Are you green with envy when you look at your neighbor&#8217;s pristine lawn? There&#8217;s good news for you. At\u00a0Lawn Doctor of Charleston, we have the information you need to not only boost the health of your grass, but its green color, too. And it&#8217;s simpler than you think. Follow these tips for achieving\u00a0emerald green grass &#8211; and your own envy-inducing lawn.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Mind the 1\/3 Rule When Mowing.\u00a0<\/strong>Many homeowners make the mistake of mowing with their blades set too low so they don&#8217;t have to mow as often. But this puts stress on grass, making it more susceptible to drought, disease, insects and weeds. Instead, keep your mower blades higher and mow more frequently. When you do, don&#8217;t cut more than 1\/3 of the height at a time.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Fight Nutrient Deficiencies.\u00a0<\/strong>If your lawn isn&#8217;t getting the nutrients it needs to flourish, then it&#8217;s g<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-1003\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lawndoctor.com\/summerville-sc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/100\/2016\/01\/2015-guys-pictures-003-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"large field of green grass in Charleston\" width=\"259\" height=\"194\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lawndoctor.com\/summerville-sc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/100\/2016\/01\/2015-guys-pictures-003-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.lawndoctor.com\/summerville-sc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/100\/2016\/01\/2015-guys-pictures-003-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.lawndoctor.com\/summerville-sc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/100\/2016\/01\/2015-guys-pictures-003-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.lawndoctor.com\/summerville-sc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/100\/2016\/01\/2015-guys-pictures-003.jpg 1440w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 259px) 100vw, 259px\" \/>oing to look weak and discolored. That&#8217;s why Lawn Doctor has a\u00a0 proper fertilization plan that plays such an important part\u00a0in your lawn. When fertilizing,we\u00a0 make sure to use a good blend with\u00a0nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium. And also a pre-emergent herbicide mixed in, so as to minimize\u00a0weeds sprouting up in your lawn.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Water Your Grass Properly.\u00a0<\/strong>Another common mistake homeowners make is watering their lawns frequently, for only a few minutes at a time. As experts in green grass, Lawn Doctor of Charleston knows\u00a0this promotes shallow roots and leads to weak growth and discolored grass. Instead, water deeply &#8211; for an hour or more &#8211; once a week. This will ensure your lawn gets the hydration it needs for stronger roots and healthier grass.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Call the Experts of Green Grass in Charleston<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Want a greener lawn, but don&#8217;t have the time or expertise to devote to the process?
