With our expert grass care for Grand Ledge area properties,\u00a0Lawn Doctor of East Lansing-Okemos-DeWitt provides expert service backed up by our leading guarantee.<\/p>\n<p>In order to maintain proper health and protection for your lawn between our visits, there are a few duties you&#8217;ll need to manage on your own. Here are our DIY tips for maintaining a healthy and green lawn when we&#8217;re not around.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>DIY Grass Care Tips For Grand Ledge Area Lawns<\/strong><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Mowing. <\/strong>It is common for new homeowners to mow their lawns too often and accidentally create some serious issues. When your grass is mowed too short, it can become more vulnerable to disease, weed growth,\u00a0and other problems. A good rule to follow is to never cut more than 1\/3 of your grass blades. Also, you should do some research about the proper length for your specific grass type, and use that as your target.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Watering. <\/strong>Over-watering is also a problem. Your lawn needs ample amounts of moisture, but it has to be done the right way. Watering sessions should take place around twice per week, and should always occur in the early morning hours. By timing these sessions around sunrise, you can provide enough moisture while protecting your lawn from the negative consequences of too much water. The rising sun will burn off the water your lawn does not need.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Spot-Train Your Dog. <\/strong>If you have a pet dog, containing their backyard activity is crucial. That&#8217;s because when they pee freely throughout your lawn, the nitrogen in their urine can cause dead spots. Create a designated area using either mulch or gravel, and train your furry friend to only use that area for bathroom activities.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong>Expert Grass Care in the Local Area<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>With vast experience, effective methods, and the ability to adapt to each situation,\u00a0Lawn Doctor of East Lansing-Okemos-DeWitt\u00a0is proud to offer effective grass care secured by our leading guarantee.
