đŸŒ± Early Spring Lawn Prep: Get Your Grass Ready for a Lush Season! đŸŒ±

As winter fades and temperatures rise, it’s time to wake up your lawn and set it up for a green, healthy growing season. A little early spring prep can make all the difference in achieving a lush, weed-free yard this year. Here’s what you need to do:


1ïžâƒŁ Clean Up & Assess the Lawn

đŸ§č Remove leaves, twigs, and debris to allow sunlight and air to reach the grass.🔍 Check for dead spots, disease, or winter damage so you can address issues early.


2ïžâƒŁ Apply a Pre-Emergent Herbicide

đŸš« Stop weeds before they sprout! A pre-emergent application in early spring helps prevent crabgrass and other invasive weeds from taking over.


3ïžâƒŁ Start Fertilizing (But Not Too Soon!)

đŸ’Ș Early spring fertilization provides essential nutrients, but don’t overdo it! Too much nitrogen too soon can encourage fast top growth without strong roots.


4ïžâƒŁ Tune Up Your Mower

🔧 A sharp blade makes clean cuts, reducing stress on your grass. Get your mower serviced before the first cut of the season.


5ïžâƒŁ Water Wisely

💩 Start monitoring soil moisture—your lawn needs about 1 inch of water per week, but early spring rainfall often provides enough.


6ïžâƒŁ Get a Lawn Care Plan in Place

📅 Sign up for a professional lawn care program like Turf Geeks KC to ensure your lawn gets the right treatments at the right time!

By tackling these early spring lawn prep steps, you’ll be setting up your yard for a beautiful, healthy season ahead! 🌿💚
