DIY Grass Care Tips For Holly Springs Area Lawns
- Mowing. Cutting your grass is a fairly simple process, with a few simple mistakes to avoid. When you cut your grass too short, you risk inviting pest and weed issues. To avoid this, we recommend mowing your lawn once per week, and never trimming your grass by more than 1/3 of its height at the time of mowing.
- Watering. Over-watering your lawn can lead to disease. In order to deliver the ideal amount of moisture without causing any unwanted issues, water your grass in the early morning, just as the sun is about to rise. By doing so, you can give your grass the opportunity to take in enough moisture, while letting the heat from the upcoming sunrise evaporate the rest. The ideal amount to water is 1/3 of an inch every time you water. To determine how much you are watering, place any flat bottom and straight sided container in the middle of your sprinkler pattern and then measure. Adjust your watering time to match the time it took to get 1/3 of an inch in the container.
- Pet Training. In order to prevent dead spots from the nitrogen in dog urine, spot-train your beloved pets to only pee in designated areas of your yard. A great way to set this up is to create an area of gravel or mulch and use this as their designated space.
