All Seasons Lawn Care Tips and Maintenance Schedule by Seasonscape

General Tips

• Adjust your mower height: Lower in spring and fall, higher in summer. Always consider your local climate and grass type.

• Be cautious with pre-emergent herbicides when seeding new grass. Read labels and plan accordingly.

Spring

Prepare for new growth and warmer weather:

• Prevent mold by clearing debris like sticks, leaves, and mulch. Use a lawn sweeper for efficiency.

• Level uneven areas with a lawn roller.

• Apply pre-emergent herbicide to reduce weeds.

• Aerate compacted soil to prepare for new seed.

• Overseed bare spots.

• Begin mowing once grass actively grows.

• Use a low-nitrogen fertilizer in late spring to boost summer growth.

Summer

Keep your lawn thriving during the heat:

• Apply grub control in early summer.

• Mow regularly to prevent overgrowth. Consider a robotic mower for continuous care.

• Maintain edges with an edger or trimmer.

• Fertilize and control weeds as needed, avoiding dry spells.

• Water deeply but sparingly to encourage strong roots and prevent fungus.

Fall

Prepare your lawn for cooler weather:

• Clear leaves with a blower and bagger.

• Dethatch if necessary.

• Aerate if not done in spring; overseed if needed.

• Apply light fertilizer in early and late fall.

• Raise mower height for the final cut.

• Treat perennial weeds.

Winter

Help your lawn endure the cold:

• Maintain equipment and sharpen mower blades.
