The colder months can take a heavy toll on your lawn’s overall health. Shifts in temperature, rainfall, and the availability of the elements your lawn needs to grow can result in lawn diseases, stunted growth, and a whole host of other issues. To maintain your lawn’s health through the year while preparing it for new growth in the spring, it’s crucial to take a few maintenance steps at the end of the year. There are some precautionary measures you can take on your own, and for the rest turn to the spring lawn care trusted by homeowners in the Gadsden, Rainbow City, Southside, Hokes Bluff, and Glencoe, AL areas.
How to Get a Head Start on Spring Lawn Care
There are several steps you can take in the winter toward achieving a healthy lawn as the temperatures start to rise. Here are a few of the ways that you can get a head start on spring lawn care:
Clearing Away Debris. A simple way to keep your lawn healthy that often gets overlooked is simply keeping it clear of debris. Leaf litter, underbrush, and stray branches can cause unsightly spots in your yard by preventing your grass from getting the sunlight and moisture it needs while also creating breeding grounds for insects. Keeping your yard free of clutter is a quick and easy way to keep your lawn healthier through the seasons.
Fertilization & Aeration. Two of the elements that your lawn needs the most to sustain itself are oxygen and nutrients, and these elements can be much harder to come by during the colder months. Fertilization and aeration treatments will give your lawn’s root systems renewed access to these elements, giving it what it needs to sustain itself through the winter and spark new growth when warm weather returns.
