How to Winterize Your Lawn and Garden

Leaf Removal in Greenwich, CT

 

Keeping your lawn and garden protected during the winter ensures that it will be healthy and ready for planting in the spring. The winter can be devastating to your lawn and garden if it is not properly protected. It can cause moisture in the ground to freeze which can then destroy plant roots. It may also cause permanent frost damage to the top layer of your soil. However, there are some things you can do to prepare your lawn for winter and help keep it healthy and safe. Here are some tips for winterizing your lawn and garden:


  • Rake Up Leaves & Debris: Leaves and debris left on your lawn during the winter can cause dry and dead spots. Removing them prior to the arrival of winter will help minimize damage to your lawn and eliminate eyesores in the spring.


  • Aerate Your Lawn: Over time, your soil becomes compacted and is unable to get the water and nutrients it needs. Aeration drills holes into your soil and helps the vital nutrients it needs to reach the roots of your plants.


  • Use a Winterizer: Winterizer contains nutrients that are vital to the health of your lawn. This helps keep your lawn healthy during the brutal winter cold.


  • Pull Weeds: Weeds tend to flourish in the fall time. Pull weeds before it is too cold. Weeds can disrupt root growth and steal vital nutrients from your lawn.


  • Cover Flower Beds: Your top layer of soil is very susceptible to damage during the winter. Place a weed barrier over your exposed topsoil in your garden to protect it from damaging winter frost.


  • Lay Down Mulch: Lay down mulch in your beds before winter instead of waiting until springtime. Do this after the first hard frost in order to keep the ground frozen by shielding it in case there happens to be a warm spell.
