Bluegrass Maintenance Fall and Winter

A cool season grass with a deep green to blue color, when properly cared for can develop a tightly-knit turf, perfect for walking barefoot.

Maintenance

Fertilizing

As weather cools, use a slow-release fertilizer like Scotts® Turf Builder® WinterGuard® Fall Lawn Food to strengthen the lawn’s roots. It feeds the lawn consistently and is better for the environment. 

Watering

Decrease water as the temperatures cool and the rainy season starts.

Mowing

Mow at 2 1/2-3”, then mow at 2” until lawn stops growing, keeping grass short reduces winter mold.
