If not, don&#8217;t worry. As leading lawn care experts in Columbus, GA, Lawn Doctor of Columbus-Phenix City has the information you need to prepare your lawn for spring-time growth and fortify it for summer heat and drought. Here are a few must-do tips to follow in the weeks ahead.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Check your soil conditions.<\/strong> Test your soil to check its pH level. If it&#8217;s too acidic or alkaline, you&#8217;ll need to apply different compounds, such as lime or sulfur, to help balance it out. At\u00a0Lawn Doctor of Columbus-Phenix City, we know a soil imbalance\u00a0can lead to a host of issues, so this is just another critical step in spring-time lawn care.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Fertilize your grass.<\/strong> Nourishing your lawn with a slow-release formulation, which delivers a healthy blend of key essentials over an extended period of time, is a must for robust growth. It will also help to replenish your lawn after West Central<strong>\u00a0<\/strong>Georgia&#8217;s\u00a0cooler winter temperatures.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Treat weeds before they emerge.<\/strong> Springtime means more than grass growth, but also weed development. That&#8217;s why it&#8217;s the ideal time to get weeds under control\u00a0before they take root\u00a0by applying a pre-emergent treatment<\/p>\n<p><strong>Mow your lawn. <\/strong>When it comes to mowing, keep your grass blades longer,\u00a0never cutting more than 1\/3 of the height off,\u00a0and mowing more often instead. Mowing your lawn too short will cause stress, making it more susceptible to weeds and diseases.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Get More Lawn Care Help from the Columbus\u00a0Area&#8217;s Experts<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Don&#8217;t\u00a0have the time to take on spring lawn care?
