This is the time of year to repair your lawn. Temperatures are ideal, there is adequate rain and the majority of weeds are on their way out. A typical case is seen above. Jon's Lawns transformed a lawn that was overridden with crabgrass into lush, tall-fescue lawn and the owners are very happy. Some keys to the rejuvenation were using the highest quality seed, applying the best starter fertilizer, adding compost and employing a proper watering schedule.
Fall is the traditional time to rejuvenate your lawn. However, if you didn't have a chance last year, with the right process, a rejuvenation can take place in the Spring. Shown above are pictures from last week's power raking to de-thatch a customer's lawn. This process "combs" the lawn at and beneath the soils surface to pull up dead material that can build up and begin to suffocate the lawn. De-thatching will allow more water, nutrients and oxygen to reach the roots of your lawn. You would be amazed how much comes up!
