In just a few short weeks, we’ll be setting our clocks forward and slowly preparing for warmer weather ahead. It always feels like winter drags on forever but before we know it, we’ll be staring at our dismal lawns and wondering how we will ever have enough time to fix our snow and salt damaged grass before the summer. Cataldo has been helping with lawn care needs in Wellesley, MA who deal with these problems, and have a few suggestions to fix your grass.
Snowpack often creates fungal diseases on our lawns because as the soil warms, the moisture is often trapped or saturated on our lawns. This happens most often when we get those early snowstorms before our ground can freeze. This is a treatable problem that can be sol
ved with fungicide.
Salt damages are another concern for lawns, but for a completely different reason. Salt dries out grass to the roots, even with the moisture of melting snow and spring rain. Once your lawn dries completely, using gypsum has shown to give great results and help your lawn bounce back after proper watering.
