There’s a unique terminology that comes with lawn care. And whether you hear this terminology from the associate at the hardware store, your neighbors, or our team when we come by to treat your lawn, it’s helpful to be at least a little familiar with some key terms. We’ll highlight a few of these terms below, what they mean and where they might pop up in relation to our residential lawn care in the Alpharetta, GA area.
Four Essential Lawn Care Terms
There are several unique terms involved in diagnosing and treating local lawns. Let’s take a quick look at some of these must-know terms and some situations in which these terms might pop up:
Aeration. When your soil is packed too tightly together, it can stop your roots from expanding freely and prevent resources like water and nutrients from reaching them. Aeration refers to breaking up compacted soil, and it’s important because it allows your roots to grow while restoring the essential circulation of resources to your lawn’s root systems.
Anaerobic. Without sufficient amounts of oxygen, your lawn won’t be able to support healthy grass growth and thrive from season to season. However, whether due to compacted soil or one of many other issues, some lawns have trouble accessing this oxygen. We refer to these lawns as anaerobic, which means without oxygen.
Pre-emergent. Our team utilizes a comprehensive treatment plan to fight a wide range of different weeds. Some of these weeds are referred to as pre-emergent, which simply means that they’re still underground and they haven’t sprouted yet.
Post-emergent. Post-emergent weeds, unlike pre-emergent weeds, have popped up through the surface of your lawn. Fighting these weeds quickly is essential because of their ability to quickly spread.
