At Just Mow and Go Lawn Service, we have years of experience in lawn care and want to share some seasonal tips with our valued customers to help keep your lawn looking its best year-round.

Spring is a critical time for your lawn as it starts to wake up from the winter dormancy. Here are a few tips to get your lawn ready for the spring season:

1. Start with a good spring clean-up by removing any debris, thatch, and dead leaves to allow sunlight and air to reach the soil. 2. Aerate your lawn to improve soil compaction and allow water and nutrients to penetrate easily. 3. Overseed bare patches to encourage new grass growth and fill in any thin areas. 4. Apply a slow-release fertilizer to help promote healthy growth throughout the season.

Once summer rolls around, your lawn will be in full swing and will require some special care to thrive in the heat. Here are some tips to keep your lawn healthy during the summer months:

1. Water deeply and infrequently to promote deep root growth and drought tolerance. 2. Mow at the correct height for your grass type to prevent stress and encourage healthy growth. 3. Monitor for pests and diseases and treat as necessary to prevent damage to your lawn. 4. Avoid mowing when the grass is wet to prevent disease spread and damage to the grass blades.

As fall approaches, it's time to start preparing your lawn for the upcoming winter months. Here are some tips to help your lawn transition smoothly into the fall season:

1. Continue mowing as needed until the grass stops growing, but gradually lower the height of the mower blade to prepare for winter. 2. Rake up fallen leaves to prevent matting and suffocation of the grass underneath. 3. Fertilize with a winterizing fertilizer to help your lawn store nutrients for the winter and bounce back strong in the spring. 4. Overseed in the fall to fill in any bare spots and promote healthy growth next spring.
