Spring is just around the corner — and if you want your lawn to come back green, lush, and strong, now is the time to plan ahead.
Texas lawns wake up early, and starting your spring prep in late winter or early March can set the tone for a healthy, weed-free growing season.
At Limitless Landscaping, we help homeowners get their lawns back in shape with professional seasonal cleanups, fertilization, mowing, and aeration.
Here’s your guide to when and how to start preparing your lawn for spring.
Because of Texas’s warm-season grasses and mild winters:
✅ Late February to Early March is prime prep time
✅ Soil begins to warm, triggering root and blade growth
✅ Getting ahead of weeds and bare spots is critical
We recommend booking services before visible growth begins, so your lawn has a strong, healthy start.
Your grass can’t grow if it’s buried under last season’s debris.
🍂 Fallen leaves trap moisture and encourage disease
🪵 Twigs, branches, and thatch block sunlight
🌱 Clearing beds helps new growth emerge cleanly
Our spring cleanups include leaf removal, debris hauling, bed edging, and general prep for fertilization and mowing.
Weeds love to take advantage of early spring warmth — especially crabgrass, clover, and dandelions.
🚫 Waiting too long lets them germinate and take over
✅ Pre-emergent herbicides stop weeds before they sprout
✅ Works best when applied just before soil temps reach 55°F
Limitless Landscaping applies pre-emergent treatments as part of our early spring service packages, timed perfectly for Texas lawns.
If your lawn feels hard underfoot or has thin patches, soil compaction could be the issue.
✅ Aeration punches small holes to allow air, water, and nutrients to reach roots
🌿 Helps reduce thatch buildup
💧 Improves drainage and absorption ahead of spring growth
Our team offers core aeration as a powerful add-on to spring lawn prep, especially for high-traffic or clay-heavy yards.
Warm-season grasses (like Bermuda or St. Augustine) don’t need fertilizer until they’re actively growing.
✅ Wait until grass is at least 50% green
✅ Use a balanced, slow-release formula for steady growth
✅ Avoid heavy nitrogen early — it can stress dormant roots
We handle customized spring fertilization that feeds your lawn when it needs it most — not too early, not too late.
Once growth starts:
✔️ Begin mowing at a higher setting
✔️ Mow weekly to encourage dense turf
✔️ Avoid cutting more than 1/3 of blade height at a time
Our full-service mowing plans include edging, blowing, and regular care to keep your lawn healthy and presentable from day one.
