Besides our grass care, customized to local lawns in Holmen, La Crosse, and nearby areas, keep these tips in mind. Together, we’ll get and keep your lawn in great shape.
Water deeply. If you’re watering your lawn, soak it. Don’t just let it get a little wet. The top few inches of soil should be thoroughly saturated. This ensures roots don’t become too shallow near the soil’s surface. When you water, also do it in the morning, before the sun gets too high and temperatures are hot, drying your lawn out.
Mow wisely. When you’re mowing your lawn, be careful not to cut off too much of the grass. A good rule of thumb to follow is to remove around a third of the length. This will keep it neat and tidy, without scalping it and making room for aggressive weeds.
Keep blades sharp. Your lawn mower blades should be slicing through your grass. If they’re dull, however, they will tug and tear them instead, leaving your lawn looking ragged. They can even pull out areas in your yard. Avoid this with proper lawn mower maintenance and sharpening the blades once per season.
Avoid parking on your lawn. Don’t park vehicles or heavy equipment on your lawn. It will lead to ugly ruts, crush grass, and can also cause the soil to become compacted. Likewise, any oil or liquids leaking from them can damage your lawn.
