Preparing Your Lawn for Spring With This Guide

Spring is on the horizon, and now is the perfect time to start preparing your lawn for a fresh, healthy season. A little work now can lead to a lush, green yard you’ll be proud of in the warmer months ahead. At Pusher’s Lawn Care and Landscaping, we’re here to guide you through the process—and even take some of the hard work off your hands!

Here’s what you can do now to get your lawn spring-ready.

1. Clear Away Winter Debris

After winter, your lawn is often covered with leaves, sticks, and other debris that can smother grass and prevent healthy growth.

• What You Can Do: Rake up leaves, pick up fallen branches, and remove any leftover snow mold.
• How We Can Help: Our lawn cleanup services ensure your yard is spotless and ready to thrive.

2. Test and Improve Your Soil

Healthy grass starts with healthy soil. Testing your soil can reveal whether it needs more nutrients, better pH balance, or organic matter.

• What You Can Do: Pick up a soil testing kit and check for deficiencies. Add compost or soil amendments as needed.
• How We Can Help: Let our team handle fertilization and soil treatments to create the ideal growing environment for your grass.

3. Address Bare Spots with Over-Seeding

Bare patches in your lawn can invite weeds or pests. Over-seeding helps fill in these spots with fresh, healthy grass.

• What You Can Do: Choose the right grass seed for your lawn and overseed those problem areas.
• How We Can Help: With our aeration and over-seeding services, we’ll rejuvenate your entire yard for a uniform, lush look.

4. Schedule Aeration to Loosen Soil

Compacted soil can choke your lawn by blocking air, water, and nutrients from reaching the roots. Aeration opens up the soil, promoting healthy growth.

• What You Can Do: Rent an aerator or hire professionals to perform this crucial task.
• How We Can Help: Our aeration services ensure your lawn gets the care it needs to thrive.

5. Get Ahead of Weed Control

Weeds are easier to stop before they sprout. Applying a pre-emergent herbicide now can prevent crabgrass and other weeds from taking over in the spring.

• What You Can Do: Spread a high-quality pre-emergent herbicide on your lawn early in the season.
• How We Can Help: We’ll apply the right treatments at the right time to keep weeds at bay.

6. Mulch and Protect Your Beds

Fresh mulch not only enhances your landscape’s appearance but also helps retain soil moisture and regulate temperature.

• What You Can Do: Add a fresh layer of mulch to your flower beds and around trees.
• How We Can Help: Our mulching services save you time and effort while giving your yard a polished look.

7. Tune Up Your Irrigation System

A properly functioning irrigation system is essential for keeping your lawn hydrated when spring arrives.

• What You Can Do: Test your system for leaks, clogs, or broken sprinkler heads.
• How We Can Help: Our team offers irrigation maintenance and repair services to ensure your system is ready to go.
