To keep your lawn looking its best, dedicated maintenance is key. Our grass care service at Lawn Doctor of Annapolis-Bowie boosts the health and appearance of lawns located all over the Edgewater, MD area. However, between applications of our treatments, there are steps you can take to keep your yard at 100%. Below, we’ll take a look at a few of these steps and how they can help you maintain grass that’s healthy, green, and stays growing consistently from season to season.

How to Keep Your Grass Healthy Between Professional Maintenance Visits

Here’s a quick look at just a few of the many steps you can take to keep your lawn in the Edgewater area looking its best between our professional grass care treatments:

Water Your Grass Early in the Day

Watering at the wrong time is a common mishap when it comes to general lawn maintenance. Watering too late in the day when the weather is warm causes the water to evaporate before it can properly hydrate your lawn, and watering at night lets the water sit on your grass too long, which can lead to lawn diseases. To bring out the best in your grass and keep it looking great, make sure to water deeply early in the morning.

Mow High and Often

Mowing the grass low can save you time, but it can also make your lawn more susceptible to weed infestations. When you mow, make sure you’re not cutting off more than a third of the grass blades to ensure that you’re not putting your lawn at risk. By mowing high, you’ll be able to maintain a lawn that stays stronger and greener through the seasons.

Keep Your Mower Blade Sharp

A dull mower blade can damage your lawn by ripping the blades of grass instead of cleanly cutting them off, causing unsightly discoloration. By sharpening your mower blades or replacing them when they start showing signs of wear, you can give your grass a clean cut and keep it looking better over time.
