Our Experts’ Lawn Maintenance Tips for Thick Grass
The process for promoting and maintaining thick turf growth requires several steps to be taken while conducting various lawn maintenance activities in the Caramel area. Here’s a closer look at the activities that are essential for thicker grass and our tips for ensuring they are done properly:
- Applying phosphorus-rich fertilizer. Because phosphorus plays such a key role in plant root health and growth, your grass should have unhindered access to this nutrient. However, balance and timing are key when it comes to fertilization. That’s why we always suggest leaving this process to experts who know exactly how to provide the right balance of phosphorus to your turf.
- Fighting off weeds. The presence of weeds can also keep your grass from becoming thicker because they actively take up limited space for root growth, as well as limited resources such as water and nutrients. A strategic approach to fighting off invasive plants is necessary. Our team has experience in this area and can provide systematic treatments that prevent weeds from germinating and also knock out those that are already popping up on your lawn.
- Breaking up soil compaction. When soil becomes densely compressed, there’s no chance to grow a dense lawn. Compacted soil cuts off plant root systems from oxygen, suffocating them while also giving them no extra space for growth. We conduct a process called core aeration to reverse compaction, make room for root growth in the soil, and allow oxygen to freely circulate underground.
