Seasonal Lawn Care

The Ultimate Seasonal Lawn Care Checklist for Oakland County

Each season brings new challenges to your lawn. Here’s what to do — and when — to keep it green and healthy year-round.


? Spring

  • Cleanup leaves & debris
  • First mow when grass hits 3″
  • Apply pre-emergent for crabgrass
  • Fertilize early (late March to mid-April)

☀️ Summer

  • Mow high, water deep
  • Watch for fungus & brown spots
  • Light fertilization if needed
  • Avoid cutting during extreme heat

? Fall

  • Aerate & overseed
  • Final mow at 2.5″
  • Apply winterizer fertilizer
  • Mulch or remove leaves

❄️ Winter

  • Avoid walking on frozen grass
  • Mark driveway edges for snow plow
  • Prep for early spring cleanup
