The earliest stages in Spring are the best time to help your lawn recover from the long and cold Winter months. Fertilizer and Crabgrass Preventer are the best lawn care applications in the early Spring. Slow release fertilizer promotes growth and strength and Crabgrass Preventer helps stop the early stages of Crabgrass germination.
The most effective fertilizer is a slow release, high nitrogen granular fertilizer. This granular fertilizer will dissolve slowly releasing nutrients over time and avoid over and uneven fertilization. This fertilizer will settle into the soil and begin to release nutrients within the first 24 hours.
Weed control and prevention are also important in the early stages of Spring to help promote the growth and strength of your lawn and keep those ugly weeds out of your lawn. Crabgrass Preventer will target the early germination of Crabgrass to help manage Crabgrass in the Summer.
There are hybrid products that consist of both applications so you can manage both tasks with one application. These early Spring processes help the development of a thick root system which in itself fights to keep weeds away. Visit us again in Mid-Spring for our Step 2 tips for lawn care.
