Mow Your Lawn to an Appropriate Height
Make sure to be mowing your lawn regularly. We encourage you to do this every week as long as your grass is continuing to grow. Don’t cut it too short or it might struggle to grow.
Reseed Bare Patches
Properly reseed any gaps you may have in your lawn. Gaps are completely normal and doing a reseed project will typically bring them back to life.
Fertilize
Fertilizing your yard will help it keep its beautiful, vibrant green color. It will also make the soil plentiful in necessary nutrients giving your grass a better shot at growing tall and strong.
Plant Summer Flowers
Bring some color to your backyard by planting your favorite summer flower. You could also try your hand at planting herbs – great for those who love to cook or make a summer cocktail.
Aerate Your Lawn
The best time to aerate your lawn is the spring! Doing so will improve the air exchange between soil and atmosphere ensuring your grass is able to absorb any hydration or fertilizer.
Trim Back Trees and Shrubs
Trimming back any trees or shrubs is the perfect final touch to get your backyard ready for summer. Everything flourishes in the springtime so make sure to keep your shrubs under control during the summer months.
