DIY Grass Care Tips For Fort Worth Lawns
Here are our suggestions for ways you can contribute to a lush and thriving lawn:
Mow properly. Avoid cutting your lawn too short. This is a common beginner’s mistake, but the general rule is to only cut about a third of the grass blade. The ideal height of your grass depends on the specific grass type, so do your research and figure out what is best for your specific lawn. Once you have this information, you should schedule your mowing sessions based on the height of your grass. Also, be sure to frequently sharpen your blade to avoid uneven cutting.
Water in the morning. When it comes to watering your yard, precision is important. Your grass needs enough moisture to survive, but too much water can cause some negative effects. For this reason, mowing in the early morning around sunrise is the best option. This will give your lawn the chance to absorb enough moisture, while allowing the rising sun to burn off the excess.
Spot-train your dog. If you have a dog, be sure to train them to avoid peeing all over your lawn. There is nitrogen in dog urine, and this can lead to dead spots. Instead, create a gravel or mulch area in your yard and train them to only relieve themselves in this spot.
