Stop Crabgrass Before It Starts

What Is Crabgrass, and Why Is It So Problematic?

Crabgrass is a warm-season annual weed that germinates in the spring, usually when soil temperatures reach around 55°F for several consecutive days. Once it takes root, it’s hard to control without damaging your desirable grass. It grows low and wide, producing thousands of seeds per plant that can lay dormant and germinate the following year. This makes prevention essential.


Pre-Emergent Products: Your Best Defense

Pre-emergent herbicides are designed to create a protective barrier in the soil, preventing crabgrass seeds from germinating in the first place. Timing is crucial—you’ll want to apply a pre-emergent before soil temperatures rise and germination begins.


At Renewed Outdoors, we carry several effective crabgrass control products that also support overall lawn health:

🌿 18-0-4 with Dimension® from The Andersons

  • Combines a powerful pre-emergent herbicide with a slow-release fertilizer.
     
  • Prevents crabgrass while promoting strong early-season growth.
     
  • Great for homeowners who want weed control and fertilization in one pass.
     

🌿 0-0-7 with Dimension® from Greenlawn

  • A no-nitrogen formula for customers who want targeted crabgrass control without additional growth stimulation.
     
  • Ideal for established lawns where you don’t want to push top growth early in the season.
     

🌿 Step 1 from Scotts®

  • Part of the Scotts 4-Step Annual Lawn Care Plan.
     
  • Designed to prevent crabgrass and feed the lawn for a quick spring green-up.
     
  • A trusted name for homeowners who want a simple, seasonal approach.
     

When Should You Apply?

In the Midwest, including NW Ohio, the best time to apply a crabgrass preventative is typically mid to late March through early April, depending on weather. For best results:

  • Apply when the soil temperature hits 50–55°F consistently.
     
  • Water the product in lightly to activate the barrier.
     
  • Avoid disturbing the soil (raking or aerating) after application.
     

Don’t Let Crabgrass Win

Crabgrass is persistent, but with the right timing and the right products, it’s preventable. Protect your lawn early in the season with a pre-emergent treatment—and enjoy thicker, greener turf all year long.

Stop into Renewed Outdoors or visit our website to stock up on the best crabgrass prevention products available. Our team is here to help you choose the right solution for your lawn.

Preventing Outdoor Winter Falls in Northern Ohio

1. Effective Snow and Ice Management
Regularly clear sidewalks and driveways of snow and ice to prevent hazardous conditions. Renewed Outdoors offers high-quality deicing products like salt and environmentally friendly alternatives to enhance traction and reduce ice accumulation. These products, such as calcium chloride and magnesium chloride blends, are ideal for maintaining safer surfaces.


2. Wear Proper Footwear
Shoes and boots with good tread and slip-resistant soles are essential when walking on snow or icy terrain. Encourage family members, particularly children and older adults, to wear appropriate footwear during the winter.


3. Use Correct Snow Shoveling Techniques
Snow shoveling can lead to falls if done improperly. Use ergonomic shovels and clear small amounts of snow at a time to maintain balance and avoid overexertion. Apply deicing products after clearing snow to manage any residual ice.


Salt and Ice Melt Products from Renewed Outdoors

Renewed Outdoors provides a variety of ice melt solutions tailored to northern Ohio's winter needs. These include:

  • Rock Salt: Affordable and effective but works best in temperatures above 20°F.
  • Calcium Chloride: Ideal for lower temperatures and quick action.
  • Pet-Safe Ice Melts: Formulated to be less harmful to pets and vegetation.

These products can help homeowners and businesses maintain safer conditions during Ohio's snowy months.


For more information on preventing winter falls and the best ice melt products for your needs, contact Renewed Outdoors or visit their website.

Alarming Statistics

 Ohio experiences numerous injuries and fatalities each year due to falls on ice and snow, particularly during the winter months. Emergency rooms often see spikes in fall-related injuries such as fractures and head trauma during January, February, and March. Notably, children and older adults are disproportionately affected by these incidents​Wright & Schulte LLC​Wright & Schulte LLC. 

Fall Overseeding

Fall is the best time for overseeding cool-season lawns.

The mild temperatures, coupled with warm soil, offer optimal conditions for seed germination and grass establishment. Whether you're dealing with thin areas or simply want to rejuvenate your lawn, overseeding is a highly effective strategy.


Why Overseed in Fall?

