Fertilizing your lawn in March helps it recover from winter and prepares it for new growth. Aerating the lawn allows for better air and nutrient circulation to the roots, promoting healthier grass. Consider using a fertilizer with a slow-release nitrogen formula to provide sustained feeding throughout the spring. This type of fertilizer gradually releases nutrients, preventing excessive growth and reducing the risk of burning the lawn. Before aerating, check the soil moisture; it should be moist but not soggy for optimal results. Aerating when the soil is too dry can be difficult, while aerating when it's too wet can compact the soil.
