When dealing with the topic of lawn care, you are likely to run into a few terms you may never have heard before. As part of our effort to provide an informative service, we are happy to share some important definitions with you here. Our goal is to help each homeowner remain actively involved and aware of what is going on as we provide our guaranteed treatments. Let’s take a look at five common lawn care terms you are very likely to hear from our team.

Five Essential Lawn Care Terms

Fertilizer. Fertilizer is used to deliver vital nutrients to your lawn with the purpose of boosting growth and maintaining healthy grass. Due to the diversity of local lawns, choosing the correct fertilizer is not a simple task. With our experience and local lawn care knowledge, you can count on our professionals to deliver the nutrition your lawn needs.

Nutrient deficiency. Without proper care, it is easy for your lawn to become deficient in certain vital nutrients. When this occurs, you may see an off color (brown or yellow spots) pop up throughout your lawn. We provide soil testing to pinpoint any nutrient deficiencies and create a customized solution that works for your grass.

Weed. Invasive plants that tend to grow wildly and cause damage to your lawn are called weeds. These unwanted plants can steal nutrients away from your soil and turn your lawn into an eyesore. Thankfully, we have proven solutions to stop current weed growth and prevent future issues.

Compaction. Soil compaction may occur when your lawn has a lot of foot traffic or use. Excessive amounts of rainfall/water over time can contribute to compaction as well. This can cause the soil to become dense and limit the flow of nutrients and air to the grass roots and cause areas of pooling water in the lawn.

Core Aeration. This is a procedure in which we remove cores of soil (about the size of a thumb) to increase air flow and reverse the effects of soil compaction.
