Now is the time to lower the mowing height on your over-seeded lawn. Maintain a good watering schedule during this transition. There is an old practice of withholding water from your lawn in order to transition from winter to summer; this practice is actually harmful to your permanent grass.

As the daytime temperatures get into the 90’s you will see your winter lawn starting to die off. Do not be alarmed if you see the tips of the grass browning out. Now is the time to fertilize using triple super phosphate. There is no nitrogen in triple super phosphate, nitrogen is what makes your winter lawn green. The triple super phosphate will encourage root growth of your summer lawn.

Let’s review;
1. Lower the mowing height on your mower.
2. Maintain a good watering schedule (2-3 times a week).
3. Fertilize with Triple Super Phosphate (0-45-0).
