Happy Earth Day from the Turf Doctor team! 🌎🌱

Healthy lawns do more than improve curb appeal. A 2,500 sq. ft. lawn can produce enough oxygen for a family of four and help filter dust and pollutants from the air. They can also stay up to 60°F cooler than asphalt, helping moderate temperatures around your home.

Strong roots, balanced soil, and the right care all work together to support a healthier landscape, and we’re here to help!

Worried about crabgrass already? 🌿 Don’t be. In our area, it typically doesn’t begin germinating until early May. Our treatments adjust with soil temperatures, so whether your lawn is treated earlier or later, your lawn is still protected.

Think earlier is always better for spring lawn care? Not necessarily! Lawns treated later in the spring often perform just as well for crabgrass control and can even see stronger overall health as the season goes on.

Seeing your neighbor’s lawn treated but not yours yet? 🌱 In Maine, we start where the snow melts first and move inland as conditions allow. Timing can vary, but that doesn’t mean your lawn is behind. It just means we’re doing it right. 😌
