You’re busy getting ready for the holiday season. But are you also getting your lawn ready for the cold winter weather? If not, it could get damaged in the months ahead. The good news is that Lawn Doctor of Southern Cape May County is here to help. As a top choice for spring lawn care in the Cape May, NJ area, we have the tips and treatments your turf needs to protect it during winter and promote excellent growth and color come spring. Here’s a look at how we recommend doing that.
What Lawn Care Steps You Can Take to Create a Strong Comeback in Spring
Are leaves covering your lawn? Are there wood piles from your fire pit and furniture still out? These block sunlight and lock in moisture, creating conditions that are ideal for pests and diseases to invade and attack. That’s why cleaning up your yard is so important. Make sure you rake up all those leaves, branches, and twigs, and store toys, furniture, and anything else covering up grass.
Winter in the Cape May area is the time of year when your lawn goes dormant, requiring less care than in spring or other times of the year. However, since it’s not growing, your lawn is more susceptible to stress from foot traffic. So try to minimize it as much as you can. Also, be mindful when you’re salting. While this protects you and your family from slips and falls, it can be damaging to your grass.
How Our Cape May Spring Lawn Care Experts Can Make a Difference in Your Yard
In addition to the steps above, there are some lawn care treatments that can set your turf up for more success in the spring and Lawn Doctor of Southern Cape May County can deliver them. For instance, a few you can take advantage of include:
Fertilization. We’ll fuel your lawn with a custom-blended, nutrient-rich product that helps it store up ample energy for winter and come roaring back to life next spring.
Weed control. Even though it’s growing colder, some weeds might still be populating your lawn. We’ll suppress them all, as well as limit new ones from emerging in the next growing season.
pH balancing. If the level is off, it hinders nutrient uptake, which is a problem especially heading into winter. We’ll test it and provide needed amendments, like lime.
