Establishing a beautiful lawn on a newly built lot or repairing your existing lawn after heavy construction can be a frustrating process.

Georgia's warm climate means there are a few standout grass types that thrive here, with three main contenders: Bermuda, Zoysia and Fescue. 

If you have warm-season grasses, core aeration is an important step in maintaining a healthy lawn, especially during the spring. Soil compaction can negatively impact your lawn by restricting root growth and limiting the availability of water and nutrients.

While most of us know that grubs—common in Georgia—can cause significant damage to turfgrass, determining whether lawn damage is due to a grub infestation or another cause can be trickier. 

 If you've grown up in Georgia, you probably know crabgrass very well. You've encountered the relentless spread of it and other weeds every spring.

The new year is here, and with the cold settling in, it's important to consider what that means for your lawn in 2025. 

Now that winter is in full swing here in Georgia, many homeowners are noticing the challenges that freezing temperatures and frosty nights bring to their lawns and gardens. 

As the winter cold sets in, gardeners may face the challenge of protecting their plants from pests and diseases that can overwinter in their garden. While plants themselves may be dormant during the colder months, many pests remain active. 

As winter rolls in, many of us face the same challenge: our lush lawns begin to lose their green color as common warm-season grasses like Bermuda and Zoysia go dormant and turn brown. Enter turf painting, which involves using an organic colorant to give your lawn a green appearance, even during winter, without overseeding.

Georgia's southern climate allows for both warm-season and cool-season grasses, which can be confusing for homeowners. Cool-season grasses stay green during winter months, while warm-season grasses enter dormancy, turning light brown. If your warm-season grass—like Bermuda, Zoysia, or St. Augustine—is browning, don't fret just yet; it may just be dormant rather than diseased.

Fescue lawns are a popular choice among Georgia homeowners, known for their dark green appearance and adaptability to the local climate. This cool-season grass halts top growth during the winter months but the roots continue to grow so they still require care to ensure they emerge healthy and strong come spring. At AgroPro Lawncare Specialists, we believe that a little winter care can go a long way. Here are our top practices to keep your fescue lawn in tip-top shape this winter.

As our sweltering summer temperatures give way to the cool air of fall, it's easy to think that lawn care can take a backseat. However, fall is an ideal time to focus some efforts on preparing your yard for the upcoming winter and spring. There are plenty of tasks that can be done to ensure the health of your yard like leaf removal and mulching, but there are also some common mistakes can hinder your efforts and lead to issues later. Here are some top fall lawn care mistakes to avoid this fall.

Fall is upon us! A favorite season for so many because of the mild temperatures and beautiful mosaic of colors Georgia's landscape offers. But what about when those vibrant leaves cover your lawn? You may be asking yourself, "What do I do once the leaves come down?"

As summer starts to wind down this month and our mornings are getting cooler, a new challenge for lawn care arises: the emergence of cool-season weeds. These turf invaders, such as Poa annua, henbit, and chickweed, can quickly take over your lawn, leading to a whole slew of problems for you in the coming months. 

Grubs are the larval stage of various beetles, and while the beetles may just be a pest, grubs can cause significant damage to your lawn if left unchecked. Understanding the different types of grubs, their lifecycles, and the impact they have on your lawn throughout the year is crucial for effective lawn care.

Achieving a lush, vibrant lawn doesn't happen overnight—it starts with the right preparation. For homeowners in Georgia, September through November is the perfect time for aeration and overseeding, especially for fescue grass. These two important lawn care practices can transform your turf, setting the foundation for a thicker, greener lawn in the seasons to come. 

Armyworms can wreak havoc on lawns, especially in areas with warm climates like Georgia. Whether you're dealing with a current infestation or simply want to be prepared for armyworm season coming up, understanding these pests is key. Here're a few detailed frequently-asked questions to address common questions and concerns about these troublesome pests. 

Maintaining a lush, green lawn can be a challenge, especially during the scorching summer months when rain is scarce. Both homeowners and businesses face unique difficulties in weed control during these conditions. High temperatures and drought not only complicate weed management but also increase the risk of herbicide damage. But what exactly are weeds? 

Maintaining a vibrant, healthy lawn or garden throughout Georgia's scorching summer months requires strategic watering practices. As the relentless sun beats down and temperatures soar, proper hydration becomes paramount for your lawn's survival and vitality.
