This is crucial to ensure your lawn is healthy from the ground up. If it&#8217;s not, it can become weak and susceptible to issues with weeds, pests, diseases, and other problems.<\/p>\n<p>So, how can you keep your grass in great shape between treatments? Here are a few quick tips:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Water in the morning, between 6 and 10 am.<\/strong> This will keep the water from evaporating too quickly, which happens if you water during the day. If you water at night, moisture sits on the lawn overnight, which can lead to infection. If you have an automatic sprinkler, make sure it&#8217;s working and calibrated properly.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Water weekly and deeply. <\/strong>Don&#8217;t water a little each day. This can actually harm your lawn by creating a shallow root system, putting roots at risk of drying out. Instead, water infrequently, yet deeply, soaking your lawn when you do.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Know the right lawn height. <\/strong>Short lawns tend to get damaged and dry out faster when the summer heat is high. They are also more susceptible to weed infestations. Taller grass, on the other hand, will develop a stronger and deeper root system, since the shade keeps your lawn cooler. This also prevents weed seeds from germinating. So aim for around 1\/3 off the height when mowing.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Make sure your mower is maintained. <\/strong>If your lawn mower has dull blades, they can pull at your grass rather than slice through it. Dull blades can even tear out areas on your lawn. Avoid this altogether by sharpening your lawn mower blades at least once every season.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong>Get More Grass Care Help from the Team Trusted in\u00a0Lake Villa<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>If you do notice an issue and you&#8217;re not sure what&#8217;s going on, give our team a call.
