As the seasons change and the weather fluctuates, it is important to adjust your lawn care routine to ensure that your yard remains healthy and vibrant. At Kerr’s Lawn Care, we understand the unique needs of each season and are here to provide you with expert tips on how to keep your yard flourishing all year round with our professional touch.

Spring is a critical time for your lawn as it emerges from the winter and enters a period of rapid growth. At Kerr’s Lawn Care, we recommend starting the season by dethatching and aerating your lawn to promote healthy root growth and improve water penetration. Additionally, applying a high-quality fertilizer will help nourish your grass and encourage lush, green growth. Be sure to mow your lawn regularly, but never remove more than one-third of the grass blades at a time to prevent stress on the plants.

As summer approaches, it is important to adjust your lawn care routine to accommodate the hotter temperatures and increased sunlight. Kerr’s Lawn Care suggests watering your lawn deeply but infrequently to encourage deep root growth and improve drought resistance. Be sure to mow your lawn at a higher setting to provide shade for the roots and help retain moisture. It is also essential to regularly inspect your yard for weeds and treat them promptly to prevent them from spreading and taking over.

Fall is a crucial time to prepare your lawn for the winter months ahead. Kerr’s Lawn Care recommends raking up leaves and debris to prevent them from smothering your grass and inhibiting growth. Aeration and overseeding can also help rejuvenate your lawn and fill in any bare spots. Applying a winterizing fertilizer will provide essential nutrients to your grass and help protect it from the harsh winter conditions.

Winter may seem like a time to neglect your lawn, but there are still steps you can take to ensure it remains healthy throughout the season. Kerr’s Lawn Care suggests avoiding walking on frozen grass to prevent damage to the plants. It is also important to keep an eye out for signs of pests and disease, as they can be more prevalent in the winter months. Finally, don't forget to clear snow promptly to prevent it from compacting and suffocating your grass.
