Maintaining a healthy lawn in Burlington Flats, NY involves a series of steps that are best performed according to the local climate and soil type. Given our area's distinct four-season climate, the timing of these lawn care tasks can be crucial to their success. Let's delve into some of the most important elements of lawn care and the best time to perform them in Burlington Flats.

Mowing is the most basic aspect of lawn maintenance. The frequency of mowing largely depends on the type of grass and the time of year. During the peak growing season, typically from late spring to early fall, you should mow at least once a week. Always remember to keep your mower blades sharp and never cut more than one-third of the grass blade at a time to avoid stress on the grass.

Fertilizing, seeding, and watering are also essential tasks. The best time to fertilize your lawn in Burlington Flats is in the spring when the soil temperature reaches 55 degrees Fahrenheit, usually in April. For seeding, early fall is an excellent time as the soil is still warm but the air is cooler. Watering should be done early in the morning, allowing the water to soak deep into the soil and reach the roots. Make sure to follow any local water restrictions.

Aerating and dethatching are best performed in the fall, but you can also do it in the spring. These processes help to improve soil health and allow water, nutrients, and air to reach the root zone more effectively. The soil type in areas like the Lake Road neighborhood or around Wilber Park can be quite compact, making aeration especially beneficial.

By following these tips, you'll be well on your way to maintaining a healthy and vibrant lawn in Burlington Flats. Remember to adjust these guidelines according to your specific lawn conditions and enjoy the beauty of your outdoor space year-round.
