Without ongoing maintenance, your lawn’s overall health can suffer. Our team utilizes comprehensive services to keep your lawn looking its best. But when our technicians show up to administer the required services, you may hear some industry-specific terms you’re not familiar with. We’ll walk you through some of these essential terms below and where they fit into our residential lawn care in the Oyster Bay, NY area.
Essential Lawn Care Terms
There are several industry-specific terms that you may hear at some point during the lawn care process. Here are some of these terms and where they might pop up:
1. Treatment
Like us, sometimes your lawn has health conditions that require a little TLC. And also, like us, the general term for these separate maintenance processes is “treatment.” Treatments can include anything from fertilization to weed control, and our team offers a full range of them to help your lawn bounce back from a wide range of health issues and imbalances.
2. Dormant
There are many types of weeds we fight with our weed control treatments. Some of these weeds aren’t active throughout their entire lifespan. When weeds or pests are alive but inactive, we refer to them as “dormant.” Dormant weeds and pests can be a major issue because they can come back at the same time as new ones are moving in, creating a bigger problem.
3. Brown Patch
There are several diseases that can develop in your lawn due to nutrient deficiencies and several other issues. “Brown patch” is just one of these lawn diseases, and it’s caused by a common fungus. This issue is treated with a fungicide, but it’s best prevented with effective general lawn upkeep.
4. pH
Acidity is a big part of your lawn’s overall health. The acidity is measured on the “pH” scale, which stands for “potential hydrogen.” If your lawn is too acidic or too alkaline (which lies on the other end of the scale), your soil won’t be able to effectively support healthy grass growth.
