There are only a few things to cover for the spring Bermuda lawn checklist. A critical part is having the right products in stock, at the right times. Nothings worse than needing to do a spring lawn treatment and not being able to the needed products.
Tip #1 – Make sure your pre-emergent is down when soil temps are constantly in that 52 degree temp zone.
Tip #2 – Think ahead and order products before they sell out. Early bird gets the worm in spring lawn care.
Tip #3 – Watch the fertilizer video and understand the WINDOWS we talk about.
Tip #4 – Use ORGANIC FERTILIZERS later in the season when soil temps warm up.
Tip #5 – Scalp your lawn when the soil dries out so you don’t create RUT marks.
Tip#6 – Be prepared for army worms.
