After a hot, dry summer, Northern Indiana lawns need some extra attention to bounce back. Fall is the perfect time to restore color, repair damage, and prepare your turf for the cold months ahead. Here are some professional tips from Lawnganics to get your grass looking its best.
Keep Leaves from Piling Up
Leaves left on your lawn can smother the grass, block sunlight, and lead to mold and dead patches. Be sure to rake or mulch regularly so your lawn can breathe and absorb those fall nutrients.
Aerate and Overseed for Stronger Grass Growth
If your lawn looks thin or stressed after the summer drought, aeration and overseeding can make a big difference. Aerating loosens compacted soil and helps water, oxygen, and nutrients reach the roots. Overseeding fills in bare spots and promotes thick, resilient turf for spring.
Feed Your Lawn with a Fall Fertilizer Application
Fall fertilization is essential for recovery and root development. Our organic lawn care packages bring the right nutrients and care while staying true to eco-friendly lawn services standards. The Lawnganics team recommends applying fertilizer after aeration and overseeding for best results.
Help Your Lawn Recover from Drought
Many Northern Indiana lawns are still feeling the effects of this summer’s dry weather. Deep, consistent watering (about one inch per week) will help revive the turf. Mow high, keep blades sharp, and avoid heavy foot traffic while the grass rebuilds strength.
