Though the backyard barbecues go on hold as the colder months approach in New Jersey,
it’s prime time to start thinking about and preparing your lawn for next year’s outdoor activities.
With the expert horticultural services that New Jersey Best Lawns, Sprinklers & Fencing
provides, you can make sure that your grass is beautiful and lush following the harshness of
winter.

What should be done for fall?
Before winter hits, there are a few key care tasks that should be accomplished in order to
have your lawn looking summer-ready next year. Fall lawn prep is thus essential in helping your
lawn repair summer damage, build a strong root system, and control pests that can wreak havoc
on your lawn during winter.
Fall lawn care should include:
● Leaf clean-up to prevent lawn suffocation, trapped moisture, and disease
● Mowing and edging to a safe height that won’t expose roots to winter elements
● Fertilizing to ensure energy storage and strong roots in preparation for winter dormancy
and early spring growth
● Reseeding and bare spot seeding to promote a thick, dense lawn for spring
● Weed control that targets perennial weeds, such as dandelions and clover, that store
nutrients
● Sprinkler winterization so your pipes survive winter freezing

What are the benefits of a manicured lawn?
Besides providing a fantastic setting for outdoor work, relaxation, and activities, good
lawn maintenance benefits more than just aesthetics. Frequent lawn care and irrigation improve
your local environment by filtering pollutants, cooling the surrounding environment, and
preventing soil erosion by stabilizing the ground with its root system. Professional practices can
also help you save money in the long run. Mowing your grass to the right height encourages
deeper roots and better moisture retention. This, in turn, reduces the need for excessive watering
and weed control.
Overall, manicuring your lawn is a prime way to make sure that both your yard, your
environment, and your wallet stay happy.
