DIY Grass Care Tips For Grafton Area Lawns
Never cut your grass too short. Taller grass is better protected from weed growth, pest infestations, and other issues. It also helps your lawn absorb more moisture. We recommend mowing once per week and keeping your blade set between three and four inches. Another important thing to remember about mowing is that cutting your grass with a dull blade will produce an uneven appearance. Always make sure your mowing blade is sharpened.
Water in the morning. Timing is everything when it comes to efficient water absorption. When you water during the heat of the day, the sun will burn off too much of the water, preventing your lawn from getting what it needs. Watering in the early morning is a great way to avoid this problem. We encourage you to water your grass twice per week, always at this time of day.
Prevent dead spots. For dog owners, it is crucial to create a plan for preventing dead spots. The nitrogen in your dog’s urine will do some serious damage to your lawn. To prevent this, create a specified area in your yard and train your dog to only use that space. You can use gravel or mulch to set up this zone.
