DIY Grass Care Tips For Granger Area Lawns
Mow high. Taller grass is better for your lawn, so avoid cutting your grass too short. We suggest never trimming your blades by more than one third, and keeping your grass between three and four inches. Your mowing schedule should be determined by the length of your grass, rather than by time, but it should work out to about one mowing session per week.
Cut your grass evenly. To avoid an uneven cut, always make sure your mowing blade is sharpened or replaced.
Water in the morning. The heat of the day and the darkness of night both present poor conditions for water absorption. The early morning just before sunrise will provide you with the ideal middle ground to get the job done right. By watering at this time of day, you can help your grass absorb more moisture, while protecting it from the negative effects of excess watering. We recommend two watering sessions per week.
Spot-train your dog. To prevent dead spots on your grass, train your dogs to urinate elsewhere. You can set up a simple area using gravel or mulch, and train them to relieve themselves in this region.
