Like any other industry, lawn care has its own unique terminology. There are lawn maintenance terms describing everything from the different aspects of your lawn’s health to the steps we take to correct existing issues or imbalances. Below, we’ll walk you through some essential terminology, what these terms mean, and where you might hear them in the lawn care process. With a greater understanding of industry lingo, you’ll have a better understanding of our overall approach to residential lawn care in the Keller, TX area.
Four Essential Residential Lawn Care Terms
Here’s a quick look at some common terms that can pop up throughout the residential lawn care process:
Cool-season grass. There are many types of grass that can populate local lawns, and these grasses are often grouped by the weather in which they’re able to thrive. Cool-season grasses, for example, thrive in cooler weather. Though cool-season grasses are found in the North more often than in the South, there are a handful of cool-season grasses that are native to Texas. However, in extreme heat and drought conditions, cool-season grasses often struggle.
Warm-season grass. Warm-season grass thrives in the heat. However, because of the property that makes it great in warmer weather, warm-season grass is vulnerable in the colder months. Warm season grasses include Zoysia and Bermudagrass.
Compaction. Your soil’s composition plays a big part in determining your lawn’s overall health. Because of this, when your soil is pressed too tightly together, it can spell trouble for an otherwise healthy lawn. The process of soil getting packed together more tightly is called compaction, and it causes issues in your lawn by constricting your root systems and preventing resources from circulating under your lawn’s surface.
Aeration. The process of breaking apart soil that has become compacted is called aeration. Aeration is typically done with manual implements, but our team utilizes heavy-duty machines called core aerators to get the job done faster.
