Spring

Spring Spring is the season when a yard really needs some tender loving care as temperatures rise and the grass begins to grow, increasing its reliance on water and fertilizer.



Spring: Lay Sod and Sow Seed Early spring is a great time for planting turf because the possibility of frost is lower, making the soil more workable. Spring is also the ideal time for sowing seed as the soil warms up and rainy days speed germination. Learn how to lay sod and sow grass seed.



Spring: Fertilize A spring feed is essential to maintain the yard looking green. There are lots of pre-packaged feeds available; whichever one you choose ensure that the primary ingredient is nitrogen, which promotes strong growth.



Spring: Water, If Needed Toward the end of spring it could be required to water sometimes if the last few months are dry.



Spring: Mow Regularly Cut the grass once weekly, ensuring that the machine is raised to its highest setting (approximately 1 inch) for the first few cuts. Get more mowing hints.



Spring: Scarify to Remove Thatch Gently scarify the lawn, with a spring-tined rake or a mechanical scarifier to remove dead grass, also called thatch. Know more about the lawn tools used for aeration.



Spring: Aerate Use a pitchfork or aerator to spike the yard, this allows air to circulate into the grass roots and breaks up compacted soil.



Summer Summer is the time when marijuana is at its most worried, which means that some lawn care methods, such as scarifying or aerating, ought to be avoided in times of drought.



Summer: Feed If needed, lawns can receive another dose of fertilizer throughout the summer, but only if rain is predicted. In extremely dry or hot weather compost will scorch and stress the lawn. Instead to granular fertilizer, liquid packs, such as kelp tonics, may be implemented.



Summer: Water To maintain the lawn looking green through a humid summer, it could be necessary to wash it either having an irrigation system or manually with a garden hose or sprinkler. But, lawns can recuperate quickly from drought, so to conserve water, try to avoid watering except in extreme circumstances.



Summer: Mow When Required Lawns will need mowing once or twice a week, although this should be stopped during extremely dry periods.



Summer: Remove Weeds Remove pernicious weeds, such as dandelions, by squeezing them out of the floor, taking care to eliminate the whole root. Others, like speedwell, clovers and daisies, usually require spraying to eliminate them ; nonetheless, this should be avoided during periods of drought.



Fall Autumn is the key season for yard renovations. Fall care will help to guarantee that the grass conveys the low temperatures of the winter. It is going to also aid the lawn to recuperate from heavy use during spring and summer.



Fall: Remove Leaves Once you've raked up fallen leaves, shred them with a rotary mower then put them into the compost.



Fall: Compost Leaves Leaves that fall onto the lawn must be raked up and removed to avoid the lawn from perishing back due to absence of light. On the other hand, the fallen leaves can readily be transformed into a rich, healthy leaf mold that is an excellent soil conditioner for shade-loving plants in beds and is also a fantastic addition to potting soil mixes. Learn how to quickly compost leaves.



Fall: Fertilize Whereas spring feeds are high in nitrogen to promote the yard to rise, the important ingredient in fall fertilizer combinations is potassium since this encourages strong growth and will toughen the grass for winter.



Fall: Aerate The yard ought to be spiked down to about 3 to 4 inches using a pitchfork or a mechanical aerator. Strong tining ought to be performed every year, and about every three or four years hollow tining, shown above, can be performed instead.



Fall: Apply Top-Dressing Distribute a fantastic excellent top-dressing evenly over the yard then brush it in the holes made by aerating; ensuring it's all brushed in, otherwise it'll kill the grass. Commercial mixes can be bought, but you can create your own by mixing sand, good quality compost and loam.



Fall: Lay Sod and Sow Seed This is a good time to put turf or seed the yard because the soil will probably be warm. This should also allow plenty of time for the yard to establish itself until the onset of winter. Patches can be returfed, and hollows and bumps smoothed out. Little, bare patches are covered by sowing grass seed.



Fall: Scarify to Remove Thatch Utilize a spring-tined rake or a mechanical scarifier to rip the thatch out of the lawn. Scarify in two directions, the second time deeper than the original; this scarification needs to be more vigorous than the spring scarification. Rake up all the removed thatch and add it into the compost heap.



Winter There is little to do with the yard during winter while grass is dormant. If you can, avoid walking during frosty periods because this may leave black marks where the grass will gradually die back.



Winter: Clear Any Remaining Leaves In mild conditions any residual fallen leaves must be eliminated because they block out the light, killing the lawn. Leaves may be pumped up with a mower or raked up and added to the mulch pile.
