The Best (and Worst) Times to Fertilize Your Lawn in Michigan

By Ley’s Lawn Care | Feeding Lawns Right in Southeast Michigan

👍 Best Times to Fertilize:

• Early Spring (April): Boosts early growth
• Late Spring (May/June): Builds strength
• Fall (Sept/Oct): Critical for root development

👎 Worst Times:

• Mid-summer droughts: Can burn grass
• Frozen winter soil: Waste of product

✅ Pro Tip:

Use a slow-release fertilizer and always water it in. Ley’s uses professional-grade blends tailored to Michigan soils.
