Keeping your grass healthy and growing from season to season means designing and implementing a dedicated treatment plan. If you’re in it alone, it can be tough to keep up with every single step involved in effective lawn maintenance. To help you work around these steps, we’ll take a look at some helpful tips below. But for a great-looking lawn without the constant headaches of doing the yard work yourself, choose the professional grass care we offer at Lawn Doctor of Fairfax North & South.
Important Grass Care Steps
There’s a wide range of different tasks involved with maintaining a lush, green lawn. Here’s a closer look at a few of them:
Tackle unresolved issues. Core issues, when they’re left unresolved, can hold your lawn back year after year and contribute to all sorts of shortcomings regarding its appearance. To find and start tackling these issues and imbalances, soil testing is a must. Whether you test your soil with a kit you get yourself or leave it to professionals, the information gleaned from a soil test will help you spot pH issues and other core problems, start to address them, and get your lawn back on track to looking great.
Use the right fertilizer. Fertilizing your yard is probably something you’ve done once or twice, but getting the most out of fertilization requires paying attention to the details. With the information you get from your soil test, you’ll be able to choose the fertilizer that accommodates the unique challenges your lawn is currently facing.
Water effectively. Frequent, shallow watering is a common DIY lawn care pitfall, and it leads to grass roots that are more susceptible to drought and a long list of other issues. To keep your lawn stronger and healthier in the long run, it’s crucial to water your grass to a depth of around 6 to 8 inches.
