Protecting Your Lawn This Fall: Soil, Seed, and Mulch Tips

A beautiful lawn doesn’t just happen in the spring — it starts with the work you put in during the fall. As temperatures cool and rainfall becomes more consistent, your lawn enters its prime growing season. This makes fall the perfect time to reseed, improve soil health, and give your grass the protection it needs to thrive through winter. With a little attention now, you’ll enjoy greener, thicker results when spring arrives.

Choosing the Right Soil Mix for Reseeding

Healthy grass starts with healthy soil. If your lawn has bare patches or thinning areas, fall is the ideal time for overseeding. Pairing your seed with the right soil mix ensures the best germination and root growth before winter sets in.

·       Topsoil blends provide the nutrients young grass needs to establish strong roots.

·       Soil with organic matter improves water retention and helps seeds stay moist.

·       Screened soil creates a smooth, even surface for spreading seed and achieving uniform coverage.

At Adams Landscape Supply, you’ll find premium soil mixes designed to give your new seed the best possible start.

Mulching Grass Clippings and Leaves

Instead of hauling bags of leaves to the curb, consider putting them to work for your lawn. Mulching leaves and grass clippings returns valuable nutrients back to the soil, reduces waste, and helps insulate your lawn for the colder months ahead. A light layer of shredded leaves can also act as a natural mulch, protecting grass roots and preventing soil from drying out too quickly.

Not only is mulching better for your lawn, it saves time and eliminates the heavy lifting of leaf cleanup.

Bulk Delivery Options to Save Time

Fall lawn prep often means moving a lot of soil, mulch, or seed — and multiple trips back and forth to the supply yard can eat up valuable time. With Adams’ bulk delivery options, you can have everything you need dropped directly at your home. Whether it’s a few yards of screened soil for reseeding or bulk mulch to protect garden beds, our fleet can handle orders of all sizes.

That means less time loading and unloading, and more time actually improving your property.
