DIY Grass Care Tips For Huron Area Lawns

Mowing. Effective mowing requires some basic knowledge about your specific grass type, including the ideal length for that variety. Mowing should be done about once per week, based on the length of your grass. You should always avoid cutting your grass too short, as this will put your lawn at risk of weed growth, pest issues, disease, and more. Also, avoid mowing when drought-like conditions occur. In order to avoid uneven grass that doesn’t look quite right, always make sure your lawn mower blade is sharpened properly.

Watering. Watering your lawn requires the right timing. When you water at night or at dusk, you risk adding too much moisture and creating some problems for your grass. If you water during the middle of the day, it may be too hot for your lawn to absorb enough moisture before the water is burnt off. By watering in the early morning, you can take advantage of the ideal conditions and give your grass the water it needs before the rising sun burns off the rest.

Spot-training your dog. In order to prevent dead spots on your lawn due to nitrogen-rich dog urine, you should create a designated area consisting of gravel or mulch. Train your furry friend to do their business in this area, and never on your grass.
