Thanks to its lower temperatures and wet conditions, it offers a prime time to infuse your turf with more strength and beauty. In fact, as a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lawndoctor.com\/fairfax-va\/fall_lawn_care_tips\/\">provider of fall lawn care<\/a> across the Fairfax, VA area,\u00a0Lawn Doctor of Fairfax North &amp; South knows treatments at this time of year are particularly important. They will get grass back on track after a season of heat and stress, all while preparing it\u00a0for winter. But where do you begin? With these simple\u00a0steps:<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-left: 40px;\"><strong>Continue with mowing until it goes dormant. <\/strong>As long as your grass is growing, you need to keep mowing it.\u00a0When you do, just make sure you&#8217;re not cutting too short, which can scalp and stress it.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-left: 40px;\"><strong>Add fertilizer to your lawn. <\/strong>Your grass\u00a0requires nutrients\u00a0for deep root growth below and healthy blades up above. Not only that, but a fall treatment will give your yard the energy it needs to make it through winter and emerge greener and stronger in the spring.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-left: 40px;\"><strong>Get the upper hand against weeds.<\/strong> When your yard is stressed in summer, weeds can easily spread. Take a more proactive approach to lawn care with a pre-emergent weed treatment during the Fairfax area&#8217;s fall. This will suppress autumn varieties from getting established and also prevent springtime perennials from spreading.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-left: 40px;\"><strong>Aerate\u00a0your lawn to reduce compaction. <\/strong>During summer, your lawn experiences a lot of foot traffic that can lead to compaction and heavy surface thatch. These prevent roots from getting enough nutrients, air, and water. You can alleviate both through aeration, introducing more critical essentials into the soil.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-left: 40px;\"><strong>Seed your lawn to thicken it up. <\/strong>Whether your lawn is looking weak overall or it has a few bare areas, seeding provides the answer. This will improve turf density, all while boosting natural resistance to weeds and other issues.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Let\u00a0Fairfax&#8217;s Fall Lawn Care Team Help<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Want an easier way to achieve a healthier yard in spring?
