What can I put on my grass to make it green?

• <div><p>There are plenty of products to help green up your grass. Try an iron supplement spray or fertilizer that is rich in nitrogen. You can also apply a thin layer of <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-make-compost.htm">compost on top of your lawn</a> at the beginning of spring to give the grass a nutrition boost, which helps it achieve that bright color you are looking for. </p></div>

When should you stop watering in the fall?

• <div><p>Avoid watering your plants once temperatures regularly reach freezing temperatures or lower. Water won’t make it down to the roots at that point—it’ll just freeze to the topsoil level.</p></div>

Lawn Care questions, answered by experts

Make your ryegrass thicker by boosting soil health. Add organic matter, aerate the lawn if the soil is compacted, fertilize appropriately, and see if your lawn needs dethatching. Your local lawn care service can come and look at your lawn and provide specific advice and remedies for your lawn issues.

There are several best practices you can do to keep your lawn looking healthy. Knowing when to water grass is among the most important. Having your sprinkler timer set to early morning is best because it gives your grass and plants enough time to absorb water before the sun and wind can evaporate it. To maximize a sprinkler’s impact, aerate your lawn once or twice per year. Doing this achieves better absorption and stronger root systems for your grass.

There are plenty of products to help green up your grass. Try an iron supplement spray or fertilizer that is rich in nitrogen. You can also apply a thin layer of compost on top of your lawn at the beginning of spring to give the grass a nutrition boost, which helps it achieve that bright color you are looking for.

Professionals bring industry knowledge, can spot potential problems early, and tailor maintenance like fertilizing and weeding to your lawn's specific needs.

Avoid watering your plants once temperatures regularly reach freezing temperatures or lower. Water won’t make it down to the roots at that point—it’ll just freeze to the topsoil level.
