Seasonal Lawn Care: Keeping Your Yard Healthy All Year
Each season demands different lawn care strategies. Learn how to keep your yard thriving year-round.
A beautiful lawn doesn't happen by chance — it's the result of consistent, season-appropriate care throughout the year. For homeowners across Greater Vancouver, understanding what your lawn needs in each season is the key to a thick, healthy, green yard.
What Should You Do for Your Lawn in Spring?
Spring is the time to rake out dead material, apply a balanced fertilizer, and address any bare patches with overseeding. Begin mowing when grass starts actively growing, and adjust irrigation schedules as temperatures warm across the Lower Mainland.
How Do You Protect Your Lawn in Summer?
Summer heat stresses lawns. Raise your mowing height to shade the soil and retain moisture. Water deeply but infrequently — early morning is best. Watch for pest and disease issues that thrive in warm, humid conditions.
Why Is Fall the Most Important Season for Lawn Care?
Fall is the most important season for lawn care in BC. Core aeration relieves compaction and allows nutrients to reach roots. Overseeding fills in thin areas. Fall fertilization promotes root growth that carries the lawn through Vancouver's wet winter.
What Lawn Care Should You Do in Winter?
Keep leaves and debris off the lawn to prevent disease. Avoid heavy foot traffic on frozen grass. Use this downtime to plan spring projects, sharpen mower blades, and service irrigation equipment.
