Living in Lake Delton, WI, you have the privilege of experiencing all four seasons, which means your lawn care routine needs to adapt throughout the year. In this region, you're dealing predominantly with clay or sandy soil types. These are well-draining soils, perfect for growing lush grass, but it's important to understand how to maintain them properly.

Spring is the best time to start your lawn care routine. As the snow melts away and the temperatures start to rise, your lawn will start coming back to life. This is the time to begin mowing but remember not to cut your grass too short. A height of around 2.5 to 3 inches is ideal to allow the grass to grow thick and crowd out any potential weeds. Depending on your neighborhood, whether you're in the heart of Lake Delton or closer to Mirror Lake State Park, you'll want to start seeding any bare patches in your lawn.

As summer approaches, watering becomes crucial, regardless of whether you're near Dells Pond or further inland. To maintain a green lawn throughout the hot summer months, it's best to water your lawn early in the morning, allowing the water to penetrate deep into the soil before the sun can evaporate it. Fertilizing is also essential during this period to provide your grass with the nutrients it needs to thrive.

Fall in Lake Delton is the perfect time for aerating and dethatching your lawn. Aerating helps alleviate soil compaction and allows water, air, and nutrients to reach the roots more effectively. Dethatching removes the layer of dead grass and debris that can build up on your lawn, preventing it from absorbing essential nutrients.

Lastly, keep an eye on local water restrictions, especially during dry spells. Lake Delton is a beautiful place to live, and by taking proper care of your lawn, you can contribute to the overall beauty of the area. Remember, every lawn is unique and might require slightly different care, but with the right tools and knowledge, you can maintain a healthy, lush lawn year-round.
