Our experts have a long track record of producing maximum growth and consistent protection from outside threats. While we handle all of the intricate treatments your lawn needs, there are a few basic tasks you will need to perform on your own. Here is our expert guidance for managing those tasks.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>DIY Grass Care Tips For Birmingham Area Lawns<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>We provide detailed fertilization, weed control, core aeration, and many other treatments. However, we do not mow lawns or provide watering services, so you&#8217;ll have to carry out these simple chores on your own. Here are some things to remember:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Mowing. <\/strong>Do not cut your grass too short, as this will allow weeds to thrive. Instead, trim your lawn by no more than 1\/3 per mowing session. Mowing should take place around once per week, and you should always make sure your blade is properly sharpened. A dull blade will produce uneven and unappealing grass.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Watering. <\/strong>Proper watering should take place about twice per week, always around sunrise. The reason why you need to water at this time is that the rising sun creates perfect conditions for moisture absorption. Your grass will be able to take in as much water as it needs, while the sunrise comes in and burns off the rest. This will protect your lawn from the negative effects of over-watering.<strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Spot-Train Your Dog. <\/strong>You need to train your beloved animals to avoid urinating on your grass. This is because there is nitrogen in dog urine, and it creates dead spots around your lawn. To avoid these ugly eyesores, simply spot-train your dog to use a different part of your yard. You can make it easy by creating a gravel or mulch area dedicated to this purpose.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong>Expert Grass Care in Your Area<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>With trusted remedies to protect and enhance your lawn,\u00a0Lawn Doctor of\u00a0Birmingham-Hoover is eager to spare you from the hassle of DIY and produce a thriving landscape for your property.
