However, it does require care based on science and facts, not fiction. Yet, with so many half-truths\u00a0and misconceptions around, it&#8217;s hard to separate the two. At\u00a0Lawn Doctor of The North Shore, we can help. We offer residential lawn care in\u00a0Huntington,\u00a0Suffolk County, and surrounding areas in NY that is tried-and-true, rooted in science and backed by years of experience. We&#8217;ll also stop you from wasting time with myths like the following:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Myth #1: Fertilizer isn&#8217;t good for the environment. <\/strong>Too much of anything, even water, is bad. However, when you apply the proper amount of fertilizer at the right time of year, you&#8217;ll promote healthy growth and color without harming the earth. That&#8217;s why hiring a professional team like Lawn\u00a0Doctor of The North Shore makes sense. We can ensure your lawn is fertilized properly and carefully.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Myth #2: Any thatch is bad for your lawn.<\/strong> A little bit of thatch is fine for your lawn and can actually help it. Thatch is dead organic matter and as it breaks down, it returns nutrients back into the soil. However, when it gets thick, then it does stop fertilizer and water from reaching\u00a0the root zone.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Myth #3:\u00a0Beer can help your lawn grow. <\/strong>Despite claims, there&#8217;s no proof that beer can help your lawn grow. Use real fertilizers instead and leave the beer in your fridge. Avoid other so-called &#8220;lawn tonics&#8221; like soda and\u00a0hydrogen peroxide and stick with traditional residential lawn care that works in the Huntington area.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Myth #4: Grass is grass \u2013 it&#8217;s all the same.\u00a0<\/strong>There are many diverse\u00a0grass species and they each have varying needs, from the amount of sunlight to water and more. As a result,\u00a0every lawn is unique and should be cared for in a customized way, not with a cookie-cutter approach.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong>Ready for Residential\u00a0Lawn Care from\u00a0Huntington&#8217;s Experts?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>When you hire\u00a0Lawn Doctor of The North Shore, you can stop wondering what&#8217;s correct\u00a0and just get solutions that work, guaranteed.
