Winterize your lawn
There are a few things that need to be addressed before fall truly turns to winter. Probably the most important would be a good winterize fertilizer with at least 50% in slow-release high nitrogen. Aeration to lossen up compacted soil is very important. But remember not all aerators are equal. You want a plug core aeration. You don’t want to poke holes in the ground you want to pull plugs up. merely poking holes in the ground actually makes the compaction worse as all the soul around them is compressed.
It’s also time to overseed if you want to keep a nice green lawn all. Overseeding with ryegrass will allow you to have a green yard all your long ryegrass will die out and see heat comes up in the spring.
