Spring is the perfect time to mow, fertilize and scarify the lawn. Scarifying should be done before fertilizing and mowing, as it loosens up the lawn and improves nutrient absorption.

Fertilizing helps keep the grass healthy and strong. It is best to use a lawn fertilizer with a balanced ratio of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium. You can also fertilize it with eggshells. Download our free checklist for all gardening tasks that need to be done in March HERE.
