Spring is here...Finally!

New England is a strange place when it comes to weather and this year has been no exception. We hit 70 degrees back in December and yet now in April we are still feeling cold temps down to the low 30s but days are getting warmer and here are some of things I am doing at home to help force the warm weather here a little earlier.

  1. I took advantage of some decent weather and applied both Humid Acid & Fertilizer to get things going

  2. It’s early and I am seeing a lot of yellow grass in my lawn and neighborhood. This is probably from extreme cold this winter early on. I have started raking and dethached my lawn which helps this a lot and gets the debris out. It also gets me in the lawn working which I enjoy a lot.

  3. I have also mowed a couple of times now, this really isn’t for the grass growth but more to clan it up. I like to cut this time of year VERY low, even to 1.5” inches. This to get up any leaves and debris. I will switch to cutting higher very soon.

Lots more to do getting the yard ready for the season but this is where I am at today. Looking forward to sharing this seasons projects with you on the Silver Cymbal YouTube Channel of course!
