Moreover, we can accomplish much of the work required to restore the vitality of your landscape and leave you with a verdant lawn.<\/p>\n<h2>How to Improve Grass Health and Color<\/h2>\n<p>Achieving that rich green color that is a sure sign of turf health requires a number of steps to be completed:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Applying enough nitrogen.\u00a0<\/strong>Nitrogen is known to play an important role in photosynthesis, the process which produces chlorophyll and keeps grass green. As important as nitrogen is, too much can cause discolored patches on your lawn. For best results, have us administer a nitrogen-rich fertilizer on a regular basis to boost the color of your landscape.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Using only high-quality fertilizer.\u00a0<\/strong>In addition to ensuring that dosage and timing are perfect, choosing us for <a href=\"\/metamora-il\/lawn-fertilization\/\">fertilization<\/a> will also ensure your lawn benefits from the highest quality products. We use custom-blended slow-release fertilizers for exceptional results that last longer.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Promoting loose soil conditions.\u00a0<\/strong>Compacted soil is a common culprit when it comes to turf discoloration, which is why we always investigate soil conditions on lawns with pale or brown turf. If there is clearly an issue with soil compaction on your lawn, we&#8217;ll reverse the problem using our core aerator.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Watering just enough, but not too much.\u00a0<\/strong>If you want to avoid having dry, brittle, and pale grass, watering regularly is a must. However, giving your grass too much water can also hurt its color. To make sure your watering routine is optimized for a gorgeous green hue, look to our experienced experts for advice.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Mowing consistently.\u00a0<\/strong>We can also offer advice when it comes to mowing your lawn, as mowing infrequently or cutting the blades too short can harm turf health and therefore\u00a0affect its color.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Enjoy Green Grass in Metamora With Our Experts&#8217; Support<\/h2>\n<p>We look forward to helping you maintain a lawn full of green grass in:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Metamora<\/li>\n<li>Washington<\/li>\n<li>East Peoria<\/li>\n<li>Morton<\/li>\n<li>Peoria<\/li>\n<li>Or a community in the surrounding area<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>For green grass in Metamora,<a href=\"https:\/\/www.lawndoctor.com\/metamora-il\/contact_lawn_doctor\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-cke-saved-href=\"https:\/\/www.lawndoctor.com\/metamora-il\/contact_lawn_doctor\/\">contact us<\/a>\u00a0today!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Spare yourself the hassle of trying to figure out why your lawn is filled with discolored turf instead of green grass, and instead look to\u00a0Lawn Doctor of Metamora-Morton-East Peoria.
