5 Best Practices for a Great Looking Lawn
1. Mow Weekly. By mowing weekly, lawns grow thick and dense. Scheduled mowing prevents grass blades from growing tall and blocking out the sun. Weekly scheduled lawn care also prevents gaps between the blades that otherwise, create an environment for weeds to grow. Allowing the grass to grow too long, inevitably can lead to the tendency to over correct and scalp your yard! For example, with St. Augustine grass, 5-inch grass being over corrected to the proper height of 2-3 inches can be a drastic change to the Eco system of your lawn. This in turn creates stress on your yard. A distressed lawn makes it easier for disease or further weed growth. Repairing a distressed lawn is possible, but the cost and time can be avoided with weekly lawn care.
Keeping your lawn mowing on a schedule that does not exceed 10 days is preferred. If the lawn care goes over that time frame, you may need to re-adjust your lawn mower height to allow for a controlled correction of your grass blade height.
Pro tip: Frequent mowing is the single biggest reason golf courses and professional baseball fields have a more prominent lush look than your neighbor’s yard. Schedule your Conroe lawn care mowing twice a week to have the best looking lawn on the block.
2. Keep to a fertilization schedule. A fertilization maintenance schedule, gives your lawn the best chance to perform by feeding it nutrients when the grass needs it the most. Your yard will flourish by maintaining its health. Be careful not to over-fertilize, as this can have the adverse effect. By not over fertilizing, you prevent dehydrating your lawn. In other words, you avoid burning your lawn.
If you do over fertilize and your lawn avoids being burned, you’d think that might be a good thing, however you may have triggered a different lawn problem. It may grow too fast and can have the domino effect of needing additional lawn mowing, which if you don’t provide, can lead to scalping your lawn and the evil cycle of repair continues.
3. Don’t bag grass clippings. Use the free mulch your yard provides! Much of the nutrients your lawn needs can be found in itself. Take advantage of nature and your grass will be healthier all the more for it.
4. Sharpen your blades. The story of “The Wood-Choppers Contest” comes to mind. Find the story, it’s good for the soul as well as highly applicable in lawn care. It benefits both your lawn and it is telling of the service we provide. Dull blades rip grass rather than making a clean cut. This rough treatment can make your grass susceptible to the stress that can lead to drought and disease.
5. Choose the best lawn care company. Let us take care of your lawn care. It’s what we do best. The theme throughout lawn care is maintenance. Maintenance of mowing, nutrition, equipment.
