Lawn Care Scheduler
Pick your grass type and state for a season-by-season mowing, fertilizing, and watering plan.
Kentucky Bluegrass in California (Pacific West). Dense, self-repairing; needs sun and regular water.
Year-round schedule
| Season | Task |
|---|---|
| Early spring | Rake; apply pre-emergent for crabgrass; light fertilize |
| Late spring | Fertilize; overseed thin spots; mow at 3″ |
| Summer | Mow high; water deeply; avoid fertilizing in heat |
| Early fall | Main fertilizer (key timing); aerate; overseed |
| Late fall | Final mow; winterize; lime if soil test says |
| Winter | Rest; service mower; clear debris |
General guidance; adjust for microclimate, shade, and soil test. Warm-season grasses green up late spring and go dormant in winter; cool-season grasses peak in spring and fall.
