What’s the Perfect Fertilization Schedule for Lawns in Georgia?

Jun 30, 2023

Fertilization is an essential part of maintaining a happy and healthy lawn in Georgia, but it needs to be done at certain times of the year to ensure the best results. The first time of the year you should fertilize your lawn is in the spring to help your grass green up faster and start the growing season off on the right foot. The second time of the year you should fertilize your lawn is later in the spring so that your grass gets a full replenishment of nutrients and is prepared for the hot summer season. Lastly, you should fertilize your lawn once in the summer to supply your lawn with the nutrients it needs to make it through the summer and bounce back from any heat-related stressors.

Fertilize once in the early spring to help your grass green up.

When the winter weather fades and spring rolls around, your grass will emerge from winter dormancy and need some help bouncing back. Your grass uses up its nutrients to survive the cold winter, but a spring fertilization treatment will replenish its nutrient supply so that it can transition smoothly out of winter dormancy. Not only that, but spring fertilization will help your grass start the growing season on the right foot. Fertilizers contain nutrients that encourage the growth of strong, healthy grass. With early spring fertilization, your grass will be able to green up quickly and grow thick, lush, and strong.


Fertilize once in the late spring to prepare your grass for the summer.

When the summer heat takes hold in Georgia, your grass will need a little extra boost to help it get through the sizzling months. Fertilizing in the late spring will replenish your lawn's nutrient supply so it’s prepared for the upcoming summer season. Stronger, healthier grass is more likely to withstand drought, insect infestations, and lawn diseases, so fertilizing in the spring will help keep you from having to deal with these issues down the line.




Fertilize once in the summer to help your lawn withstand the heat

Summers in Georgia are marked by scorching heat, which can be really stressful for your grass! You should fertilize your lawn once in the summer to supply your turf with the nutrients it needs to make it through the hot season. A summer fertilization treatment will help fortify your lawn so that it can withstand adverse weather conditions and other environmental stress.
