Fall is the time to start putting your lawn to bed for the winter. Summer has come and gone, and chances are, it has taken its toll on your lawn. Drought, disease, insects and weeds can leave your lawn looking thin and patchy. Here are some tips for getting your lawn back into shape, preparing it for survival during the winter and a quick green-up in the spring:

Leave the lawn cut at the right height - your last mow for the season really counts!

Fertilize turf to help heal damaged lawns - Damaged areas in turf will recover more quickly with two applications of fertilizer in the fall. The first application should be made in early fall.

Over seed lawns that have extensive turf damage or loss - Some damage is too extensive to be fixed with just one application of fertilizer.
