Tips for a healthy lawn.
Mowing:
For the best looking lawn in the neighborhood, try raising the mower to the highest possible notch so you are mowing only the top 1/3 of the grass you cut. Taller grass promotes better root development, shades the ground, and blocks the sun to help fight against weed seeds from germinating.
Watering:
Watering every day is not necessary. Water once a week, but thoroughly soak the lawn. Heavy watering not only helps prevent chinch bugs but also helps roots extend deeper into the soil. The best time to water the lawn is between 5am and 10am. Here’s another helpful tip; Set tuna fish cans in various spots around the yard. Once cans are in place take note of the time it takes to fill the can. Once the tuna fish can is full, you know you have given your yard ample water.
