Fall is the perfect time to get your lawn back in shape. Summer heat, foot traffic, and pests certainly take their toll, but with help from Blue Duck Lawn Care your lawn can bounce back. So, here are our top three steps to achieving a beautiful fall lawn.
Aerating your lawn is one of the best ways to promote growth and keep your lawn healthy. Aeration involves poking small holes in the soil to allow for air, water, and nutrients to reach the roots. This will help keep your lawn looking green and healthy all fall long. We also offer liquid aeration and clay soil programs designed to penetrate deep into the soil to promote healthy roots and new growth.
Seeding is another important step in achieving a beautiful fall lawn. Seeding in the fall can either be widespread or localized to fill in bare spots. In fact, fall is the best time to plant new grass since the soil is moist and rich. However, we recommend seeding your lawn in the early fall, before the first frost. Frost can damage new seedlings, so make sure to time it right!
Fertilization is also key to keeping your lawn healthy in the fall. Furthermore, fertilizing in the fall gives new grass the nutrients it needs to sprout before winter. Plus, when the soil is rich in nitrogen and the grass is thick, weeds tend to have a hard time sprouting. Lastly, make sure to water your lawn regularly, especially during dry spells, to keep it hydrated.
