Key Lawn Care Services to Begin in Spring

How do you know where to start with spring lawn care?

Here is a brief overview of what your lawn will need this spring:

Aeration

Aeration is when you perforate the soil to improve airflow, water absorption, and nutrient absorption. This process is particularly beneficial for lawns that are compacted from heavy snow.

Overseeding

Overseeding helps fill in bare or thin patches of grass. It’s best done after aeration to ensure seeds make solid contact with the soil.

Weed and Pest Control

Applying pre-emergent herbicides in early spring keeps weeds at bay, while pest control treatments protect against common lawn pests like grubs.

Regular Mowing and Edging

Once the grass begins growing, regular mowing keeps it at an optimal height. Edging along sidewalks and flowerbeds adds a polished look to your property.

Why Spring Lawn Care is Crucial

Why is it important to start lawn care in the spring?

There are several reasons:

Recovery from Winter Stress

Spring lawn care focuses on reviving grass, repairing damage, and creating a clean slate for growth.

Prevention of Weeds and Pests

Spring is the optimal time to address weeds and pests before they become a problem. Services such as pre-emergent weed control help prevent invasive species like crabgrass from taking over your lawn.

Encouraging Healthy Growth

Proper fertilization, aeration, and overseeding in the spring set the stage for strong roots and vibrant grass. These practices enhance the lawn’s resilience against drought, disease, and foot traffic.

Boosting Curb Appeal

A well-maintained lawn increases the aesthetic value of any property. For homeowners, this means enjoying a beautiful outdoor space and positive impression on your neighbors and visitors.

Professional Lawn Care vs. DIY

 Does your lawn not look the way you want it to, even after all your hard work?

Let’s look at the ways professional lawn care can help alleviate the stress of DIY care.

Challenges of DIY Lawn Care:

● Could apply the wrong type of fertilizer, resulting in uneven, patchy grass.

● Could apply too much fertilizer, which can kill the grass.

● Treatment may not be suited for the current state of the grass.

● Difficult to fertilize without proper equipment.

● Takes hours of manual labor. 

Benefits of Professional Lawn Care:

● Fertilizer is customized to your lawn, including the specific nutrients that will target weeds like crabgrass and broadleaf, as well as insects like grubs.

● Professional equipment that ensures consistent treatment.

● Testing of soil available upon request to determine the exact state of your lawn and what it needs.

Do I Need to Aerate My Lawn? When to Hire a Professional Lawn Care Company

Aeration is a technique that loosens compacted soil, allowing for air, water and fertilizer to reach the grass at its roots. Special tools (mechanized or manual) perforate the lawn with small, uniform holes that allow elements to move freely through the soil without damaging the grass’ roots.

If you’re going to fertilize your lawn, apply weed control or seed, it is important to aerate your lawn. For fertilizer and weed control, aeration is essential for allowing those compounds to spread evenly throughout the soil. In the case of applying seed, you’ll want to aerate in order to ensure the seeds have ample room for root growth.

Your lawn may be especially need aeration if it gets heavy traffic, originated from sod, has a spongy feel or if your home is newly constructed. Any of these factors can contribute to heavy compaction soil or the stripping of essential layers. For more information, contact the experts at Ever So Green at 517-518-8523.
