Thank goodness for the cold weather. That’s right, you heard me, I’m happy for the cool weather. Why? I want a nice looking lawn this year. Grass grows better in the cold weather. So now is the time you should be taking a good look at your turf.
Like any garden, you always need to look at the foundation – the soil. The University of Minnesota recommends you always test your soil before adding any type of fertilizer. But I’ll admit, I haven’t tested my soil for about 10 years. I have sandy soil that rinses away the nitrogen. We bag our clippings every other mowing so don’t have a thatch problem. So I wing it. (Yes, I’m a Master Gardener who wings it and admits it!)
