Question 1

When should spring yard cleanup begin in the Okanagan?

Accepted Answer

Most homeowners begin spring yard cleanup once the snow has melted and daytime temperatures consistently remain above freezing. In the Okanagan, this typically falls between late March and early April, depending on seasonal conditions.

Question 2

Should I aerate my lawn in the spring?

Accepted Answer

Aeration can be beneficial if soil has become compacted over winter. It allows water, oxygen, and nutrients to reach grass roots more effectively. Some homeowners aerate in spring, while others prefer early fall depending on lawn conditions.

Question 3

How often should irrigation systems be checked after winter?

Accepted Answer

Irrigation systems should be inspected and tested in early spring before regular watering begins. Checking for leaks, broken sprinkler heads, and clogged lines ensures the system operates efficiently and prevents water waste during the summer months.

Question 4

Is spring a good time to start landscaping projects?

Accepted Answer

Early spring is often the best time to plan and schedule landscaping improvements such as patios, retaining walls, irrigation upgrades, or new plantings. Starting early allows plants to establish before the intense heat of summer.
