Q: Is organic or synthetic fertilizer better for your lawn?

• <div><p>Whether <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/lawn-treatment-synthetic-or-organic.htm">organic or synthetic fertilizers are better</a> for your lawn depends on your goals, budget, and plans for other lawn treatments. Organic fertilizer costs more but is likely to benefit your lawn more in the long run by improving the soil as well as feeding your grass. Synthetic fertilizers get faster results but don&rsquo;t enrich the soil and may contaminate nearby bodies of water if you live on a shoreline. A hybrid fertilizer may be an option to give you the benefits found in both organic and synthetic fertilizers. </p></div>

Q: What is the best time of year to redo a lawn?

• <div><p>Depending on the lawn treatments, the best times of the year to redo your lawn are between mid-August and mid-September for overseeding and renovation treatments. For areas such as the southern United States, lawn aeration works best during the fall, when the temperatures begin to drop. Otherwise, early spring is your next best bet because the grass is fresh and ready to absorb nutrients, and the temperature isn&rsquo;t hot enough to fry the grass and the renovation materials.</p></div>

Q: What should I put down before grass seed?

• <div><p>Before you put down grass seed, you should cultivate your soil or add two inches of topsoil. You should also put down fertilizer at the same time as your seed to prompt healthy growth. Be sure to water after you put down grass seed, especially for the first two weeks.</p></div>

Q: How do I prepare for yard work services?

• <div><p>Some things you can do to prepare for yard work services are aerate the soil, fertilize your grass, keep weeds under control, regularly mow your lawn, and water your grass.</p></div>

Q: Can I handle lawn care myself?

• <div><p>DIY is possible for small properties. Professional services ensure consistent quality and proper maintenance for large areas.</p></div>
