Spring has arrived in Alabama, and now is the time to prepare your lawn for outdoor gatherings, weekend BBQs, and relaxing evenings under the stars. At Deep Green Lawn Care, we specialize in transforming lawns into lush, weed-free, picture-perfect outdoor spaces for homeowners throughout Birmingham, Hoover, Alabaster, Chelsea, Pelham, and surrounding areas.
Here are 10 expert tips to help you get your lawn spring-ready and set the stage for your ultimate backyard oasis:
-
Schedule a Lawn Assessment:
Our professionals provide a full lawn evaluation to understand your lawn’s current health, soil composition, weed presence, and overall needs. From there, we tailor a treatment plan for optimal growth and beauty.
-
Apply Spring Fertilizer:
Early spring fertilization kickstarts growth and strengthens roots. Our nutrient-rich, eco-friendly fertilizer gives your lawn the boost it needs to thrive in Alabama’s warm spring conditions.
-
Use Pre-Emergent Weed Control:
Prevent weeds before they sprout! Applying pre-emergent weed control now protects against crabgrass, clover, and other invasive species common in the Birmingham area.
-
Refresh Pine Straw or Mulch:
Fresh pine straw gives your landscape beds a clean look and helps with moisture retention. We deliver and install premium pine straw throughout Birmingham, Pelham, Chelsea, and more.
-
Aerate Your Lawn:
Aeration allows water, oxygen, and nutrients to penetrate deep into your soil, reducing compaction and encouraging root development.
-
Check Irrigation & Water Smart:
Ensure your irrigation system is working efficiently. Your lawn needs about one inch of water per week in April, and watering early in the day reduces evaporation.
-
Start Pest Prevention:
Protect your lawn and outdoor time by targeting springtime pests like fire ants and mosquitoes. Our mosquito control and ant treatment services help you enjoy your yard worry-free.
-
Mow Properly:
Start mowing high—keeping your grass at the recommended height reduces stress and helps crowd out weeds. Sharpen mower blades to avoid damaging grass tips.
-
Add Clean Edging:
Well-defined edges add structure and a polished look to your lawn. Our landscaping pros can create clean, professional lines around your beds, walks, and driveways.
-
