Twin Cites Lawn Care Tips for Spring

Spring arrived late last month, and the weather is just about right for knocking out some landscaping duties on your property. If you're the do-it-yourself type, we have a couple tips for you to help get your spring maintenance started.

DO A LITTLE CLEANING
Your Twin Cities landscape has undoubtedly accumulated some debris over the winter. Leaves, branches, and other items have probably collected and will need to be cleared out before you start anything else. Make this priority number 1; after all, it's not healthy for your lawn to have items sitting on it for an extended period of time.

GET WEEDING & FERTILIZING
Clear out any weeded areas you see present on your landscape, and then fertilize your grass, flowers, shrubs, and other plants. For edible plants that you might plan on eating later, consider a fertilizer that is free of pesticides.

TAKE A LOOK AT YOUR IRRIGATION SYSTEM
Make sure all of your sprinklers are working as they should be, that your pump is operating at its capacity and there's no problem with your water source. Test your control device to make sure it still works as it's supposed to.

Advanced Irrigation can help you tackle these tasks if you're not up for it on your own. Complete a free Twin Cities lawn care quote request today, or call us at (612) 599-8675.
