As a home or business owner, you are used to doing things yourself. However, when it comes to proper grass care, you are far better off letting Lawn Doctor of Utica-Macomb take over. We can save you from hours of hard work and confusing treatments. Most importantly, we can make sure the job is done right, providing your home or business with a lush, healthy, and eye-catching green lawn. All our services come at affordable rates with the full security of our industry-leading guarantee.
While trusting our professionals is the right call, there are still a few ways you can help to maintain your lawn between our visits. Let’s take a look at some helpful tips for mowing, watering, and protecting your lawn from your pets.
DIY Grass Care Tips For Macomb Area Lawns
We do not offer mowing or watering services, but we do provide expert solutions for fertilization, weed control, and more. Here are our tips for taking care of those basic duties on your own:
Mowing. The key to effective mowing is to avoid cutting your grass too short. When you cut too much, your lawn becomes vulnerable to weed growth, pests, and other issues. We recommend trimming your grass by no more than one third. Another important detail to remember, is that a dull mower blade will cut your grass unevenly. For this reason, you should always make sure your blade is sharpened or replaced.
Watering. To make sure your grass is able to absorb enough moisture, it is important to schedule your watering sessions in the early morning. We recommend two heavy watering sessions per week, just before sunrise.
Preventing dead spots. Create a gravel or mulch area and spot-train your dog to only use this zone whenever nature calls. The nitrogen in dog urine causes dead spots when applied to grass, so this is something to avoid.
