Your Lawn is Unique • Your Lawn Care Program Should Be Too
Every lawn has its own set of characteristics and needs, that's why a one-size-fits-all approach to fertilization simply doesn't cut it. Recognizing the individuality of your lawn means acknowledging that your lawn care program should be tailored specifically to match.
From the blends of grass you have, to the soil conditions, to the microclimate your lawn experiences everyday. Every aspect of your lawn needs to be taken into consideration so we can come up with a personalized plan For Your Lawn Only!
How Long Will It Take To Get My Lawn In Shape?
This all depends on what state your lawn is in when we start our program. Generally speaking it takes anywhere from 1 to 3 growing seasons to get the lawn of your dreams depending on your property conditions. For instance, if you have a heavily weeded lawn it’s going to look worse before it looks better.
Lawn Care FAQs
A: Generally, lawns need about 1 to 1.5 inches of water per week, either from rainfall or irrigation. Water deeply and infrequently to encourage deep root growth. The best time to water is early in the morning to minimize evaporation.
A: Effective weed control combines preventive measures, like maintaining a healthy lawn, with targeted treatments using pre-emergent or post-emergent herbicides. Always follow the product's instructions carefully.
A: Choose a fertilizer that matches your lawn's specific nutrient needs. A soil test can provide insights into those needs. Look for fertilizers with a balance of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium (N-P-K) that suits your soil's requirements.
A: Yes, over-fertilizing can harm your lawn, leading to fertilizer burn, excessive growth, and increased susceptibility to pests and diseases. Signs include yellowing or browning of grass, wilting, and stunted growth. If you suspect over-fertilization, water the area deeply to help flush out excess nutrients.
A: Both types have their advantages. Organic fertilizers improve soil health over time and release nutrients slowly, but they may not provide immediate results. Synthetic fertilizers offer quick nutrient release and visible results but can contribute to soil and water pollution if used improperly. The best choice depends on your lawn care goals, budget, and environmental considerations.
