With fall upon us and winter just around the corner your lawn needs all the attention you can give it now more than ever. You can easily attain “lawn nirvana” by following the following steps:
1) If you have the need, sprinkle lawn seed and make sure to keep the seeds moist (not too wet)
2) Turf grasses love to be fertilized in the fall but beware of the type of fertilizer you choose. Too much nitrogen is not a good thing!
3) Keeping your grass a bit taller is a great idea in the fall. Grass roots tend to grow as deep as the blade is high so a taller blade = a deeper root system.4).
4) Rake up your leaves. Fallen leaves that are left can lead to insect and disease problems.
5) Avoid walking on lawns once the ice has set in. This can lead to damage to the grass blades.
