There are many specific terms that are used in residential lawn care, and being familiar with these can help you understand what’s going on with your grass. When you partner with Lawn Doctor of Chardon to improve your lawn’s health, you’ll benefit from an initial evaluation in which we diagnose existing issues and explain how our treatments can help. As we conduct this evaluation, you may encounter a few lawn care terms that you’d like to know more about.
Common Residential Lawn Care Terms You May Hear
Here are just a few of the common residential lawn care terms you could hear our experts use. We’re always happy to provide additional information about how these terms relate to your specific lawn and the treatments that we offer in the Chardon area.
- Compaction. When vehicles are parked on your lawn or it is used heavily, the soil can become tightly packed together. We refer to this condition as “compaction.” Compaction affects the health of grass roots by blocking off airflow and nutrient access, and it is often necessary to break up compacted soil to resolve the issue.
- Core aeration. Core aeration is one method of breaking up soil compaction and is conducted using heavy machinery that meticulously cores out numerous plugs of dirt and plant matter, thus allowing instant airflow to the grass roots beneath the soil.
- Pre-emergent. We take a comprehensive approach to dealing with weeds, and pre-emergent treatments are one treatment type that we offer. These treatments are used to deal with weeds that haven’t yet appeared on the surface of your lawn or flower-beds and thus offer an excellent preventative measure for keeping infestations at bay.
- Post-emergent. When weeds have already popped up on your landscape, post-emergent treatments are often necessary. Our experts identify and treat weeds with post-emergent treatments while keeping the surrounding grass healthy.
