But that doesn&#8217;t mean it&#8217;s time to leave lawn care behind. In fact, autumn is an ideal season to deliver a few key treatments that will reap beautiful results next spring. And at\u00a0Lawn Doctor of Princeton, we&#8217;re here to help along the way. As <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lawndoctor.com\/princeton-nj\/fall_lawn_care_tips\/\">fall lawn care experts<\/a> in the Princeton, NJ area, below are a few recommendations to\u00a0revive your turf after\u00a0summer stress, prepare it for a harsh New Jersey winter ahead, and dazzle you during the next growing season:<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-left: 40px;\"><strong>Rake and remove leaf piles. <\/strong>Stay on top of this task throughout autumn. If you don&#8217;t, leaves will pile up and cause wet, dark conditions that can lead to diseases and insect infestations. Likewise, your lawn won&#8217;t receive adequate sunlight when there&#8217;s a thick layer of leaves on top.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-left: 40px;\"><strong>Mow to the right height. <\/strong>When you&#8217;re mowing, make sure you&#8217;re not scalping your lawn. This can lead to stress heading into winter. Instead, keep grass to around three inches in height. When your grass is a little longer, it will also capture more sunlight, so it can make more food.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-left: 40px;\"><strong>Aerate dense or compressed soil. <\/strong>Fall in the Princeton area\u00a0is a good time to add aeration to your list of lawn care chores\u00a0since soil often becomes compressed during summer due to high foot traffic. When you aerate, not only will you loosen dense soil, but also get more nutrients and water to reach roots.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-left: 40px;\"><strong>Fertilize to fuel beautiful growth. <\/strong>Nourishing your lawn will help to fuel better development since your lawn will have more energy reserves to survive winter and green-up faster in the spring.\u00a0When you fertilize, just make sure you do so before it gets too cold out.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Let\u00a0Princeton&#8217;s Fall Lawn Care Team Help<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Want professional help with your yard during the autumn season?
