Spring
As the weather warms up and your lawn starts to come back to life, it's essential to give it a little extra care. Start by aerating and dethatching your lawn to promote healthy root growth. This will also help water, air, and nutrients penetrate the soil more effectively. It's also a good idea to overseed any thin or bare spots in your lawn to encourage new grass growth.
Summer
The heat of summer can take a toll on your lawn, so be sure to water it regularly. Deep, infrequent watering is best, as it encourages deep root growth and helps your lawn withstand drought conditions. Mow your lawn at the proper height – never remove more than 1/3 of the grass blade in a single mowing. This will help prevent stress on your lawn and keep it looking its best.
Fall
Fall is the perfect time to give your lawn some extra TLC before the winter months. Aerate and overseed your lawn once again to promote healthy growth in the spring. Be sure to rake up any leaves that fall on your lawn, as they can smother the grass and promote disease. Consider applying a fall fertilizer to help your lawn build strong roots for the winter.
Winter
While your lawn may be dormant during the winter, there are still a few things you can do to help it stay healthy. Avoid walking on frost-covered grass, as this can damage the delicate blades. Keep pathways clear of snow and ice to prevent damage to your lawn when the snow melts. And finally, if you have any winter weeds popping up, be sure to tackle them early to prevent them from spreading.
