Spring
With the arrival of spring, it's time to give your lawn a fresh start after the long winter months. Our experts recommend starting the season by raking away any debris and thatch that has accumulated over the winter. This will allow for better air circulation and promote new growth. It's also a good time to aerate and fertilize your lawn to provide the necessary nutrients for healthy grass.
Summer
In the summer months, proper watering becomes crucial to keep your lawn looking lush and green. Our professionals recommend watering deeply and infrequently to encourage deep root growth. It's also important to mow regularly, but never remove more than one-third of the grass blade in a single cutting. This will help prevent stress on the lawn and promote healthy growth.
Fall
As temperatures start to cool down in the fall, it's time to prepare your lawn for the coming winter. Our team suggests aerating and overseeding to fill in any bare or thin spots in the lawn. It's also important to continue mowing until the grass stops growing, and to clear away leaves and debris to prevent suffocation and disease. Fall is also an ideal time to apply a winterizing fertilizer to help your lawn withstand the cold months ahead.
Winter
During the winter, it's important to protect your lawn from the harsh weather conditions. LJ Lawn & Property Maintenance recommends avoiding walking on frozen grass to prevent damage. It's also a good idea to keep snow cleared from walkways and driveways to prevent ice accumulation. If you have any hardscaping features, such as patios or walkways, it's important to keep them clear of snow and ice to prevent damage.
