\"girlHave you ever wondered how to get your lawn into great shape in the summer? It all starts with spring yard\u00a0care. That’s the season when you can deliver a variety of treatments and applications to help produce greener, healthier, thicker turf, all with fewer weeds and pests. So where do you begin? Here are just a few lawn care tips for Midland, MI area homeowners to consider:<\/p>\n

Fight disease. <\/strong>Noticing straw-like spots in your lawn that are in the shape of circles? It’s snow mold and a common lawn care problem for Midland area yards. Getting rid of it can be as simple as raking and fluffing up the matted grass so it can dry up due to more air circulation. If grass doesn’t recover, you might need to\u00a0seed the area.<\/p>\n

Fertilize. <\/strong>Michigan winters are tough on lawns and this one was no exception. One effective way to help your lawn recover is with the right fertilizer. Make sure you read the directions on any product you apply and always aim for a lighter treatment in spring when grass is more vulnerable,\u00a0followed by a heavier application in fall.<\/p>\n

Face off against\u00a0weeds. <\/strong>With the right approach, weeds don’t have to become a problem later in the spring and into the summer. In fact, a pre-emergent product will target weed seeds in the ground, as they’re germinating. This then\u00a0stops the development cycle so they don’t sprout up and spread throughout your yard.<\/p>\n

Fix bare spots. <\/strong>If you’re noticing thinning or bare spots in your lawn after winter, spring provides a good time to fix them. If you do, however, don’t apply weed control at the same time, which can damage fresh seed and new growth.<\/p>\n
