Our Top Grass Care Tips
From making sure you’re mowing at the right height to watering your grass properly, there are several small changes you can make to keep your yard looking great. These include the following:
Mow high and mow often. While we don’t offer lawn mowing services, we do know a thing or two about mowing. We recommend keeping the grass a bit taller than you may think is necessary. As a rule of thumb, avoid cutting off any more than a third of the grass height at a time.
Maintain a sharp mower blade. If you’re mowing with a blade that is not sharp, you may be tearing, rather than cutting, your grass. This will lead to ragged grass blades that make your yard look brownish instead of a vibrant green. That’s why we recommend sharpening mower blades or replacing them altogether at least once per season.
Finish watering in the morning. Watering in the morning is a great way to avoid evaporation in the summer and can also prevent prolonged moisture that can lead to lawn diseases.
Make sure your dog is spot trained. If your dog is relieving themselves all over your yard, this can damage your turf over time and result in a spotty appearance. It’s best to train your dog to use only one area of your outdoor space to do its business.