Fall overseeding helps refresh your lawn by introducing new, stronger grass varieties that improve overall resilience against pests, drought, and disease. Unlike spring, when weeds can dominate, fall overseeding faces less competition, giving new grass the chance to thrive under ideal conditions.


Steps for Fall Overseeding

 

  1. Prepare the Soil: Before overseeding, mow your lawn shorter than usual and remove any debris. Aeration is crucial because it allows seeds to settle into the soil, promoting better germination. Water the lawn a couple of days before aerating to soften the soil.
  2. Choose the Right Seed: For cool-season lawns, blends like Renewed Outdoors Pro Athletic—containing 70% Turf-Type Tall Fescue, 20% Perennial Ryegrass, and 10% Kentucky Bluegrass—offer excellent durability and appearance. This blend is ideal for athletic fields or high-traffic areas.
  3. Fertilize Appropriately: After overseeding, it's critical to apply a high-phosphorus starter fertilizer to promote root development. The Andersons 18-24-12 Starter Fertilizer with Humic DG is a perfect choice. This fertilizer not only provides essential nutrients but also includes humic acid to enhance soil health and improve nutrient uptake, ensuring a stronger start for your new grass.
  4. Water Consistently: Keep the soil moist during the first few weeks to help the seeds germinate. Water lightly but frequently—about 2-4 times a day—so the seeds don’t dry out.
  5. Post-Seeding Care: Once the grass reaches about 3 inches in height, you can start mowing, but avoid cutting it too short. Fertilizing again about 6-8 weeks after germination will further strengthen your new grass.

Conclusion:

Fall overseeding with quality products like Renewed Outdoors Pro Athletic Grass Seed Blend and The Andersons 18-24-12 Starter Fertilizer with Humic DG ensures your lawn is set up for success through winter and into the next growing season. By following these steps, your lawn will emerge healthier and more resilient.


Starter Fertilizer

The Andersons 18-24-12 is a must-have when applying grass seed to new lawns or over-seeding already established turf. Apply 18-24-12 starter fertilizer before seeding so that the fertilizer is on the ground first.

Do you know what makes great topsoil?

The Ultimate Guide to Choosing the Best Topsoil for Your Landscaping Project

When embarking on any landscaping project—whether it's planting a garden, laying sod, or improving your yard—selecting the right topsoil is essential. The quality of the soil directly affects plant growth, root health, and overall landscape success. With so many different types of topsoil available, knowing which one best suits your needs will ensure your project thrives.


What Is Topsoil and Why Is It Important?

Topsoil refers to the uppermost layer of soil, typically rich in organic matter, microorganisms, and nutrients that plants need to grow. Good-quality topsoil promotes strong root systems, improves water retention, and enhances plant growth, making it a vital component for any landscaping or gardening project.


Types of Topsoil: Which Is Best for Your Project?

Not all topsoil is the same, and the type you choose will depend on the specific needs of your project. Let’s explore some common varieties of topsoil.


  1. Premium Topsoil (High Organic Content)
    • Best for: Gardens, lawns, and general landscaping.
    • This soil is typically screened and finely textured, making it ideal for planting beds and lawns. It retains moisture well, promotes healthy root growth, and is rich in organic matter—perfect for fostering vibrant plant life.


  1. Mixed Soil and Sand (Clay-Breaking Blend)
    • Best for: Areas with heavy clay or poor drainage.
    • A combination of topsoil and sand helps break up dense clay, improving drainage and soil aeration. This blend is ideal for prepping areas that need better water flow and root penetration before planting or seeding.


  1. Garden Soil (Custom Compost Blend)
    • Best for: Vegetable gardens and flower beds.
    • Often referred to as "black gold," this topsoil is enriched with compost to provide a nutrient-dense, moisture-retaining medium. It’s excellent for gardens, where rich soil is essential for healthy plant growth.


How to Choose the Right Topsoil for Your Project

To ensure your project is successful, match the topsoil to your specific landscaping goals:

  • For New Lawns: Choose a loamy, well-draining topsoil and apply a layer of 4-6 inches before planting grass seed or laying sod.
  • For Gardens and Flower Beds: Opt for nutrient-rich garden soil, especially those enhanced with compost to provide your plants with essential nutrients.
  • For Improving Heavy Clay Soils: A mixed soil and sand blend will help break up the clay, allowing for better drainage and root development.


Why High-Quality Topsoil Matters

Investing in high-quality topsoil can make a significant difference in the overall health of your landscape. It provides the necessary nutrients and structure that support plant health, reduces the need for frequent fertilization, and helps with moisture retention.

