Aeration is great for the lawn any time.
Mowing-Regular mowing at
a height of 2 to 3 inches and mulching if possible
is best for your lawn at this point. If
you mulch during the growing season you will want
to mow every 4 days. This will conserve
water and help prevent stress related fungi. If
you need more information, you can call our office,
or read our mowing
fact sheet.
Watering-
If it does not rain frequently and
substantially, you need to water! We notice dry
lawns all season long. Sprinklers should
always be turned on by May 1st or earlier if the
weather is dry and/or warm for a long period of
time. Do not mistake rain as a substitute
for watering. A general suggestion is to
start watering 2-3 times a week. Once temperatures
get to 65 to 70 degrees increase to 3-4 times
a week, 70 to 80 degrees increase to 4-6 times
a week and over 80 for any consistent period of
time and especially with wind 5-7 times a week.
Some lawns will even need daily or multiple times/day
watering. For more specific watering instructions
for your soil type and area give us a call or
email
us and we would be happy to send you out a
Watering
Fact Sheet.
The biggest part of
a beautiful lawn is what you do on a regular basis.
You see your lawn more than we do, so we need
your help!
AERATION VS. POWER RAKING:
We highly recommend aerating your lawn
on a yearly or bi-yearly basis. (see
notes under Aeration in Additional Services).
Power raking should only be done very early or
late in the season, otherwise it can be too stressful
and damaging to the turf. Aeration is also important
in helping fight moss and certain lawn diseases
and fungus. If you power rake, always
do so before the end of March. Power raking
later stresses turf. Fall is a great time to aerate
as well. Call us to get on the schedule.
We also offer
Organic De-Thatch to solve your thatch problems.
(see notes under Organic De-thatch in Additional
Services).

Watering:
Trees, shrubs and other planted material compete
with the lawn and each other for water.
Be sure to deep water trees and shrubs at least
2 to 3 times a month. They will let you
know if they are not receiving enough water from
either sprinkling or rain fall. In
the summer and fall months you should hose down
shrubs with high pressure water to help prevent
spider mite damage.
