Preparing Your Lawn for Winter: Essential Tips for Cold-Weather Care

As the temperature drops, your lawn needs extra care to stay healthy and green for the next season. Winter can be tough on grass, plants, and soil — but with the right preparation, you can protect your landscape and ensure it comes back strong in spring.

At Usman Sanu Landscaping, we help homeowners and businesses keep their lawns in top condition all year round. Here are some essential tips to prepare your lawn for winter:

1. Keep Mowing Until the First Frost

Continue mowing your lawn regularly until the weather becomes too cold for grass growth. Cutting your grass slightly shorter before winter helps prevent mold and disease caused by long, wet blades.

2. Rake Away Leaves and Debris

Fallen leaves and debris block sunlight and trap moisture, creating the perfect environment for pests and fungus. Keep your lawn clean and clear to let the grass breathe before winter sets in.

3. Aerate Your Lawn

Aeration helps your lawn absorb air, water, and nutrients deep into the roots. This process relieves soil compaction and strengthens your grass to survive the cold months.

4. Fertilize Before the Freeze

A late-season fertilizer rich in potassium gives your lawn the strength to withstand frost and recover faster in spring. Ask our team about the best winter fertilizer for your grass type.

5. Check Your Irrigation System

Before winter arrives, make sure your automatic irrigation system is working properly — and drain it if needed to avoid pipe damage from freezing temperatures.