Healthy topsoil also promotes better aeration and water management, especially important in regions prone to sandy or clay-heavy soils. Choosing the right type of soil can minimize maintenance costs by helping plants establish stronger root systems and resist pests and diseases more effectively.


Where to Find Topsoil

For any landscaping project, sourcing topsoil locally is often the most convenient option. Look for suppliers who offer bulk delivery and can provide you with different soil options depending on your project’s needs. Many suppliers also offer custom soil blends for specific landscaping purposes, including garden soil or soil designed for water management and drainage improvements.


Conclusion

Topsoil is the foundation of any successful landscaping or gardening project. Understanding the different types and selecting the right topsoil for your specific needs can help ensure that your plants, lawns, and gardens thrive. Whether you need high-quality garden soil, a loamy topsoil for a new lawn, or a custom soil blend, investing in the right product will make all the difference in achieving a beautiful, healthy outdoor space.

Do you know how to figure how much maulch you need?

How to Estimate the Right Amount of Mulch, Gravel, Topsoil, and Sand for Your Landscaping Project

Whether you're freshening up a garden bed, creating a new pathway, or leveling a yard, knowing how much material to order is crucial for a successful landscaping project. This guide will walk you through the steps to accurately calculate the amount of mulch, gravel, topsoil, or sand you need, so you can order just the right amount and avoid costly overages or shortages.


Step 1: Measure the Area

The first step in determining how much material you need is to measure the area where you'll be applying the product. For most projects, you'll need to measure the length and width of the space in feet.

  • For Square or Rectangular Areas: Measure the length and width, and multiply them together to get the area in square feet.
    Area=Length×Width\text{Area} = \text{Length} \times \text{Width}Area=Length×Width
  • For Circular Areas: Measure the diameter of the circle, then divide by two to get the radius. Use the formula for the area of a circle.
    Area=π×radius2\text{Area} = \pi \times \text{radius}^2Area=π×radius2


Step 2: Decide on Depth

Each type of material will have a recommended depth, depending on its use. Here are some general guidelines:

  • Mulch: 2 to 3 inches for garden beds
  • Gravel: 2 to 4 inches for pathways, 4 to 6 inches for driveways
  • Topsoil: 4 to 6 inches for new lawns, 2 to 3 inches for garden beds
  • Sand: 2 to 3 inches for leveling, 1 to 2 inches under pavers

Convert the depth from inches to feet by dividing by 12.


Step 3: Calculate the Volume

Now that you have the area and depth, you can calculate the volume of material needed in cubic feet.

Volume (cubic feet)=Area (square feet)×Depth (feet)\text{Volume (cubic feet)} = \text{Area (square feet)} \times \text{Depth (feet)}Volume (cubic feet)=Area (square feet)×Depth (feet)

For example, if you have a 10-foot by 10-foot garden bed and you want to apply 2 inches of mulch:

  • Area = 10 feet × 10 feet = 100 square feet
  • Depth = 2 inches ÷ 12 = 0.167 feet
  • Volume = 100 square feet × 0.167 feet = 16.7 cubic feet


Step 4: Convert Cubic Feet to Cubic Yards or Tons

Most bulk materials are sold by the cubic yard or ton. To convert cubic feet to cubic yards:

Volume (cubic yards)=Volume (cubic feet)÷27\text{Volume (cubic yards)} = \text{Volume (cubic feet)} ÷ 27Volume (cubic yards)=Volume (cubic feet)÷27

For the previous example:

  • 16.7 cubic feet ÷ 27 = 0.62 cubic yards

For gravel or sand, which may be sold by the ton:

1 cubic yard of gravel typically weighs about 1.4 tons, and 1 cubic yard of sand typically weighs about 1.5 tons. So, if your project requires 1 cubic yard of gravel:

  • 1 cubic yard × 1.4 tons = 1.4 tons of gravel


Step 5: Order a Little Extra

It's always a good idea to order a bit more material than your calculation indicates—typically 10% extra—to account for settling, compaction, and slight measurement errors.


Step 6: Use Our Online Calculator

To make this process even easier, you can use our cubic foot calculator available on our web app. Simply input your area measurements and desired depth, and the calculator will do the math for you!


Conclusion

Estimating the right amount of landscaping material may seem daunting, but by breaking it down into these simple steps, you can ensure that your project goes smoothly. Whether you're ordering mulch, gravel, topsoil, or sand, these calculations will help you get the job done right the first time. And remember, if you need assistance, the experts at Renewed Outdoors are always here to help!

