In Petoskey, start your lawn care routine in late April to early May when temperatures consistently reach 50°F. This is when your grass emerges from winter dormancy and begins active growth. Begin with a light raking to remove debris and a soil test to understand your lawn's specific needs. Apply your first Sunday fertilizer when your lawn is actively growing, not showing signs of stress.

Keep your Petoskey lawn healthy by focusing on three core practices: proper watering, regular mowing, and timely fertilizing with Sunday's custom nutrients. Water deeply but infrequently to encourage deep root growth. Mow at the right height (never removing more than 1/3 of the blade at once). Apply Sunday fertilizers when temperatures are between 50-85°F for best results.

Common lawn care mistakes in Petoskey include cutting grass too short, which stresses cool-season grasses. Using dull mower blades tears grass instead of cutting cleanly, creating entry points for disease. Avoid improper watering - both over and under watering harm your lawn. Don't skip fall fertilization, as this prepares your lawn for Petoskey's long winter.

For Petoskey lawns, fertilize 3-4 times during the growing season. Start in spring when your lawn begins active growth, follow up in early summer, and apply a final treatment in fall. Sunday's custom plans take the guesswork out by delivering exactly what your lawn needs when it needs it. Each application typically provides 4-6 weeks of growth and green-up.
