We offer a range of services and treatment types for lawns in South Windsor that are all based on our proven experience with improving turf health.
Debunking Widespread Residential Lawn Care Myths
Many DIY lawn care tips and tricks are based on widespread myths and don’t generate the results they promise. Such lawn care mistakes can be costly in terms of both your budget and your free time. Here are some lawn care myths that could be causing you to waste your resources:
- Myth #1: A weed infestation can be halted by hand-pulling weeds. Pulling weeds out by hand is both labor-intensive and tedious, and it doesn’t always stop weed growth. In many instances, pieces of the weed’s root are left behind, allowing the plant to grow back. Our professionals can deliver more effective results through expert weed control treatments.
- Myth #2: Your lawn only requires fertilization a couple of times each year. If you’re only fertilizing your lawn every six months, it is likely craving macronutrients such as nitrogen. Without these nutrients, it can’t produce that beautiful green color you love or stay healthy when faced with threats. We’ll build a fertilization plan for your yard that includes more frequent treatments, between six and eight times a year, and gives your grass consistent access to vital nutrients.
- Myth #3: You can water your lawn throughout the day. In fact, you may be wasting water if you’re watering your grass in the afternoon. Watering in the early morning is best as it helps avoid the risk of evaporation that comes with the rising sun.
