Seasonal Lawn Care Guide: Strong Island Property Services' Secrets to Year-Round Beauty Aug 22, 2025

Maintaining a lush, green lawn year-round can seem daunting, especially when the seasons change and bring new challenges. Strong Island Property Services understands these challenges and has developed a comprehensive approach to seasonal lawn care that ensures your property remains the envy of the neighborhood. In this guide, we share our secrets to achieving a beautiful lawn throughout the year.

The journey to a stunning lawn begins in the spring, a season of renewal and growth. As the weather warms up, it's important to start by removing debris and aerating the soil, allowing your lawn to breathe and absorb nutrients efficiently. This sets the foundation for robust root growth. Overseeding is another crucial step, filling in bare patches and thickening grass coverage. A balanced fertilization plan tailored to your soil’s specific needs ensures your lawn receives the essential nutrients for vigorous growth.

Summer brings its own set of challenges, primarily heat and drought stress. To combat these conditions, Strong Island Property Services recommends implementing a watering schedule that promotes deep root growth rather than shallow, quick-draining roots. Water early in the morning to minimize evaporation and fungi growth. Mowing techniques are also vital; keep the mower blades sharp and set at the correct height to allow grass to shade the soil and retain moisture. Our professional-grade equipment ensures precise cuts that reduce disease risk and promote lush growth.

As autumn approaches, it’s time to prepare your lawn for the cooler months ahead. Fall is ideal for aerating and fertilizing, as the soil is still warm enough to facilitate nutrient uptake and seed germination. Core aeration addresses soil compaction, allowing air, water, and fertilizers to penetrate the ground effectively. This is also the season to apply a pre-emergent weed control treatment, mitigating weed problems in the following year.

Winter may seem like a time to relax when it comes to lawn care, but there are critical steps to take to ensure a healthy lawn in spring. Avoid excessive foot traffic on your lawn, as this can compact snow and lead to poor drainage or ice damage. If your area experiences significant snowfall, consider spreading hay or straw as protection against harsh winds and cold. It’s also a prime time to clean and service any lawn care equipment, ensuring they are ready for use when spring arrives.

Throughout the year, consistent soil testing can provide valuable insights into your lawn’s health. This allows Strong Island Property Services to tailor a maintenance plan that addresses your lawn’s unique nutrient profile and any deficiencies, maximizing grass health and aesthetics.
