Your Lawn’s Getting Cozy Too

As temperatures cool and Florida’s growing season winds down, your lawn begins to take a much-needed rest. While it may look like things are slowing down above the surface, there’s still a lot happening underneath. Fall is when roots strengthen, nutrients settle in, and your turf prepares for spring growth.

Just like your home needs protection during cooler months, your lawn does too. Turner’s dormancy treatments are designed to keep your yard resilient, healthy, and ready to bounce back greener than ever once warm weather returns.

What Is Lawn Dormancy?

Dormancy is your lawn’s way of conserving energy during colder weather. Grass blades slow their growth, turning slightly brown or losing vibrancy. It might look like your lawn is dying, but it’s actually protecting itself. The real activity is happening underground, where roots are storing energy to power fresh spring growth.

Why Fall Lawn Care Still Matters

Even when your lawn looks quiet, it’s the perfect time to give it extra care. Turner's professional dormancy treatments help strengthen roots and defend turf against stress, pests, and cold. Treatments include specialized nutrients and protective products that:

• Reinforce root systems for stronger regrowth in spring.

• Protect against fungus and weeds that thrive in cooler weather.

• Reduce winter stress to prevent thinning and bare patches.

• Encourage deeper color and healthier blades when growth resumes.

Think of dormancy treatments as your lawn’s winter blanket—helping it rest, recover, and prepare to thrive again once temperatures rise.

Florida’s “Winter” Is the Perfect Window

While Florida doesn’t experience harsh freezes, short bursts of cooler weather can still shock warm-season grasses like St. Augustine, Bermuda, and Zoysia. Turner’s timing for fall and early-winter lawn care ensures protection through these fluctuations. With consistent treatments, you’ll see fewer weeds, stronger turf, and a smoother transition back into active growth next season.
