Hello. I live in Ottawa Canada, my grass being a fescue/bluegrass/rye mix.
Around labour day, I fertilized using a fall lawn care product with weed
control, as I was still having some weed problems (this seemed to work, by
the way). I aerated around the 21st of September, and the lawn actually has
looked best in the last month or so. I had intended to put down one more
application of fertilizer (wintercare) in late October (perhaps next
weekend) without weed control to prepare the lawn for the winter and next
spring. Since its getting down to the wire now, and the grass probably only
needs one more
cutting, my question is this: Is using the wintercare still a good idea at
this point? (Temperatures here are unusually low for this time of year, we
are already hovering just above 0c) Also, when I do cut the grass that one
last time, how short should I cut it, and should I bag it or mulch?

Thanks SO much...

Jimmy
