Help ensure your lawn stays green and healthy:
- Don’t mow the lawn very short when it is hot, never remove more than a third of the length of the grass blades in one cut, you will get clumps of grass and it will take longer for it to decompose into your lawn.
- If your grass is growing faster due to rain or other conditions, adjust the amount of times you cut your lawn.
- Water at dusk and make sure that the area is soaked deep into the soil. This way the roots will grow deeper into the soil and aid during drought seasons
- Trim the lawn edges every week using lawn-edging weed-wacker or edging
- Use the recommended about of fertilizers.
- Never water your lawn on hot sunny days, this will increase the chances of you burning the grass and getting yellow spots.
- Don’t trim your lawn too low, if the grass is to low you will encourage weeds to move in.
- Don’t over feed your lawn. An over fed lawn will not grow faster, it will just burn.
- Feel free to trim your lawn during droughts.
- If you fertilize using stakes for your trees. Be careful not to leave any of the stake out in the open. This can burn the grass around the stake.
