The fact is, lawn care can be much more complicated than it initially appears. Each lawn requires a different approach, tailored to grass plants’ species and age, soil composition, and other distinct factors. To make it tougher, there are a lot of misunderstandings about caring for a healthy lawn. Let’s take a look.
Three Common Residential Lawn Care Myths To Watch For in Rochester
Finding the right approach for your lawn takes time, care, and expertise—and if you’re attempting it on your own, it’s easy to fall for popular lawn care myths without realizing it. Let’s debunk a few myths, and talk about how professional care can make a difference:
Any fertilizer will have positive effects. Fertilizers are loaded with nutrients—so any fertilizer will give you great results, right? Unfortunately, that’s just not true. The right fertilizer blend will depend on what’s already in your soil. Too much nitrogen, for example, can cause your grass to turn yellow and even die. With our custom fertilization services, homeowners in Rochester can always get high-quality products tailored to each lawn.
Aerator shoes are a good investment. Every so often, aerator shoes resurface in popularity. These spiked shoes are intended to aerate your soil while you mow. In reality, they don’t provide the thorough coverage needed for effective aeration—and worse yet, studies show they can actually cause your soil to become further compacted. Fortunately, we use professional methods to comprehensively aerate your soil as needed.
There’s no such thing as too much watering. Grass needs water to survive, so it’s easy to think that over-watering is better than nothing at all. In fact, over-watering your lawn can cause significant damage to soil quality and to your grass plants, even causing plant death. When you choose our residential lawn care services for lawn seeding or other treatments, we can recommend a watering schedule for your turf.
