Spring is the perfect time to give your lawn the attention it needs after the winter months. With the right care and maintenance, you can ensure your yard thrives throughout the summer.
1. Clean Up and Rake
Start by removing any debris, dead leaves, and branches that have accumulated over winter. Raking helps remove thatch and allows air and water to reach the soil.
2. Aerate Your Lawn
Aeration helps relieve soil compaction and allows nutrients, water, and air to reach the roots. Use a core aerator for best results.
3. Apply Fertilizer
Choose a spring fertilizer with a balanced ratio of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. Apply it evenly across your lawn for optimal growth.
