Affordable Lawn Care in Battle Creek
Battle Creek is home to the cereal companies Kellogg and Post and the chosen home of the formerly enslaved Sojourner Truth, an abolitionist who also fought for women’s suffrage. Cereal City is also home to fluctuating temperatures that bring hot summers and cold, snowy winters that make lawn care challenging.
LawnStarter’s pros can give your grass the care it needs to protect it from the freezing winters and keep it healthy in the brief, simmering summers. Our experts mow, trim, edge, fertilize, aerate, and more to keep your lawn thriving through all four seasons.
Here's what lawn care looks like in Battle Creek:
About Your Grass
Since Battle Creek is located at the bottom of the mitten, cool-season grasses grow best. Our experts recommend these varieties:
- Perennial ryegrass: This grass germinates quickly and provides erosion control. It’s commonly mixed with Kentucky bluegrass. Mow it between 1.5 and 2.5 inches.
- Kentucky bluegrass: It tolerates the extreme temperature drops in the Mitten State. Fertilize it generously, and mow it between 2.5 and 3.5 inches.
- Tall fescue: This low-maintenance variety is versatile, heat and drought-resistant, and tolerant of moderate foot traffic. Cut it down to 2 inches once it hits 3 inches.
How often should you mow your lawn? For best results, mow once a week from April until about November. Gradually decrease mowing frequency when grass growth slows between October and November. If your grass goes dormant in the summer, it does not require cutting.
