Springfield lawn care starts with understanding your soil. Most Springfield, Virginia lawns have sandy-loam soil that's slightly acidic, which works well for growing cool-season grasses like tall fescue and Kentucky bluegrass. The average 5,000 square foot lawn size means homeowners need the right amount of fertilizer for good coverage.
Your lawn care plan should focus on:
- Building organic matter above the current 5.53% level for better soil health
- Regular soil testing to check nutrient levels
- Adding nutrients where needed, especially iron and phosphorus
- Following a seasonal care schedule for mowing, watering, and weed control
The sandy soil in Springfield means water moves through quickly, so proper lawn care timing matters. Water deeply but less often to encourage deep root growth. The humid transition climate gives Springfield lawns a good growing season, but you'll need to adjust your care routine based on weather patterns and seasonal changes.
