Here are 5 tips to take care of your lawn this winter:
- Put that lawnmower away. When it gets cold, the grass on your lawn stops growing, so there is no need to mow it over the winter, even if it hasn’t snowed yet. During this time, make sure to sharpen your lawnmower blades and get it serviced if you need to.
- If there are still any leaves leftover from fall, rake those up before the first snowfall. Too many leaves will trap moisture and damage your grass.
- This is the time to let your lawn rest, so do not feed or apply treatments during the wintertime. You should feed your lawn for the last time in October.
- Keep off of the lawn as much as possible. Your grass is already going through a lot of stress at this time, and frequent foot traffic can damage the lawn.
- This is the best time to organize your garden shed and make plans for springtime!
