The winter season can take a toll on your lawn here in Texas. To prepare it for the cold weather, you should schedule a professional winterizer treatment. This type of fertilizer treatment is designed to fortify your grass with nutrients to prepare it for the winter season. Some of the nutrients that are typically found in winterizer treatments include nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. What's more, winterizer treatments also promote deep, robust root growth which will help your lawn make it through the winter season and bounce back quicker come springtime. Continue reading to learn more about winterizer treatments and why they are necessary.


What are winterizer treatments, and why are they necessary?

Winterizer treatments are a type of fertilization treatment that provides your lawn with key nutrients to help it withstand the winter season. These treatments are typically applied in late fall, right before the winter begins, to prepare your grass for its dormant phase. The nutrients this treatment contains will also give your lawn a boost at the end of the year so that it can remain healthy as it enters winter.

You should also utilize weed control treatments before the winter season arrives so that weeds don't steal nutrients from your grass.


The nutrients found in winterizer treatments will help your lawn survive the winter season.

Winterizer treatments contain essential nutrients that provide numerous benefits to your lawn. For example, nitrogen encourages robust growth by promoting chlorophyll production, which also gives your grass its vibrant green color. Phosphorus helps your lawn absorb and retain water, keeping it hydrated even during dry periods. Potassium strengthens your lawn by helping it better absorb water and other nutrients and also helps make it more resilient against environmental stressors like drought, disease, and insect infestations. By supplying your lawn with all of these essential nutrients, your lawn will have the best chance to make it through the winter season in good shape!


Winterizer treatments promote deep root growth to keep your lawn nourished all winter.

One of the best ways to ensure your lawn survives the winter season is to encourage deep root growth. Applying a winterizer treatment will do just that! Because this treatment contains high levels of nitrogen, your lawn will develop strong, dense roots that absorb water and nutrients better. When the roots of your grass are able to hold more nutrients and water, your grass will be better equipped to make it through the winter season because it will be able to feed off of these resources throughout the duration of the winter. What's more, by applying a winterizer treatment to your lawn in the fall, it will be better able to emerge from winter dormancy in good shape so that it can start the spring season off on the right foot.
