To maintain lush, green grass, it’s essential to take the right steps at the right time. Navigating these steps on your own, however, can be tough. Below, we’ll go through a few of the most important steps in lawn maintenance to give you a head start. But to boost your lawn’s health and appearance without the guesswork and hidden costs that come with DIY lawn care, turn to your local grass care professionals at Lawn Doctor of Columbus-Phenix City.
How to Achieve Your Green Grass Goals
Here’s a closer look at some of the most important steps involved in achieving and maintaining a great-looking lawn:
Soil testing. To give your lawn everything it needs to stay healthy and produce consistent grass growth, you first need a clear picture of your soil profile. Whether you get your soil tested by professionals or conduct testing on your own, learning the ins and outs of your soil’s composition will give you the information you need to start addressing the issues that are holding your lawn back.
Effective fertilization. Without enough nutrients, it’s difficult for your lawn to stay healthy through the seasons. Fertilization is a key part of lawn maintenance because it provides these nutrients, but getting it right is essential. To get the best results from fertilization, make sure to fertilize at the right time and use a fertilizer that suits your lawn’s unique needs.
Weed control. Along with affecting the appearance of your lawn, weeds can also drain its health. Weeds take up valuable resources that your lawn needs to sustain healthy grass growth, which is why effectively managing these invasive plants is an essential part of maintaining healthy, green grass.
Mowing to the right height. The height of your grass does much more than just determine your lawn’s appearance. Grass that’s too long or too short can affect growth and your lawn’s development over time. The correct height varies by grass type. Check with our team to get the correct height for your grass type(s).
