But like everything in regards to lawn maintenance, there’s a caveat to all.bSome years, in the event the weather remains on the highway, we can begin certain jobs somewhat earlier than usual. Sometimes though, you may have to wait a bit longer. Within this article, I will outline the lawn maintenance calendar I operate by annually. This yard calendar is intended to be a guide only. Therefore don’t stick to this like glue simply because it is in black and white on a monitor screen. Regrettably, we can not control the weather so you’re going to need to use your very best judgement in regards to the time of individual tasks. .And that is the weather. Have a look at just what the weather is doing and plan your jobs around that. To help you best I could, I’ve broken this down lawn treatment schedule month by month so you understand exactly what to do and if.
At Eagle Trends, we know that maintaining a lush lawn in the UAE’s unique climate requires flexibility and expert timing. While this calendar provides the ideal schedule, remember that weather fluctuations may require adjustments – the key is observing your lawn’s condition and local microclimate. Here’s our professional month-by-month breakdown:
✔ Monitor soil temperature – More reliable than calendar dates
✔ Watch for seasonal transitions – Adjust care during shift periods
✔ Keep irrigation systems optimized – Change schedules quarterly
✔ Observe grass growth patterns – Let your lawn “tell you” its needs