Making Landscape Mulch

How Is Mulch Made at Renewed Outdoors?

Mulch, often made from organic materials, offers numerous benefits for landscaping and gardening. It helps reduce soil moisture evaporation, suppresses weeds, insulates soil from temperature fluctuations, reduces soil erosion and compaction, and gradually decomposes, adding valuable organic matter to the soil. Additionally, mulch enhances the visual appeal of landscapes.


What Is Mulch?

Mulch primarily consists of organic materials and comes in various forms. Common types of mulch include tree bark, wood chips, pine straw, moss, grass clippings, and leaves. Other materials like newspaper, manure, and compost are also used.


At Renewed Outdoors, we primarily use tree bark and wood chips, recycling tree debris that would otherwise end up in landfills or burn piles.


How Are Different Types of Mulch Made?

When selecting mulch for your landscaping needs, consider the source and preparation of each type. Here are some common mulch options and how they are made:

  • Leaf Mulch: Easily made by raking leaves and chopping them with a mower. Leaf mulch adds nutrients to gardens and landscapes.
  • Bark Mulch: Created by scraping bark off fallen or cut trees, typically from pine trees, offering an attractive landscaping option.
  • Wood Chips: Produced by chipping recycled tree debris. Renewed Outdoors offers cypress and pine wood chips, which can be dyed for added aesthetic value.
  • Compost: Made by allowing organic material to decompose over time, resulting in a nutrient-rich by-product for garden beds.

Each mulch type has its pros and cons regarding aesthetics and nutrient addition. Compost and leaf mulch are highly nutritious but may not be the most visually appealing. Additionally, certain leaves (e.g., walnut and eucalyptus) can inhibit plant growth.


Where Does Renewed Outdoors Get Its Mulch?

Renewed Outdoors recycles wood mulch through an extensive process involving a log grinder, screening equipment, and a colorizing trommel. This equipment ensures that the mulch is processed efficiently and meets high-quality standards. The mulch is then naturally aged to develop rich, natural coloring, enhancing its appearance and effectiveness in landscapes.


The debris used in our mulch production is collected from various sources, including storm damage, land clearing operations, and residential tree trimming or removal. This recycling process transforms the debris into a beneficial landscaping product, giving it a second life as nutrient-rich mulch rather than contributing to landfill waste or being burned.


Additionally, Renewed Outdoors manufactures and sells certified IPEMA playground mulch, specifically designed for regional schools and daycare center playgrounds. Our playground mulch meets rigorous safety standards, providing a safe and durable surface for children's play areas.

Ways to Help Your Grass Look Greener

Transforming Outdoor Spaces with Renewed Outdoors, LLC

A lush, green lawn is the dream of many homeowners. If your grass is looking dull or patchy, here are some effective tips to rejuvenate it and achieve that vibrant, healthy look.


1. Fertilize Properly

Applying the right fertilizer can significantly boost your lawn's health. Use a slow-release, organic fertilizer rich in nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. Adding iron, especially in the autumn, can help your grass maintain a deep green color.


2. Water Correctly

Proper watering is crucial. Most lawns need about 1 to 1.5 inches of water per week, including rainfall. Water deeply and less frequently to encourage deep root growth. Early morning is the best time to water to reduce evaporation.


3. Seed Your Lawn

Overseeding your lawn in the spring or fall can fill in bare spots and thicken the grass. Choose high-quality grass seeds that are suitable for your climate and soil type.


4. Test Your Soil

Soil health is fundamental. Test your soil’s pH and nutrient levels. Grass thrives in slightly acidic to neutral soil (pH 6.5-7.0). If necessary, amend your soil with lime to raise the pH or sulfur to lower it.


5. Remove Weeds

Weeds compete with your grass for nutrients, water, and sunlight. Use organic or chemical weed killers to control weed growth. Regularly pull-out weeds by hand to prevent them from spreading.


6. Aerate Regularly

Aeration involves perforating the soil to allow air, water, and nutrients to penetrate the grass roots. This helps alleviate soil compaction, promotes root growth, and enhances soil structure. Aerate your lawn once or twice a year.


7. Maintain Mower Blades

Sharp mower blades ensure a clean cut, reducing the risk of disease and pest infestation. Dull blades tear the grass, causing stress and making it more susceptible to issues. Sharpen or replace mower blades regularly.


