Maintaining a lush and vibrant lawn requires proper care and attention throughout the year. At America's Top Pick Lawn & Landscaping, we understand the importance of regular maintenance to keep your lawn looking its best. That's why we've put together a comprehensive maintenance schedule, designed by our top professionals, to help you achieve the lawn of your dreams.
Spring: As the temperatures start to warm up, it's time to kickstart your lawn care routine. In the spring, focus on tasks such as dethatching and aerating your lawn to promote healthy root growth. You'll also want to apply a high-quality, slow-release fertilizer to provide essential nutrients to your grass.
Summer: With the heat of summer in full swing, it's important to adjust your maintenance routine accordingly. Regularly mow your lawn, keeping the grass height between 2.5 to 3 inches. Be sure to water deeply and infrequently, allowing the soil to dry out between watering sessions. This will encourage the roots to grow deeper, resulting in a more drought-resistant lawn.
Fall: As the leaves start to change color and the temperatures drop, it's time to prepare your lawn for the winter months ahead. Continue mowing until the grass stops growing, gradually reducing the height with each cut. Remove any fallen leaves promptly to prevent suffocating the grass. Fall is also a great time to overseed your lawn to fill in any bare patches and promote new growth.
Winter: While lawn care may not be at the top of your mind during the winter, there are still a few important tasks to address. Keep an eye on any snow mold or ice buildup and take steps to prevent damage. Avoid walking on the lawn when it's covered in snow to prevent compaction. Regularly clear away any debris that may have accumulated, such as fallen branches or trash.
In addition to following our maintenance schedule, there are a few general tips that can help you maintain a healthy lawn year-round. First, make sure to properly sharpen your lawnmower blades to prevent tearing or damaging the grass. Second, be mindful of the amount of foot traffic your lawn receives and take steps to protect high-traffic areas. Lastly, regularly monitor your lawn for signs of pests or diseases and take appropriate actions.
