3 pre-winter lawn
care pointers
Winter weather can be harsh,
especially on lawns. Homeowners who
spend much of spring and summer
tending to their lawns may fear the
impact that winter will have on their
once-lush landscapes, making the fall a
great time to fortify lawns against any
harsh conditions to come.
Homeowners must
take grass type into
consideration
before
taking steps to prepare
their lawns for the winter.
Some grasses are best
fertilized in late-summer,
while others should be
fertilized in autumn.
Cool-season
grasses,
including fescue and
bluegrass,
are
best
fertilized
sometime
between the months of
September
and
November. Warm-season
grasses, such as Bermuda
or zoysia, should be
fertilized between July
and September. Once
homeowners have gained
a greater understanding
of their lawns, they can
begin exploring the
various ways to prepare
their lawns for whatever
winter has in store.
1.
Ex p l o re
winterizing fertilizers.
Homeowners who
want to make their grasses
more winter hardy can
consult
landscaping
professionals
to
determine if winterizing
fertilizers will work for
their
lawns.
These
specially
formulated
fertilizers, many of which are made
exclusively for cool-season grasses,
contain higher levels of potassium and
lower levels of nitrogen than early16
season fertilizers. Potassium helps
strengthen and harden plants, and
cool-season grasses may need extra
potassium as winter settles in.
Homeowners who are not sure if they
should apply winterizing fertilizer can
conduct soil tests to determine the
potassium levels in their soil. If the test
indicates the soil has sufficient
potassium, then applying a winterizing
fertilizer is likely unnecessary. In

3 pre-winter lawn care pointers
Continued from page 16
addition, homeowners who have fed
their lawn a balance of nutrients
throughout spring and summer likely
will not need to apply winterizing
fertilizer.
2. Get rid of fallen leaves.
While fallen leaves may be integral
components of idyllic autumn
landscapes, leaves left on the lawn
throughout the winter may lead to
disease in the grass. Leaves trap
moisture and block sunlight and air
from reaching grass, and that can
encourage the development of disease.
In addition, leaves can harbor insects
that also may contribute to disease.
While it might seem like common sense
to delay leaf removal until the end of
autumn when all the leaves have fallen,
that, too, can prove harmful to lawns.
Leaves left laying on lawns for long
periods of time can contribute to the
same types of damage as leaves left on
the lawn throughout winter, so do your
best to remove leaves as they fall.
3. Take steps to fight snow mold.
Homeowners who live in regions
where snow falls into spring or where
spring tends to be cold and damp may
want to take steps to prevent snow
mold. Gray snow mold typically looks
fuzzy and gray, and lawns infested with
snow mold may develop unsightly gray
or brown spots indicative of dead grass.
Pink snow mold may be even worse
than gray snow mold because pink
mold attacks the roots as well as the
leaves. To prevent snow mold,
continue mowing into the fall, even as
lawns grow dormant, clearing the lawn
of grass clippings and leaves after each
mow. Thick lawns may provide a
breeding ground for snow mold, so
homeowners whose lawns have a
history of developing snow mold may
benefit from mowing their lawns into
the fall.
Winter is rarely easy on lawns, but
homeowners can take several steps to
prepare their lawns for potentially
harsh winter weather. FH168291
