Fall Lawn Care & Winter Survival
by davidpsu
Make sure your grass stays healthy through the winter months
Have you thought about your fall lawn fertilization yet? Fertilizing in the fall is a critical part of lawn renovation and enables the lawn to survive through the winter.
The best time to apply a fall fertilizer is October into early November. As the days get cooler, the grass will start storing the nutrients the fertilizer provides. The benefits of fertilizing your lawn in the fall include increased and deeper root growth, a richer, darker-green color into late fall, a pleasant tan (instead of white grass leaves) in the dead of winter, an earlier spring green-up in the spring and much less disease and drought issues next year.
Winter Survival Fall Fertilizer is the perfect fall feeding formula for your lawn. It contains humates which feed and stimulate beneficial soil microbes, loosening heavy, hard packed soils so air, water, and the nutrients from the fertilizer move deep down into the root zone. If your lawn suffered damage this year and is in need of repair, it’s not too late to seed this fall with Jonathan Green’s Fall Magic grass seed mixture. It is specially formulated for mid and late fall seeding success. For best results seed before mid-October.
Jonathan Green’s Organic Lawn Fertilizer contains beneficial “food grade” 100% organic nutrients to help your lawn survive the winter months. Jonathan Green’s Organic Lawn Fertilizer will improve the health of your soil and repair the damage done to your grass over the summer.
Mag-I-Cal should also be applied to deliver soluble calcium immediately to the grass plant roots. Mag-I-Cal rapidly balances your soils pH. When the soil pH is in balance you get the full benefit of the lawn fertilizer you spread. If your lawn soil is acidic you could be wasting up to 70% of the fertilizer/food your spreading because the grasses in your lawn can’t extract the food from the soil. Mag-I-Cal works faster than regular lime. One bag is equivalent to up to ten bags of old fashion lime stone products.
