Do you have a neighbor who just loves giving out residential lawn care tips and tricks? Or perhaps you’ve been searching the internet for solutions to your lawn’s problems. Whatever your method for gaining knowledge about how to treat your turf, you may have stumbled across some lawn care myths and not realized it. Lawn Doctor of North Raleigh is ready to debunk some of these widespread falsehoods and support homeowners in Wake Forest with properly caring for their grass.
Debunking Widespread Residential Lawn Care Myths
Have you encountered any of the following myths connected to lawn care? Here are the truths they’re hiding:
- Myth #1: Aerating your soil is as simple as wearing spikes on your shoes. Spiked footwear won’t resolve soil compaction issues. To promote airflow in dense soil, our technicians recommend core aeration. We can effectively conduct core aeration with our professional equipment and in-depth experience to improve grass root health.
- Myth #2: If barren spots appear on your lawn, reach for the fertilizer. Are you under the impression that fertilizer can be used to fill in bare spots on your landscape? If there’s no grass there to begin with, fertilizer can’t help in those areas. Seeding is typically the best solution for bald spots, and our experts can make sure it’s done perfectly for lush and even results.
- Myth #3: When you mow your lawn, you should cut it short. While you may know that mowing your lawn is essential to its health, you may not realize that cropping it too short can have harmful consequences due to the removal of crucial protection and shade. Although our services do not include lawn mowing, we always encourage homeowners to cut off no more than one-third of the grass blade when they mow.
