Landscaping & Lawn Care Quick Tips
"Do not water your grass at night. Watering at night will encourage
fungus to grow which can eventually kill your grass."
" Do nut cut your lawn too short. The shorter you cut it, the more
shallow the roots are. Grass cut to the proper height will look better and
will be healthier."
"Keep the blade on your lawn mower sharp. A dull blade doesn't cut your
grass, it tears it and leaves it susceptible to disease and fungus."
"Fertilize your lawn about 4 times per year starting in the spring. Your
last fertilizer application should be at the start of winter. Set up a
schedule with your landscaping service. " "If your
lawn sees heavy use or you just want to do as much as you can to help your
lawn, consider aerating it. You can find aerators at most any home
improvement store. They help reduce the compacting of soil that occurs on
a lawn." "Never cut your lawn when it is wet. This can tear your grass
and leave it exposed to mildew and fungus." |
