Is your Florida bahiagrass lawn looking lackluster? Proper fertilization is the key to keeping it green and healthy. Fertilize from spring to early fall in Central and North Florida and all year round in South Florida. Feed too early and a late frost can burn the new growth. Feed too late and the nutrients wash into the nearest waterway instead of into your roots. The best time to fertilize bahiagrass in Florida depends on where you live in the state.

Editor's Note: This story originally appeared on LawnStarter. Your ailing lawn is suffering from compacted soil and thick thatch, but can you dethatch and aerate at the same time? Absolutely. Performing both treatments at once benefits your lawn by improving water absorption, nutrient uptake, and air flow to the roots. But remember, timing is everything when it comes to dethatching and aerating your lawn. Perform these tasks during the wrong season, and you’ll do more harm than good to your lawn.
