What Salisbury lawns are like
Around three-quarters of an acre on paper, often considerably less in actual turf. Mature hardwoods, established beds, and some lots with real slope toward creeks and ravines. Shade-tolerant fescue blends where there is enough light, honest mulched natural areas where there is not, and a heavy leaf season from October into December.
Timing in Salisbury
The whole program hinges on two windows: pre-emergent must be down before soil temperatures hold 50 F for several days - early March in a normal Chesterfield year, late February in a warm one - and the heavy nitrogen belongs in September, October and November, not spring. Spring feeding pushes top growth that fescue can't sustain in July.
