Now that winter is finally ending, it’s time to think about lawn care. Spring fertilizer is a great way to help your lawn recover from the harsh cold weather. Fertilizer supplies your grass with nutrients that help it thrive. It helps build a foundation of deep root systems while also improving thickness and color. Let’s go over the advantages that fertilizer provides.

Benefits of Spring Fertilizer

Fertilizer has many benefits for your property. This service can improve water absorption and encourage a healthy ecosystem. Regular fertilizer treatments will reduce weeds and your lawn will be more resilient to disease. The best defense against weeds is thick grass. We recommend a seven step fertilizer program that starts in early spring and ends in winter. The first treatment is the Early Spring application. This will help your grass recover from the harsh winter. It also helps prevent new weeds from growing. The second treatment is the Late Spring application. This gets your lawn ready for summer and adds more pre-emergent to fight new weeds. Spring fertilizer can help your lawn bounce back after a cold winter. Contact a professional lawn care company to apply the correct amount of fertilizer.

Other Spring Services

Another service that starts in the spring is mowing. A consistent height will help your grass thrive. If your grass is left too tall, it can attract bugs and pests. Your lawn could burn and become brittle if your grass is too short. Typically a professional lawn care company follows the one-third rule when mowing your lawn, which means the top one-third of grass is cut. Cutting more than a third of your lawn can damage your turf and cause health and appearance issues. Contact a professional lawn care company to get a reliable mowing service.