8. Control Pests

Pests like grubs and chinch bugs can damage your lawn. Monitor for signs of pest activity and use appropriate insecticides or natural pest control methods to keep them in check.


9. Mow Higher in Summer

During the hotter months, raise your mower blades to leave the grass taller. Taller grass shades the soil, reduces evaporation, and helps prevent weed growth. Aim to keep your grass about 3 inches high.


10. Clean Up Pet Waste

Dog urine can cause nitrogen overload, leading to brown spots. Train pets to use a designated area and clean up waste promptly. Rinse the area with water to dilute the urine.


Suggested Products

  • Slow-Release Organic Fertilizer: Look for options with balanced NPK ratios and added micronutrients.
  • Grass Seeds: Choose varieties like Kentucky bluegrass, fescue, or ryegrass based on your region.
  • Soil Testing Kits: These can help you determine your soil's pH and nutrient needs.
  • Weed Killers: Use organic options like vinegar-based solutions or chemical herbicides with glyphosate.
  • Insecticides: Neem oil or chemical treatments can effectively control common lawn pests.

Effective Strategies for Eliminating Army Worms and Grubs from Your Lawn

Introduction: A lush, green lawn is the pride of any homeowner, but it's under constant threat from various pests. One of the most destructive pests that can wreak havoc on your grass are army worms and grubs. Identifying and addressing these pests early can save your lawn from significant damage. In this blog post, we will explore the signs of infestation, the importance of controlling harmful pests, and how to effectively eliminate them using Duocide by The Andersons.


Signs of Infestation: Before diving into the solution, it’s crucial to recognize the signs of a grub or army worm infestation:

  1. Patchy Brown Spots: Small, irregular brown patches that gradually expand can indicate grub activity.
  2. Spongy Turf: If your lawn feels spongy when you walk on it, it might be due to grubs feeding on the roots of the grass.
  3. Increased Animal Activity: Birds, raccoons, and skunks digging in your lawn could be after grubs beneath the surface.
  4. Visible Pests: In severe cases, you may see army worms or grubs on the surface of the soil, particularly early in the morning or after rain.


Why It's Important to Control Harmful Pests: Eliminating grubs, army worms, fleas, ticks, and other harmful pests is essential for several reasons:

  1. Protecting Lawn Health: Pests like grubs and army worms can cause significant damage by feeding on grass roots and foliage, leading to unsightly and unhealthy lawns.
  2. Preventing Spread of Diseases: Fleas and ticks are not just a nuisance; they can transmit serious diseases to humans and pets, such as Lyme disease and Rocky Mountain spotted fever.
  3. Maintaining Property Value: A well-maintained lawn enhances the aesthetic appeal and value of your property.


Eliminating Pests with Duocide by The Andersons: To tackle these pests effectively, we recommend using Duocide by The Andersons, a highly effective product designed to combat multiple harmful insects.


When to Apply:

  1. Early Spring: Begin applications in early spring when the soil temperature reaches around 55 degrees Fahrenheit, which is when grubs start to become active.
  2. Late Summer to Early Fall: A second application in late summer or early fall helps control the next generation of grubs and army worms, ensuring they don’t overwinter in your lawn.

How to Apply:

  1. Mow Your Lawn: Before application, mow your lawn to ensure the product can reach the soil more effectively.
  2. Apply Duocide Evenly: Using a broadcast spreader, apply Duocide evenly across your lawn. Follow the product label for the correct application rate based on the size of your lawn.
  3. Water In: Lightly water your lawn after application to help the product penetrate the soil and reach the pests.
  4. Repeat as Needed: Depending on the severity of the infestation, you may need to reapply the product according to the manufacturer’s recommendations.


Additional Tips:

  • Monitor Regularly: Keep an eye on your lawn throughout the growing season for any signs of pest activity.
  • Integrated Pest Management: Combine chemical treatments with good lawn care practices, such as proper mowing, watering, and aeration, to keep your lawn healthy and less susceptible to pests.


Conclusion: Dealing with army worms, grubs, fleas, ticks, and other harmful pests is essential to maintaining a healthy and beautiful lawn. By recognizing the signs of infestation early and using effective treatments like Duocide by The Andersons, you can protect your lawn from damage and ensure it remains a vibrant part of your home landscape. Remember, a proactive approach to lawn care is the best defense against these persistent pests.

