However, keeping it that way requires a few steps for grass care maintenance. If you&#8217;re a homeowner in East Cobb,\u00a0Marietta, or another nearby area in\u00a0GA, what can you do to ensure your lawn is growing strong between visits? Here are some do&#8217;s and don&#8217;ts to help you.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Do water slightly heavily.\u00a0<\/strong>Light watering can lead to a shallow root system and a weaker lawn overall. Instead, soak your soil when you water, getting the top few inches saturated. Roughly 25-30 minutes once or twice a week, only when temperatures are over 50 degrees.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Don&#8217;t water at night. <\/strong>This keeps water on grass blades\u00a0overnight, which creates conditions favorable for infections or fungus to spread. Instead, early morning before the sun rises\u00a0is the ideal time to water.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Do keep your grass longer.<\/strong> When grass blades are longer, they will keep the soil shadier, so water evaporates slowly. It will also block sunlight from getting to weed seeds, preventing germination.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Do try to train your dogs to use one\u00a0area. <\/strong>Training\u00a0your dog to go to the bathroom in just one area of your lawn is beneficial. This ensures that\u00a0your pet doesn&#8217;t kill areas across your entire lawn.\u00a0This designated spot should be in a shady or hidden location. Using\u00a0a leash to guide them to it and giving\u00a0them a reward afterwards helps.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Don&#8217;t mow with dull blades. <\/strong>If your lawn mower blades haven&#8217;t been sharpened recently, now&#8217;s the time. Otherwise, they&#8217;ll pull at and even tug out parts of your lawn, causing damage in the process.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Don&#8217;t drive on your lawn.<\/strong> Regularly driving or parking cars on your lawn is another recipe for damage. It will crush the grass, create ugly ruts, and even cause soil compaction.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong>Get More Grass Care Help from the Team Trusted in\u00a0East Cobb<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;ve worked to maintain a healthy lawn, but still spot a problem,\u00a0Lawn Doctor of Marietta is a phone call away.
