Spring Lawn Care Prep: How to Get Your Yard Ready for the Growing Season

Spring is just around the corner, which means it’s time to start preparing your lawn for a season of healthy growth. After months of cold temperatures, your yard needs a little TLC to bounce back strong. Taking the right steps now will set you up for a lush, green lawn all year long!

Follow these spring lawn care tips to get your yard in top shape—and learn how LTP Property Maintenance can help you make the process stress-free.

1. Clear Out Winter Debris

Winter can leave behind a mess—fallen leaves, branches, and compacted soil from snow or heavy rain. Start your spring prep by raking away debris and clearing out any dead grass or thatch.

✅ Why it matters: A clean lawn allows sunlight, water, and nutrients to reach the soil and prevents mold or disease from developing.

2. Feed Your Lawn with Early-Season Fertilization

Just like we need a good breakfast to start the day, your lawn needs the right nutrients to kickstart spring growth. A slow-release fertilizer rich in nitrogen and potassium will help strengthen roots and encourage lush green grass.

✅ Pro Tip: Apply fertilizer before spring rains for the best absorption!

3. Aeration & Overseeding: Strengthen Your Grass

If your lawn had bare spots or compacted soil last year, aeration and overseeding can bring it back to life this spring.

• Aeration: Loosens compacted soil and allows better water and nutrient absorption.
• Overseeding: Fills in thin or patchy areas for a thick, even lawn.

✅ LTP Property Maintenance offers aeration and overseeding services to ensure a fuller, healthier lawn!

4. Stop Weeds Before They Start

Spring weeds like crabgrass and dandelions love to take over lawns early in the season. Applying a pre-emergent weed control treatment now will prevent these weeds from sprouting.

✅ Why it matters: Treating weeds early means less time battling them later in the season!

5. Schedule Professional Lawn Care Now

Spring is the busiest season for lawn care, and scheduling your services now ensures your yard gets the attention it needs before spots fill up.
