That might be difficult if you have pets and kids, but try to keep their activity to your backyard to allow at least some of your lawn to rest.<\/p>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Unlike during the growing season, when grass can repair itself, winter dormancy means the blades are more fragile and susceptible to breakage and thinning. Heavy foot traffic can also compact the soil, making it harder for air, water, and nutrients to penetrate when the grass starts growing again in spring.<\/p>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>See Related: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lawnstarter.com\/blog\/lawn-care-2\/signs-compacted-soil\/\">How to Tell You Have Compacted Soil<\/a><\/p>    <h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"1-water-your-lawn-less-often\">Water Your Lawn Less Often<\/h2>    <figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lawnstarter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Watering-Plants.jpeg\" alt=\"Hand holding water hose and watering\" class=\"wp-image-118168\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lawnstarter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Watering-Plants.jpeg 800w, https:\/\/www.lawnstarter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Watering-Plants-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.lawnstarter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Watering-Plants-150x100.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/www.lawnstarter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Watering-Plants-768x512.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photo Credit: <a href=\"https:\/\/stock.adobe.com\/images\/hand-holding-water-hose-and-watering-to-the-plant-in-outdoor-garden\/231819254?prev_url=detail&amp;asset_id=231819254\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">SKT Studio<\/a> \/ Adobe Stock Free \/ <a href=\"https:\/\/stock.adobe.com\/license-terms\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">License<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Grass doesn\u2019t need as much water from December to February as it does throughout July and August. However, it still does need moisture, even if your grass is currently dormant. In the wintertime, you need to water your lawn only every <strong>once or twice a week<\/strong>, with a total of 1 inch of water.<\/p>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pay attention to how much rain you receive. It is easy to overwater in the winter. If you have any rain, push back your watering plans. <\/p>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To determine how long you need to water your lawn, set out cans where your sprinklers or irrigation system sprays water. Observe how long it takes to get 1\/2- to 3\/4-inch of water in the can. This will let you know how long to leave your irrigation system running.<\/p>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>See Related:<\/strong><br>&#8212; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lawnstarter.com\/blog\/florida\/how-often-to-water-your-lawn-in-winter-in-florida\/\">How Often Should You Water Your Lawn in the Winter in Florida?<\/a><br>&#8212; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lawnstarter.com\/blog\/florida\/lawn-watering-tips-florida\/\">Essential Lawn Watering Tips for Florida<\/a><br>&#8212; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lawnstarter.com\/blog\/lawn-care-2\/how-to-water-lawn-fall-winter\/\">How to Water Your Lawn in Fall and Winter<\/a><\/p>    <h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"2-watch-for-winter-lawn-diseases\">Watch for Winter Lawn Diseases<\/h2>    <figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lawnstarter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Large-Patch.jpg\" alt=\"Large Patch in a lawn\" class=\"wp-image-101670\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lawnstarter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Large-Patch.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.lawnstarter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Large-Patch-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.lawnstarter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Large-Patch-646x363.jpg 646w, https:\/\/www.lawnstarter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Large-Patch-150x84.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.lawnstarter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Large-Patch-768x432.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photo Credit: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ces.ncsu.edu\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">NC State Cooperative Extension<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While Pensacola\u2019s winters are mild, the combination of cool temperatures and moisture creates ideal conditions for fungal diseases to develop. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lawnstarter.com\/blog\/lawn-care-2\/large-patch-lawn-disease\/\">Large patch<\/a>, also known as brown patch (<em>Rhizoctonia<\/em> blight) appears between November and May, when temperatures are below 80 degrees.<\/p>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Large patch is especially problematic for centipedegrass and St. Augustinegrass, two of the most popular <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lawnstarter.com\/blog\/florida\/pensacola\/best-grass-types-pensacola\/\">grass types in Pensacola<\/a>.

In Pensacola, the best time to overseed is <strong>from October to November<\/strong>, though you can still do it in <strong>early December<\/strong> if you miss the ideal window.<\/p>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For the best results, wait until daytime temperatures are in the low to mid-70s. Use perennial ryegrass, a cool-season grass that germinates quickly and stays green through winter, giving your lawn a lush appearance even as warm-season grasses go dormant.<\/p>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To overseed, the first thing to do is remove all the debris and dead grass by raking the spots. Make sure you mow the lawn before you overseed. Spread the seed evenly over the bare spots and water well. You have to water frequently until the seed germinates. Of course, a winter lawn requires watering, mowing, and fertilizing.<\/p>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>See Related:<\/strong><br>&#8212; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lawnstarter.com\/blog\/lawn-care-2\/how-to-overseed-lawn\/\">How to Overseed a Lawn in 8 Simple Steps<\/a><br>&#8212; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lawnstarter.com\/blog\/lawn-care-2\/overseed-fall-fescue\/\">How to Overseed in the Fall with Fescue<\/a><br>&#8212; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lawnstarter.com\/blog\/florida\/when-to-overseed-bahiagrass-in-florida\/\">When to Overseed Bahiagrass in Florida<\/a><\/p>    <h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"4-control-weeds\">Control Weeds<\/h2>    <figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lawnstarter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Weed-removal.jpg\" alt=\"A person's hand putting weeds in a bucket\" class=\"wp-image-115712\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lawnstarter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Weed-removal.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.lawnstarter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Weed-removal-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.lawnstarter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Weed-removal-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.lawnstarter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Weed-removal-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photo Credit: <a href=\"https:\/\/stock.adobe.com\/images\/woman-hand-clearing-pulling-out-some-weed-form-her-garden-using-garden-equipment\/201539361?prev_url=detail&amp;asset_id=201539361\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Khaligo<\/a> \/ Adobe Stock Free \/ <a href=\"https:\/\/stock.adobe.com\/license-terms\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">License<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A vigorous turf is the best approach to weed control. Typically, using the proper mowing height, fertilizing, and water helps to encourage a healthy lawn. If a herbicide is needed, applying a pre-emergent herbicide in late winter will help kick the problem. The best time to apply a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lawnstarter.com\/blog\/lawn-care-2\/how-to-apply-pre-emergent-herbicide\/\">pre-emergent herbicide<\/a> in northern Florida is in <strong>early March or late February<\/strong>.<\/p>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Moreover, weeds like chickweed and henbit thrive in cooler temperatures.
