Well Fed Lawns Resist Winter Ills
Lawn grasses are hardy against low temperatures but winter damage comes from poor drainage and freeze thaw cycles. Deep rooted, well nourished lawns resist heaving. feed 4 pounds per 100 square feet in spring, half that six weeks later, and another 4 pounds in early fall. Water deeply to avoid shallow roots. keep mowing between 2 and 3 inches.
