If not, you could wind up paying for it this summer with more weeds and pests, along with weak growth and color. If, however, you&#8217;re up for the job, then there are some simple steps you can take now to ensure a spring and summer-time season of beauty and enjoyment. And as leading experts in lawn care in and around the Hanover, MA area,\u00a0Lawn Doctor of South Shore is here to help. Below\u00a0are just a few tips to put to use in your lawn this <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lawndoctor.com\/southshore-ma\/lawn_care_tips\/\">spring for a better growing season<\/a> in the months ahead:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Fertilize.<\/strong> Feeding your lawn is one of the best steps you can take to improve its overall health and vitality. This not only enables it to recover from the\u00a0long, cold South Shore, Massachusetts\u00a0winter, but prepares it for the hot summer ahead.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Overseed. <\/strong>As spring lawn care experts, we know that bare patches are inevitable in every lawn in the Hanover area. The good news is that you can easily deal with them by overseeding. This will promote new growth in bald or thinning spots, without tearing up existing turf.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Mow. <\/strong>With grass growing, you&#8217;ll need to break out your mower and start to maintain blade height. When you do, just make sure you don&#8217;t cut too short. Doing so will weaken grass\u00a0over time by depleting energy reserves. Also keep some clippings on your lawn for an added dose of key nutrients.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Aerate and de-thatch. <\/strong>When soil is compacted and there&#8217;s a heavy layer of thatch, roots can&#8217;t absorb what&#8217;s needed in the form of oxygen, nutrients, and water. But by\u00a0de-thatching and aerating your lawn, you can open up your lawn, all for\u00a0better growth.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Prevent weeds. <\/strong>Weeds not only look ugly, but crowd out grass and compete with your lawn for nutrition and water. That&#8217;s where\u00a0a pre-emergent treatment can help. With it,\u00a0you can suppress weeds in the spring, before they break through the soil surface, so you see far fewer later in spring and summer.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Ready for Professional Spring Lawn Care Help from the Hanover Area&#8217;s Experts?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;re like many homeowners in and around the Hanover area, you&#8217;re busy and don&#8217;t have time for all these spring lawn care tasks.
