Our Top Grass Care Tips
All you’ll need to think about is maintaining the health of your yard in between the regularly scheduled visits from our team members that will form your customized lawn care plan.
Our tips for keeping your yard healthy in these intervals are as follows:
- Be vigilant about monitoring your dog’s habits. Dog urine can have a negative effect on grass because it contains so much nitrogen. You’ll thus need to avoid allowing your pooch to do his business anywhere he chooses. Spot training is a great way to keep your turf green and prevent overexposure to nitrogen.
- Mow with a sharp blade. We don’t offer lawn mower maintenance or mowing services, but we can help you understand how to change your mowing habits to best suit your lawn. One thing to remember is that maintaining a sharp blade is crucial. Otherwise, your turf will take on a grayish color when ragged edges are formed by a dull blade.
- Keep grass on the taller side, but mow often. Instead of cutting your grass very short every once in a while, mow regularly and keep it tall. This approach helps grass stay healthy by keeping weeds away and giving shade to the soil.
- Water for prolonged periods. The point of watering is to ensure that moisture reaches deep into the soil where it is actually needed. If you only water for short periods of time, you’ll just wet the grass rather than reaching the roots.
