Our Experts’ Lawn Maintenance Tips for Thick Grass
Once we’ve examined your lawn’s health to better understand the state of its root system, we may suggest several treatments to encourage robust root health. Here are some tasks that often need to be completed to see a transformation:
- Fertilization with a phosphorus-rich treatment. Many homeowners focus on fertilizing their lawns with nitrogen, not realizing that this macronutrient needs to be balanced out by just the right amount of phosphorus. Phosphorus helps stimulate plant root expansion, and its importance shouldn’t be underestimated. To make sure your grass has adequate amounts of phosphorus in its diet, look to us for expertly applied fertilization treatments.
- Aeration of overly dense soil. You may not realize that your soil is what’s preventing your grass roots from growing healthy and strong. Compacted soil can cut plant roots off from air and water. Our core aeration treatment can stop this process and prevent turf root systems from becoming strangled.
- Control of stealthy weed growth. Weeds can also cause problems for grassroots, crowding them out and stealing their precious resources. Rather than waiting to see a weed invasion unfold, reach out to our team for preventative weed control treatments.
