Fall is the time for pumpkin carving and football games. It’s also the time for Doylestown, PA\u00a0area homeowners to perform some critical lawn care tasks to ensure a beautiful, healthy lawn in spring. Not only that, but the better you prepare your lawn for fall now, the less energy and work you’ll have to give your yard come spring and summer.<\/p>\n
To help you in the process, here’s a look at some must-do autumn lawn care tasks:<\/p>\n
Clean up your lawn.<\/strong> When leaves start falling into your lawn and garden beds, they create a perfect breeding ground for all kinds of mold and fungus. That’s why it’s so important to rake leaves and keep your lawn clear of debris throughout fall.<\/p>\n Keep up with mowing.<\/strong>\u00a0Fall doesn’t mean you can start slacking on mowing your lawn and keeping it maintained. However, in fall \u2013 especially later in the season \u2013 you can actually start cutting your lawn a little shorter than you would in spring and summer. This will minimize the browning leaf blades you’ll see in winter and also open up the crown of the grass plant to more sunlight.<\/p>\n Aerate and fertilize your lawn. <\/strong>At Lawn Doctor of Doylestown, we know that if your soil is compacted, it can lead to a host of lawn care problems, such as weak growth and poor color. However, aerating the soil opens it up to more nutrients, water, and oxygen. Aerating in fall also means your lawn will have time to fill in holes before temperatures drop.<\/p>\n Likewise, once you aerate your lawn, fertilize it to deliver key nutrients. This will help your lawn store up essentials, and grow in greener and stronger in the spring.<\/p>\n Seed your lawn.<\/strong> Fall is an ideal time to perform seeding, whether you’re noticing thinning spots or just want to thicken up your grass overall. That’s because, in autumn, seeds have enough time to take root and develop in soil that’s still warm from summer, before cold temperatures hit.<\/p>\n Clean up and dry off\u00a0lawn care equipment\u00a0and garden tools. <\/strong>Before you store them in the shed for winter, make sure you dry off your hoses and sprinklers. In addition, don’t just throw your gardening tools on a shelf until spring. Clean them off and get them organized so they’re ready for use again.<\/p>\n Fall lawn care is just as important as spring and summer care.
