If you don&#8217;t, you&#8217;re setting it up for issues with mold and fungus,\u00a0pests and weeds,\u00a0and weak growth down the line. To avoid this, some steps to follow include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Cutting your lawn a little shorter. <\/strong>If you haven&#8217;t performed the final cut for the season, mow a bit shorter when you do. You ultimately want grass height to be anywhere from\u00a02 to 2\u00bd inches. This keeps it long enough so it&#8217;s not stressed, but short enough to expose it to more light and reduce the chance of a snow mold infection.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Raking up leaves and removing debris. <\/strong>When your lawn is covered in leaves or toys are sitting on top of it, this can cause wet, dark conditions that are ideal for fungus and pests. At the same time, these also stop sunlight from reaching your lawn, impacting the amount of energy it can produce and store up.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Dealing with spring weeds now.<\/strong> Weeds might not be top-of-mind for you right now. However, seeds are already in your yard and will germinate if you don&#8217;t treat them. A pre-emergent product can provide the suppression you need, so seeds don&#8217;t develop into mature plants.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong>Serving\u00a0Hillsborough with Lawn Maintenance Tips &amp; Treatments<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;d like a professional hand with your lawn, let\u00a0Lawn Doctor of Bridgewater help.\u00a0We understand what turf grasses common in the\u00a0Hillsborough area\u00a0need and which maintenance steps and treatments will protect them for the harsh winter ahead.
