3 Ways Landscaping Experts Make Your Yard Fall-Ready

1. Aerate the Soil

Aerating the soil in the early fall is the best way to ensure your grass remains healthy. This process involves putting small holes in the soil to allow air, water, and nutrients to reach the roots, allowing them to grow deep into the soil for strength that will last over time.

2. Apply Fertilizer

Lawn experts will agree that the fall is the best time to apply fertilizer because it keeps the grass healthy and robust, allowing it to grow deep roots so it can thrive by the time spring arrives. Different lawns will require certain fertilizers with a specific percentage of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. Professional landscaping experts will guide you towards the best product for your individual needs.

3. Rake the Leaves

While the beautiful multicolored leaves of fall look beautiful on the trees, they need to be raked as soon as they fall to the ground so that they don’t deprive the grass of nutrients. If they are left in the ground for too long, they will breed fungal disease and prevent proper drainage after storms.
