However, with the right tools and know-how, these effects are reversible. Implementing effective spring lawn care strategies requires precision, so be sure to consult the team of lawn care professionals at\u00a0Lawn Doctor of Royal Oak\/Birmingham &amp; Lawn Doctor of Southfield\/Farmington before getting started. Here are three strategies to help you bring your lawn back to green this spring:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-102 \" src=\"https:\/\/www.lawndoctor.com\/royal-oak-mi\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/54\/2016\/01\/fertilization-249x300.png\" alt=\"springtime lawn care royal oak lawn doctor mascot\" width=\"201\" height=\"242\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lawndoctor.com\/royal-oak-mi\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/54\/2016\/01\/fertilization-249x300.png 249w, https:\/\/www.lawndoctor.com\/royal-oak-mi\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/54\/2016\/01\/fertilization.png 362w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 201px) 100vw, 201px\" \/>Nutrient Replacement.\u00a0<\/strong>Dropped temperatures and snowfall can cause your lawn to quickly burn through its energy stores, leaving it depleted when spring comes. To bring your lawn back up to ideal nutrient density, you&#8217;ll need to fertilize it. Fertilization will improve your lawn&#8217;s nutrient composition to promote healthy growth, but make sure to apply even, accurate treatments to ensure effectiveness.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Seeding.\u00a0<\/strong>The patches left in the wake of cold weather can be tricky to fill in. Power Seeding or overseeding are effective practices to address these unsightly spots. To avoid competing plants and ensure complete germination, make sure to measure out precise seed application and apply diligent follow-up treatments.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Pest Prevention.\u00a0<\/strong>When the snow melts, we can often find dead leaf litter and standing water sources left behind. These conditions roll out the welcome mat for pests, so be sure to tidy up your lawn before spring to cut down on potential breeding grounds.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p data-qtag-num=\"Q30919478\"><strong>Give\u00a0Lawn Doctor of Royal Oak\/Birmingham &amp; Lawn Doctor of Southfield\/Farmington a call\u00a0at (248) 439-0072 to learn how we can help you implement these and other spring lawn care strategies.
