Grass Care Tips to Use Between Treatments
There are several steps you can take to keep your grass healthy and growing from season to season. Let’s take a closer look at some of these steps and how they can help you keep your lawn greener and stronger over time.
One of the most important parts of keeping your lawn healthy is keeping weeds out of it. At Lawn Doctor of the Jersey Shore, we use some of the most effective treatments around to make short work of both active and pre-emergent weeds. However, to keep weeds at bay between our treatments, continuous prevention is essential. We’ll work with you to put preventative measures in place to reduce weed activity between our weed control treatments.
Mowing and watering aren’t services we offer, as they’re everyday maintenance tasks, but it takes a little know-how to get them right. Issues with mowing and watering are common culprits of lawn issues, and they can have a lasting effect if mistakes are continuously made. To help you get the most out of mowing and watering, here are a few key tips:
- Water Early – Watering too late in the day can eventually cause your lawn’s health to decline. Water evaporates too quickly if you water in the afternoon, and evening watering can lead to mildew and other lawn diseases. For green, well-hydrated grass, make sure to water early in the morning.
- Mow High – Keeping your grass short increases the likelihood of weeds creeping in, which is why mowing high is essential. To keep your grass lush and more resistant to weeds, be careful not to remove more than a third of your grass blades when you mow.
- Service Your Mower – Dull blades leave ragged, unsightly grass edges behind, which is why it’s important to sharpen or replace mower blades when they wear down.
