Seasonal Lawn Care: Your Year-Round Guide to a Healthy, Vibrant Lawn
Taking care of your lawn isn’t a one-size-fits-all task. Each season brings unique challenges and opportunities to keep your yard looking its best. From nurturing new growth in the spring to protecting your grass through winter, knowing what to do and when can make all the difference.
Here’s your season-by-season guide to maintaining a lawn you’ll love year-round—and how Real Green Lawns can make it easy for you.
1. Spring: Jump-Start Your Lawn’s Growth
Spring is when your lawn wakes up from its winter slumber, and it needs a little TLC to thrive. Here’s what you should focus on:
Clean Up: Remove debris like leaves, branches, and thatch to give your grass room to grow.
Aeration & Overseeding: Loosen compacted soil and plant fresh seeds to repair thinning areas.
Fertilize: Feed your lawn with a nutrient-rich fertilizer to promote healthy growth.
Weed Control: Apply pre-emergent herbicides to prevent weeds from sprouting.

2. Summer: Keep Your Lawn Thriving
The summer heat can be tough on your grass, but with proper care, your lawn can stay green and healthy.
Water Deeply and Early: Water your lawn in the morning to prevent evaporation and strengthen roots.
Mow Smart: Keep your mower blade high to shade soil and reduce stress on your grass.
Treat Weeds: Stay on top of weeds with spot treatments or professional care.
Don’t let summer scorch your lawn! Real Green Lawns can handle fertilizing, weed control, and more to keep your yard in top shape.
3. Fall: Prep Your Lawn for the Cold
Fall is a critical time to strengthen your lawn before winter sets in. Here’s what to do:
Aeration: Loosen compacted soil to help roots absorb nutrients before winter.
Fertilization: Apply a fall-specific fertilizer to give your grass the strength to endure colder months.
Overseeding: Fill in bare spots so your lawn is thick and ready to thrive next spring.
Leaf Cleanup: Don’t let fallen leaves smother your grass—rake regularly or mulch them.

Winter might seem like a time to forget about your lawn, but a little care goes a long way.
Clear the Lawn: Keep your lawn free of heavy objects like toys or debris to avoid dead patches.
De-icing: Use lawn-friendly ice melt on sidewalks to prevent chemical damage to grass.
Plan Ahead: Winter is the perfect time to plan for professional lawn services in the spring.
