With all of the myths associated with residential lawn care, Moore residents often have trouble figuring out where to begin. With expert service from Lawn Doctor of South Oklahoma City-Norman, you can forget about those complex DIY projects and secure guaranteed professional service for a great price. Along with our expert support, we also provide tips and guidance to help our clients understand their lawns. To start, let’s go over five\u00a0common myths about lawn care.<\/p>\n
Myth #1: Cut your grass short to save time. <\/strong>It may seem logical that by cutting your grass shorter, you will be able to mow less often. However, trimming your grass by more than a third\u00a0will leave it vulnerable to disease and other issues. You should mow about once per week, depending on the length of your grass.<\/p>\n Myth #2: Solve your weed issues by pulling them by hand. <\/strong>Pulling weeds by hand is not the best way to get rid of these invasive plants. If you fail to get the entire root and stem, the weed will simply grow back. Professional weed control\u00a0from our experienced crew is a far more effective option.<\/p>\n Myth #3: Water your lawn every day.<\/strong> Too much water is harmful for your lawn, so you should aim to water only twice per week. Each watering session should take place just before sunrise.<\/p>\n Myth #4: Fertilizing your lawn twice annually is enough. <\/strong>Your lawn needs a steady supply of nitrogen, phosphorous, and potassium in order to maintain healthy growth and protection from outside threats. This usually requires between six and eight fertilization treatments annually. Our experts will create a fertilization schedule based on your specific lawn to deliver the right supply of vital nutrients.<\/p>\n Myth #5: Thatch is bad for your lawn. <\/strong>A thin layer of thatch is part of a healthy lawn ecosystem. However, when this layer becomes too thick, it can become a hot spot for pests and disease. Your thatch layer should remain below 1\/2 inch in thickness.<\/p>\n In order to keep your lawn in great shape, we always customize our work to match your exact needs. Our experts can provide fertilization treatments, weed control, power seeding, mosquito and tick control, and many other effective treatments, all backed by our industry-leading satisfaction guarantee.
