Winterization FAQs
We get a lot of questions about winterizing; here are some answers.
What is winterization?
Any preparation done to protect against the damaging effects of winter counts as winterization. Spreading mulch around some plants, trimming, covering grills and patio furniture or moving them indoors, raking up acorns, wrapping some trees or shrubs, and moving potted plants indoors are all examples of winterization. If your neighborhood is interested in winterization services in Johnson County, reach out to Lifestyle Outdoor today.
When should I winterize my lawn?
In Kansas City, we are mostly working with cool-season grasses. It’s best to winterize cool-season grasses with two separate applications of an appropriate fertilizer. One fertilization should be in the early fall, the second would be, typically, mid-November.
Should grass be left short or long for winter?
Part of winterizing your lawn is trimming the grass to the shortest point it’s been at all year. If you want to break out a ruler (which we won’t judge), you’d want your grass to be about 2.5 inches high. This will allow it to continue providing nutrients to the roots while preventing frost from matting up and killing the grass.
Should gardens be covered in the winter?
It’s a good idea to cover your gardens or flower beds with a layer of mulch. This protects the soil but doesn’t suffocate it.
