. Regular mowing is crucial during the summer months, so be sure to keep up with your lawn maintenance.

Fall: As the temperatures start to cool down, it's time to start preparing your lawn for winter. Continue mowing your lawn as needed, but gradually decrease the height of the mower blade. Aerate your lawn again to promote root growth. Overseed any thin or bare areas to ensure a lush lawn next spring. Apply a winter fertilizer to provide your lawn with the nutrients it needs to survive the winter months.

Winter: While your lawn may not require as much maintenance during the winter months, there are still a few things you can do to keep it healthy. Continue to remove any debris or leaves that accumulate on your lawn. Avoid walking on your lawn when it's frozen, as this can cause damage to the grass blades. Keep an eye out for any signs of snow mold or other diseases, and treat them promptly if needed.