Essential Soil Amendments

Replenishing Your Lawn: The Importance of Soil Amendments

At Renewed Outdoors, we understand that the secret to a vibrant, healthy lawn goes deep below the surface. Over time, soil can become depleted of essential minerals and nutrients, leading to visible problems and poor plant health. That's why we carry a comprehensive range of soil amendments from trusted brands like The Andersons, Bonide, Espoma, Crystal Blue, and Earth Science. These products are designed to address nutrient deficiencies and improve soil structure, ensuring your lawn stays lush and resilient.


Recognizing Soil Deficiencies

The first step in revitalizing your lawn is identifying signs of nutrient deficiency. Common indicators include yellowing leaves, slow growth, and brown patches that fail to thrive even with adequate watering and care. These symptoms suggest that your soil may be lacking in key minerals such as lime, iron, and carbon.


The Role of Soil Amendments

Soil amendments work by adding back the crucial elements your lawn needs to flourish:

  • Lime: Often used to correct soil acidity, lime helps increase pH and improve the availability of other nutrients like phosphorus and potassium.
  • Iron: Essential for chlorophyll production, iron amendments can help prevent and correct yellowing of grass blades known as chlorosis.
  • Carbon: Organic amendments rich in carbon, such as those from Earth Science, can enhance soil structure, moisture retention, and microbial activity, leading to healthier soil.


When and How to Apply Soil Amendments

Timing and correct application are crucial for maximizing the benefits of soil amendments:

  • Spring: Early spring is ideal for applying lime and carbon-based amendments, preparing the soil before the growing season.
  • Fall: Iron supplements are best applied in the fall, helping to strengthen plants against the stress of winter.
  • Annual Soil Testing: To precisely tailor your soil amendment needs, we recommend getting your soil tested annually. This analysis will guide you on exactly what your lawn needs and in what quantities.


How to Apply

Follow these general guidelines when applying soil amendments:

  • Test your soil: Before adding any supplements, have your soil tested to determine its current nutrient and pH levels.
  • Follow instructions: Use the recommended amount as stated on the product’s package, generally applying 50 to 100 pounds of lime per 1,000 square feet or according to your specific soil needs.
  • Even distribution: Ensure that any granular products are evenly spread over your lawn. Watering after application helps some amendments penetrate the soil and begin working.

Important Season Tips

The Ultimate Guide to Year-Round Lawn Care with Renewed Outdoors

Creating and maintaining a lush, healthy lawn is not just about occasional watering and mowing. At Renewed Outdoors, we understand that each season brings its own set of challenges and opportunities for lawn care. That's why we offer a comprehensive range of top-quality products from trusted brands like The Andersons, Scotts, Preen, Hi-Yield, Ferti-Lome, and Lilly Miller. Our friendly, expert staff are always ready to guide you through choosing the right products and applying them effectively. Here’s how you can keep your lawn in prime condition all year long.


Spring: Awakening Your Lawn

Spring is a critical time for setting up your lawn for success throughout the year. Start by applying pre-emergent herbicides like Hi-Yield’s Crabgrass Control to prevent crabgrass and other weeds before they start. It's also the perfect time to nourish your lawn after the long winter. Consider using Scotts Turf Builder to stimulate lush, green growth.


Summer: Maintenance and Moisture Control

As temperatures rise, maintaining moisture becomes crucial. Use The Andersons’ Humic DG to improve soil structure and increase water retention. For pest control, Ferti-Lome’s Come and Get It! Lawn Weed Killer can tackle broadleaf weeds without harming your grass. Don't forget to apply a layer of Lilly Miller Moss Out! for lawns where moss might be an issue.


Fall: Preparing for Dormancy

Fall is the time to prepare your lawn for winter dormancy. Apply Preen Lawn Weed Control to clean up any lingering weeds. To ensure your lawn has the nutrients it needs to survive the winter, use Ferti-Lome Winterizer. This late-season fertilizer helps build resistance against cold and frost.


Winter: Protection and Planning

While your lawn rests, planning for the upcoming seasons is key. This is a great time to test your soil and amend it with soil conditioners from Scotts or The Andersons. Although growth is paused, it’s wise to apply a protective treatment like Hi-Yield’s Winter Guard, which fortifies roots against freezing temperatures and nutrient depletion.


Year-Round Tips

Regardless of the season, regular monitoring and maintenance are crucial. Always be on the lookout for signs of pests and diseases. Our range of pesticides and herbicides can address any issue, whether it's an infestation of aphids in spring or grubs in summer. Remember, our staff at Renewed Outdoors are here to help you with personalized advice tailored to your lawn’s unique needs.
