Lawn turned brown, still needs winterize?
This is the first time I have this kind of lawn. It turns brown in
winter. Do I still need to winterize it? If yes, when? Is it too late now? Thanks. Any idea where you live? Yes. I live here.... http://i15.tinypic.com/34zk3r7.jpg 187 Willowen Dr Rochester, NY 14609-3233 (585) 467-3339 Winterize now and in the Spring you need to plant some trees! Dick |

Every Saturday spent pushing a lawn mower around a yard is one less day on the boat. Is there any behavior stranger than spending $$$$$ on fertilizer, $$$$ on water, and $$$$ on a lawn mower just so your days off will be monopolized by an expanse of ridiculous vegetation? If there is, it must have something to do with owning a boat. :-) |

Next spring treat the lawn to some insect killer, once again about June, and a third time in Aug. Meantime, rent a thatcher, or buy a thatcher blade for your lawnmower, rake up all the dead stuff and reseed. For reason's I can't explain the strip between Syracuse and Buffalo is Grub heaven. Gotta kill them off at least every Aug. Miss a year and you get to start over on your lawn (I know from experience) I would really like to know what sort of grass is planted along the expressways -- it seems to resist grubs, and stay green all summer! |

Seasonal grass will turn brown in the winter. I can't make any
recommendations on how to have a (winter) green lawn without knowing your location. Generally fall is the most effective time for lawn care in the US.
