Tips on how to get the Perfect Lawn
If the grass is always greener on the other side...it may be time to rethink your lawn care strategy. Brown, Patchy, or Weed-ridden lawns are often the result of improper care. You too can have lush, green grass by employing some lawn care fundamentals.
Mowing your lawn:
Never cut more than on-third its height. Cutting grass too short weakens the plant, lowers weed resistance, and it becomes susceptible to scorching from the sun.
Leave the clippings on the lawn as the frequently mowed lawn produces short clippings that release important nutrients as they decay and reduce water evaporation.
Mow your lawn in varying patterns.
Watering your lawn:
Water in the early morning to allow for proper penetration, avoiding excessive evaporation from the afternoon sun.
Your lawn should receive enough water to penetrate to the depth of the roots. A well-watered lawn will spring back. Signs of an under-watered lawn include drooping grass, a bluish/grey color and footprints that remain visible in the grass.
Managing weeds:
Maintain a thick coverage of grass - this is the best defense against weeds.
Reseed your lawn every spring to help encourage thicker growth.
Get rid of weeds by using herbicides. Manual weeding is also an option, but the entire root must be removed or the weed may return.
Even a real estate agent will emphasize the added benefit of "curb appeal" when selling your home, so follow these need-to-know tips to get your lawn in tip-top shape.
