3 Common Misnomers About Residential Lawn Care
It can be hard to figure out what’s right for your lawn, especially when you’re trying to handle it on your own. The good news is that when you schedule treatment from Lawn Doctor of Rochester, our technicians can always provide you with information about lawn care. Here’s a few common myths to be wary of:
- Any fertilizer works. It’s easy to think that when your lawn needs nutrients, any fertilizer will get the job done. After all, fertilizers are loaded with nutrients, right? In reality, the wrong fertilizer can overload the soil with the wrong nutrients, causing fertilizer burn and other harm to your lawn’s health. It’s why we always take care to assess your soil and blend custom fertilizer ingredients before treatment.
- Over-watering beats under-watering. Your grass plants need water to survive, so it’s understandable that many homeowners tend to over-water rather than under-water. That said, over-watering can put enormous strain on your turf! This can wash away soil or cause it to become compressed, while also drowning plant roots. If you’re not sure about when you should water, you can always ask our team about a recommended watering schedule.
- Spiked shoes can handle aeration. You may think it’s enough to put on aerator shoes when mowing the lawn or doing yardwork. Unfortunately, these shoes can’t provide the level of coverage needed for proper, thorough aeration. With our lawn services, we can comprehensively aerate your lawn, loosening the soil to build stronger, deeper grass roots.
