As the seasons change, so do the needs of your lawn. At 4 Brothers Landscaping LLC, we understand the importance of year-round lawn care to maintain a healthy and vibrant outdoor space. With our expert knowledge and experience in landscaping and hardscaping services, we have gathered some strategies to help you keep your lawn green and lush throughout the year.

Spring:

As the weather warms up and the days get longer, spring is the perfect time to rejuvenate your lawn after the winter months. Start by cleaning up any debris, thatch, or leaves that have accumulated over the winter. Aeration and dethatching can help improve soil drainage and promote healthy root growth. Consider overseeding to fill in any bare patches and promote a thick, lush lawn.

Summer:

In the heat of summer, it is important to adjust your lawn care routine to protect your grass from drought and heat stress. Proper watering is essential, so be sure to water deeply and infrequently to encourage deep root growth. Mowing at the correct height can also help shade the soil and retain moisture. Fertilize your lawn with a slow-release nitrogen fertilizer to promote healthy growth without burning the grass.

Fall:

As the temperatures cool down, fall is the time to prepare your lawn for the winter months ahead. Continue mowing your lawn until the grass stops growing, and keep leaves and debris off the lawn to prevent suffocation. Consider aerating and overseeding again in the fall to promote strong root growth and ensure a healthy lawn next spring.

Winter:

While your lawn may be dormant during the winter, there are still important steps you can take to keep it healthy. Avoid walking on frozen grass, as this can damage the blades and create bare spots. Clear snow from walkways and driveways to prevent ice buildup that can harm your grass. Consider scheduling a professional winter maintenance service to keep your lawn in top condition.
